Description
A less expensive alternative to the Deluxe Abyss Headphones Package, this is the latest Phi TC (total consciousness) version of these incredibly impressive Abyss headphones.

Designed by Audiophiles
Widely regarded as the apex of modern headphone technology, the Abyss AB-1266 Phi TC planar magnetic headphones provide the finest quality and best possible sound. A result of two intense years of graft, relentless dedication and perfectionism, the AB-1266 Phi TC headphones were designed by perceptive audiophiles as a compact solution to superior music listening experiences whilst on the road.
Pure Unadulterated Sound
With a deep awareness of the emotional connection between an audiophile and their music, the Abyss team developed the headphones without any electronic tricks or unnecessary additions in order to give unadulterated sound in its purest form. Using the highly revered Stax SR-009 as the model to surpass, the engineers concentrated on enhancing the resolution, focus, dynamics and frequency extension as well as offering general ease of use.
TC (Total Consciousness)
Featuring newly designed 66mm planar magnetic speaker drivers, this latest TC version of the AB-1266 delivers the highest resolution of any headphones. These impressive drivers are matched with solid aluminium machined earcups, low carbon steel front baffles and remarkably soft and comfortable lambskin pads. Unlike most other driver assemblies, these headphones do not use a rear magnet structure eliminating reflections for the driver diaphragm and providing a stiff, stable and resonance free mounting platform for these drivers.
The black metal frames, fully adjustable and shaped like an inverted 'U', are inflexible and sturdy which gives a comfortably and secure fitting.
Flawlessly Immersive Sound
Soundwise, it is the closest listener's can get to being in the same room as the band and this experience is present even on the road. Crystalline highs, detailed mid ends and a deep, full-bodied base are perfectly balanced assured to win over even the most hardened sceptics within the first listen.
Delivering absolute transparency and terrific sound straight from the box, the Abyss AB-1266 Phi TC headphones do not require any 'breaking in' that many high-end headphones do. They acheive flawless sound from the very first listen.
All main components are permanently laser engraved for traceability and collectability.
