Reference planar headphone delivering ultra-high resolution, powerful bass and luxurious long-term comfort: AB1266 Phi TC
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.
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.
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.
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.
