Beyerdynamic Amiron Guide Description
And the fact that your music will sound larger is a definite positive for these headphones – their sound quality is superb.
Blasting a rock classic, the bagpipes in AC/DC’s It’s A Long Way To The Top (If You Wanna Rock ‘N’ Roll) are a good test of how a pair of headphones can handle treble. The Amiron takes them in its stride, keeping a good grip on the high frequencies without any harshness.
On the softer side, the midrange vocals in Fountains of Wayne’s Action Hero come across clearly too, giving an insightful rendition of the way that Chris Collingwood drags and emphasises the ends of his words that the Audio Technica headphones just can’t quite match.
There’s also tightness to the Amiron timing.
The regular high-pitched pips that run in the background throughout the song are kept regular and rhythmic – which is vital when the focus of half the song is on someone hooked up to a heart monitor.
And the headphones do a nice job of keeping track of instruments, even during the busier clash of distorted synths, drums, and guitars in Mitski’s Puberty 2 album.
Your Best American Girl remains resolutely organised when coming out of the Amirons, building to the climax without losing track of Mitski’s voice and ensuring that stays intact amidst the chaos and feedback.
There’s no question that the Amiron can dig down into the lower frequencies either, even without the emphasis on bass that the closed-back headphones have.
The growling engine in Queen’s Another One Bites The Dust is solid and detailed when starting up in the middle of the song. While other headphones might sound more energetic, the Amirons don’t force any extra enthusiasm into the song.
The dynamism and punch in Queen’s low beats or AC/DC’s power chords come straight from the music, rather than being hyped up by the headphones.
The level of transparency and range that the Amiron provide means that, if you put high quality sound into it, you’ll get high quality sound out of it.
At this price point, Beyerdynamic’s Amiron headphones provide an impressive sound that takes the whole frequency range in its stride.
We like their clear midrange vocals, their tight timing, and the impressive way that they can handle challengingly messy songs.
On the whole, the ability of the Amiron will keep you happy no matter what they’re playing.
Filled with the latest technology from premier headphone manufacturer Beyerdynamic the Amiron Home is a mid-price audiophile headphone from one of the most loved companies in the game. With an RRP of around $500, they will be up against stiff competition from mainstream and audiophile brands, but with such a stellar reputation, will they be able to hold their own? Let's find out in the description.
When you pick the headphones up, they feel very well-made yet not fully premium. They have the traditional robust build quality that is derived from the company's respected studio monitors. Just enough of those features leave the Amiron feeling like a headphone capable of taking many years of punishment.
All of the headphones are handmade in Germany, and the finish quality is flawless. Material choices are excellent, striking the right balance of price to performance.
The headband and yoke section on which the open back earcups swivel feel very good. Micro-adjustment inside the generously padded headband ensured the ability to make micro-adjustments to the size.
The earpads are a lovely velour style, and they are also big. I like that they went for this option instead of leather. The earpads, as with many of Beyer’s finishing parts, will be available aftermarket. If history shows anything, there will be support for this headphone many years after it gets retired.
Detachable cables complete the headphone, and entry is dual-sided. It comes with a 3.5mm adapter and a 1/4 inch jack adapter, so if you want to use these as balanced headphones or with an XLR output, you must buy a compatible aftermarket cable.
