ENIGMAcoustics Dharma D1000 Dual-Driver Headphones
Boundary-Pushing Hybrid Electrostatic Headphones
Praised by InnerFidelity, Headfonics, and Headphone Guru, the ENIGMAcoustics Dharma D1000 delivers all the magic of electrostatic headphones—that immediacy, transparency, and detail—with one key difference: It doesn’t require a traditional electrostatic amplifier. The company’s patented SBESL (Self-Biased Electrostatic) technology eliminates the need for an AC connection to provide a polarizing voltage, something that most electrostatics require. Add the Sopranino electrostatic super tweeter and 52-millimeter Washi paper-based dynamic driver, and you’ve got a frequency response that extends from 5 Hz to 40 kHz with an impactful mid-bass and a sweet, nuanced sound throughout. Headphone Guru says the Dharma D1000 “competes with the likes of the MrSpeakers Ether, Sennheiser HD 800, HiFiMAN HE6, and certainly the HE1000.” Headfonics adds, “The headphone world needs more models out there like this that push the boundaries of what is possible.”
