ABYSS AB1266 Phi TC – Reference Planar Headphone

Equipped with patented TC (Total Consciousness) planar drivers, the AB1266 Phi TC reveals the finest natural nuances in music while effortlessly delivering massive, controlled bass. Its presentation is defined by extreme resolution, organic tonality and effortless authority.

Three-dimensional stage, lifelike realism

From the very first note, the AB1266 creates a holographic soundstage: the piano slightly to the left, vocals centered, drums precisely placed in space. Natural spatial cues—without artificial effects—bring every recording to life. From the power of a grand symphony to the delicacy of strings, it delivers a private concert from the front row.

New hybrid pads for comfort & precision

Newly designed hybrid earpads combine premium lambskin leather and Ultrasuede with a soft memory foam core for enhanced comfort and acoustic control. The elegant, fully adjustable leather headband allows this large headphone to sit weightlessly and comfortably for long listening sessions.

Build quality & acoustics

Each frame is CNC-machined from aluminum and assembled with stainless steel hardware in the ABYSS USA factory. The planar-magnetic transducer design features an ultra-thin diaphragm for effortless dynamics from deep bass to airy treble. Integrated resonance control ensures a pure, coloration-free presentation, while the dual-tone polymer-ceramic coating provides one of the most durable finishes available.

Comfort & fit

Hybrid lambskin/Ultrasuede pads: soft touch surface, perforated leather exterior for breathability & bass authority
Magnetic pad adjustment for a perfect fit and angle
Redesigned French leather headband with motion isolation, distributing weight evenly – a floating fit with embossed ABYSS logo
Laser-engraved serial numbers for authenticity and collector value
