Adept at mix engineering applications, podcasting, live streaming and even good old fashioned high fidelity, Planar II’s versatility makes it a true everyman’s headphone.

As the name suggests, Planar II harnesses the power of planar drivers over moving coil designs for phenomenal accuracy, clarity and detail. Incorporating a matrix of neodymium magnets, the Planar II’s drivers are made to push and pull from both sides of the diaphragm evenly across the entire surface area.

By applying this meticulous force in equally and in both directions, listeners are treated to a remarkably natural sound susceptible to less distortion when compared to traditional moving coil designs.

Airiness of vocals, punchiness of bass and shimmer of reverbs are all delights just waiting to be enjoyed for the proud Planar II owner.

Comfort First
Avantone Planar 2 designed with comfort in mind

Planar II has been designed with an assembly even lighter than its predecessor and twinned with specially chosen ear pads that stay comfortable even through longer mixing sessions.

Open Back Architecture
Planar 2's planar-magnetic array technology

Utilising open-back architecture, Planar II aptly avoid pressure build-up and acoustic resonance that often impact on closed-back designs for more accurate delivery.
