Dan Clark Audio - Noire XO

The New Standard in Open-Back Headphones

Exquisite Acoustic Performance, Improved Comfort,
and a Breakthrough Value!

NOIRE XO™ updates our iconic AEON 2 open by integrating DCA’s state-of-the-art Acoustic Metamaterial Tuning System™ (AMTS™) with an improved driver, all carefully wrapped in a gorgeous ergonomically-enhanced design. NOIRE XO’s dramatic black-on-black aesthetic, improved ear pads, self-adjusting headband, and beautiful open cups sumptuously hint at the numerous exciting upgrades within, all designed to
maximize your listening pleasure.

With NOIRE XO, DCA sets a new standard in midrange headphone performance, comfort, and value!

Extensive R&D investments were made to optimize other aspects of NOIRE XO’s planar driver. New manufacturing processes combined with highly optimized V-Planar knurling deliver a remarkably smooth frequency response with low distortion throughout the listening range, achieving levels of detail heretofore found primarily in our top-of-the-line headphones.

Key Features:

1) Acoustic Metamaterial Tuning System (AMTS) for unrivaled high-frequency accuracy and resolution
2) NOIRE XO is one of the few open headphones that can follow the Harman target curve through the entire
frequency spectrum. Most open-back headphones are incapable of producing the bass output expected from
the Harman curve, making this technical accomplishment even more significant
3) New driver design for improved consistency and reliability vs prior generation AEON 2 headphones
4) Updated ear pads with new features to reduce foam movement within the pad, as well as an Alcantara suede
surface where the ear pad rests on the head for improved comfort
5) Incorporation of our critically acclaimed self-tensioning headband
6) Reduced distortion for improved clarity and a smoother overall sound
7) Folds for convenient transport in the included compact carry case
