Neumann NDH 30 Black Edition Open-Back Studio Headphones, Black

The NDH 30 (awarded the TEC Award in 2023) represents a circumaural, open-back headphone designed with exceptional detail resolution and precise stereo imaging, delivering razor-sharp localization. Its soundstage is linear, and its transient response is superior, rendering it well-suited for demanding applications such as mixing and mastering.

Constructed from top-tier materials like spring steel and aluminum, the NDH 30 shares notable similarities with the NDH 20 in terms of quality and user-friendly attributes. However, distinguishing it is the open-back design, which leverages its dynamic 38 mm transducers as acoustic dipoles. This configuration optimally showcases its refined sonic traits, characterized by rapid transient response, well-defined bass frequencies, uncolored midrange, and transparent trebles. In essence, the NDH 30 embodies a neutral sonic profile, faithfully reproducing the signal without any coloration.
