I’m more interested in how it compares to the Diana TC. Please at the measured response to your website for this headphone, as you have for the TC. Thanks!

[@ABYSSHeadphones]

You'll love it Bob!

Thanks for this extended clarification. Now what "MR" stands for and what "DZ" stands for?...is there is any meaning to these 2 abbreviations...Thanks, Olivier Mannie, Belgium

[@testsurname5679]

Any plan to release new Ab-1266 or retire ?

[@wildsprig]

Why are you not comparing the DZ with the TC? If it's the "highest resolution" Diana, does this mean it's better than the TC? In a prior video you said the DZ uses the same "frame set" as the MR: does that mean it uses the same driver as the MR but tuned differently?

[@ABYSSHeadphones]

The latest Diana models MR and DZ have different drivers and tunings. They share machined aluminum frame components, and both now ship with the new DZ headband with soft head sling. In comparing either to the older TC design, everything has changed. Suggest watching The Engineering behind Abyss Diana MR video for more insight into these latest model Diana's, kzbin.info/www/bejne/f2bLh5yNYrh9Zrs

[@seongsooy.8569]

do i need to pay for adding a leather strap for MR? or are you going to do it as warranty service for your noble customer?

[@angeloromanazzo2585]

Does the MR on the stand have the new headband with the strap?

[@ABYSSHeadphones]

Production of all factory new Diana headphones has added the new sling to the headband assembly.

[@marcusloo767]

i see that new leather strap on the inside of diana mr will this be an option to buy after the fact for users like myself who have the mr pre leather strap?

[@ABYSSHeadphones]

We will begin offering this at some point int he future. The headphone will need to come our way for this.

[@xyzzyx6241]

Could we get the Headband Strap for MR to buy separate?

[@ABYSSHeadphones]

Adding this new sling to an existing Diana can be complicated given all the various models and headband iterations out there. A retrofit will require a trip back to our US factory.

[@xyzzyx6241]

@@ABYSSHeadphones Thank you is it not possible to add a magnetic solution you can easily attack the Headband like the Earpads. The Diana Series would be even more modular/ versatile

[@RocketLauncherwithInfiniteAmmo]

How many headphones are in the lineup now?

[@ABYSSHeadphones]

Four, closed back coming later this year. abyss-headphones.com/collections/abyss-headphones

[@HiFiInsider]

[@ABYSSHeadphones]

Naturally:)

[@astifcaulkinyeras]

Closed back Diana when?

[@ABYSSHeadphones]

It's next up.

[@thelastrhino2581]

We can hear the A/C noise.

So do we. It's 95 degrees F outside We record our videos in a 750 sq ft (70 sq meter) room with 14 ft (4.2 meter) high acoustic drop ceiling. The room is treated for audio and is overall very quiet and comfortable to work in but needs air flow to keep it cool in the Summer, and the mics will pick that up, it's their job. Will however look into seeing if our video editing guy can filter that out in post.
