Muting The Noise

FINALLY BACK IN STOCK: A major coup for our MTN shop: The best monitoring headphones on the market, exclusively outside of Japan.

The Phonon SMB-01 studio monitor headphone is a high-end product, which uses a trademark (TM) technology to create an unparalleled listening experience. It delivers excellent space definition, superior range and a crystal-clear sound scope.

A key feature of the technology is the PHD (ausschreiben), a very sensitive vibrating metal device that is connected to the + and - poles of the headphone speakers. The PHD vibrates in harmony with sound waves coming from the speakers, and simultaneously transmits ultrasound waves. These ultrasound waves compensate for the delay in the different speeds of frequency transmission caused by the speakers aligning. The follow up effect is the enhancement of your perception and sense of hearing, making you feel and experience the "real sound" of the original waveform. Result: a more precise and detailed sound scope.

These are simply the most captivating and stunning listening experiences we ever heared on headphones. Big support comes from DJ Deep (E&S, Paris). Here is, what he thought of the headphone speakers: "In my opinon the Phonon headphones give you a unique stereo experience, the sound is powerful, warm and very wide, yet very precise and defined and the stereo image is absolutely awesome!"

The Phonon liquid is a revolutionary material, completely different from previously available contact cleaners. It is an electrical junction restructuring fluid based on the most advanced nanotechnology and patented in the US. The 12 trillion nanodiamonds contained in this product are designed to flow inbetween the metal gaps of your contacts, noticeably enhancing electrical conduction. Thanks to all of the liquid's characteristics, you will greatly improve the quality of your audio and video signal transfers.

How does it work? Single crystalline materials, because of the uniformity of their crystal faces, are like a paved road where mobility is smooth and electron speed high. As smooth and clean the surface of an electrical contact may seem, at the nano level it is in fact very rough like a "dirt road" preventing a normal transfer of electrons. By filling that "dirt road" with unique 5nm (1/10,000 the width of a hair) particles of nanodiamonds the liquid homogenizes the surface and transform the "dirt road" into a beautifully paved one, allowing a faster electron mobility. The result is that the electrons accelerate at a much higher speed and improve electric conductivity. But you will also be able to reduce electric power loss like contact resistance and ensuing heat generation is lowered.

The diamonds inside the nano-particles are semi-conductors. The particles have an electronic mobility of approx. 1,800 for electrons and 1,600 in the hole, making the nano-diamonds of the liquid one of the fastest materials available. All metals show an increase in electrical resistance when the temperature of the contacts rise, but semi-conductors present the opposite. When the semi-conductor particles flow in between the contact's gaps, it not only decreases the electrical resistance but thanks to its excellent heat transfer properties, the internal heat is released. The release leads to a better flow of the high-frequency current.

Please check the opinion of George Stavro, partner of Steve Dash at Integral Sound: "Thanks so much for the introduction to the Phonon products especially the enhancer/contact liquid. I have had a problematic input connector on one of my EQs in my studio. Since applying the Phonon liquid, it has never given me a problem again. I have used some of the best contact enhancers available in the past but seen to find they need constant application. I have yet to reapply the Phonon liquid and the EQ has not missed a beat since which made me go through my entire equipment and apply it to all the input and output connectors."

Due to its colloidal dispersion, the Phonon liquid has the benefit of not settling, nor aggregating, making it a very stable material. Deterioration of sound quality due to oxidation won't occur as the liquid is oil-free. Furthermore, unlike grinding-based cleaners you do not need to worry about the shaving of your gears' contact surface.

How To Use
Apply as little liquid as possible on the contact, wipe it off well with a cloth and connect once dry. After application, make sure to clean the brush thoroughly before placing it back in the bottle.
