Endorphin Single-Ended High-End Headphone Cable for the Sony MDR-Z1R

Description

The Stefan AudioArt Endorphin is a new innovative high-end headphone cable which take the E-Series audiophile headphone cable design to the next level with unrivaled performance and comfort.

The Endorphin is available with either a custom handmade/hand polished ebony wood splitter or integrated flex splitter. Termination options include a custom multi-treated Neutrik professional 1/4″ connector, a custom multi-treated Switchcraft 3.5-mm connector for connection to a headphone amplifier or treated silver soldered ends for connection to the back of a power amplifier.

In addition a handmade/hand polished ebony wood 1/4″ connector is available which will improve the sonic performance of the Sony MDR-Z1R as it will present the music in a more natural/organic fashion, display greater transparency and reveal subtle inner detail.

The most important information we have gained in over 10 years of headphone cable design comes from our customers. Hundreds of serious listeners have reported back to us indicating that the sum of all the improvements offered by our audiophile, high-end and ultra high-end headphone cables translates into a unique emotionally involved listening experience.

The heart of the Endorphin is a uniquely engineered conductive surface formula allowing the pure, open, life like transparent signature of the impeccably designed Sony MDR-Z1R to be experienced far beyond what the stock cable or any other aftermarket headphone cable will provide. We designed and tested dozens of our own conductive surface formulas which consisted of the purest copper available combined with proprietary conductive enhancing material so the Sony MDR-Z1R would perform at the highest level possible with optimal user comfort. This approach opposes all other headphone cable manufacturers who just select “off the shelf” materials which in turn do not offer comprehensive solutions to sonic and ergonomic improvement.

The soul of the new SAA Endorphin is achieved by engineering a headphone cable with 90% less non-conductive material which lowers the resistance to the audio signal and increases the richness, clarity and definition across the audio spectrum. In addition the soundstage presentation opens-up to expose the listener to music which becomes truly engaging and captivating. Ergonomically, the structure of new Endorphin is light and soft which eliminates the microphonic characteristics normally associated with headphone cables.

Four options are available each with optional Wood Splitter (see drop down menu above):

• – Custom multi-treated Neutrik 1/4″ for connection to headphone amplifier
• – Custom multi-treated Switchcraft 3.5-mm for connection to headphone amplifier
• – Ebony or Cocobolo Wood Shell 1/4″ for connection to headphone amplifier

No other headphone cable available is engineered for sonic performance and user comfort like the Stefan AudioArt Endorphin:

• Focal Utopia specific conductive surface material
• Soft, light weight custom braid-hovering structure
• Specialized non-conductive component preparation
• Hand finished wood splitter or flex splitter
• Custom  1/4″, 3.5-mm connectors or SSE
• Quiet zero microphonic structure
• Unmatched built quality and appearance

Note: the Endorphin headphone cable is designed using delicate internal parts and should be treated with the same care as the finest headphones.

The Endorphin High-End headphone cable is also  available in custom lengths.
