Portable Design in Purpleheart Wood

The E-MU Purpleheart features handcrafted solid wood enclosures and biocellulose drivers, like its full-size relative, with a more understated aesthetic and a warm, appealing, non-fatiguing sound. Easy to drive from your phone (no amplifier or adapter required), these make an excellent entry point to the world of wood headphones.

Lightweight Comfort, Easy-Listening Sound

These closed-back headphones feature matte satin, with no external printing to distract from the beauty of the unstained wood. Named for its deep eggplant color, purpleheart is one of the densest woods in the world, which makes it especially good at reducing acoustic resonance. Combined with the 40-millimeter biocellulose drivers, this results in detailed, balanced highs and deep, warm bass. The soft protein leather ear pads ensure hours of listening comfort. Finally, because these cans weigh less than half a pound, you might forget you’re wearing them at all.

Question
What does it mean that these are closed back?

They have a full and solid cup that blocks some outside noise and prevent sound from leaking out. The sound also bounces of the cups and creates its own sound signature.Read More

In short, it's a membrane made of natural fibers that is much thinner than paper. They use it for burn treatments in place of skin as well.Read More

I use them directly from my phone. I’m sure you *could* use an amp but you absolutely don’t need to.Read More
