Headphone modifications usually take a back seat reputation in the purist community- this is understandable given they are mostly quick fixes or slight tweaks made to improve a limited range of issues. Most of the time they are quite simple, carried out by suppliers who do not have access to resources needed to develop a truly competitive concept.

At Symphones we offer a different approach to hi-end headphone manufacturing. Our goal is to provide convincing reference products at affordable prices. This task is not easy and in order to succeed we have pioneered a new method of manufacturing. Our process involves using already-existing designs and models as a starting point- then, with proven engineering know-how, we develop from the ground up, new technologies, materials, and processes to create our vision of a truly reference design.

Following three years of painstaking research, Symphones proudly presents a new benchmark in headphone modification, the Magnum enhancement.

Utilizing the Grado SR325/ Alessandro MS2 platform, the Magnum enhancement applies Symphones’ research to enhance three vital elements of headphone architecture – sound chamber, driver and baffle. The solution is elegant in its simplicity, using superior components crafted from materials each perfectly suited to its task.

The result is a retrofit and upgrade package employing new and promising technologies designed to provide maximum performance and seamless integration with your existing headphones.
