The new Sendy Egret Planar-Magnetic Headphones have one of the most advanced membranes the company has ever developed.

SENDY

Sendy Audio has unveiled its latest audio creation today. The all-new Egret headphones have been designed from the ground up to deliver accuracy, refinement and comfort. These new headphones feature a newly developed, nano-scale diaphragm produced using an advanced manufacturing process. The drivers are then housed within Sendy’s signature handcrafted wooden ear cups.

At the heart of the Egret headphones are custom-designed planar magnetic drivers measuring an impressive 98 x 84mm. Sendy says these drivers are its most ambitious design yet. The nano-scale composite diaphragm measures less than 800 nanometers thick, resulting in a sound with lightning-fast response, pinpoint accuracy and lifelike dynamics.

Using Sendy’s Electron Beam Evaporation Deposition, an ultra-fine aluminum circuitry is deposited directly onto the surface of the driver diaphragm at an atomic level. This high-precision manufacturing process delivers enhanced resolution, reduced distortion levels and an open soundstage, making the Egret suitable for analytical listening, studio use or simply enjoying music at home.

Listen And Admire

The Egret’s wooden housings are handcrafted from solid wood, with each pair exhibiting a unique grain and tone so that no two pairs are alike. The open-back design of the headphones produces an ultra-spacious and transparent soundstage, while the ergonomically contoured headband and soft leather earpads have been specifically fashioned for hours of fatigue-free listening.

The Egret’s sound signature is pure Sendy thanks to an impressive frequency range extending from a low 8Hz to a Hi-Res 40kHz. This wide dynamic range translates into a balanced and organic sound with a tight bass, transparent mids and a controlled treble. The overall presentation is impeccably neutral, but the headphones can also benefit from careful pairing with a high-quality DAC capable of realizing the kind of sound and dynamic range these headphones are able to offer.

Shipping with the Egret is a detachable cable developed using a unique triple-composite structure to ensure signal purity. The cable design consists of 30 strands of Furukawa oxygen-free copper, 10 strands of silver-plated copper, plus 10 strands of enameled gold-plated copper. Sendy has added spring strain reliefs at the point where the cable enters the termination to ensure long-term durability. The Egret are supplied with a deluxe zippered leather carry case with a tan finish.

Sendy claims the combination of wires used in the Egret’s cable delivers improved conductivity and higher definition. The graphene-reinforced PVC jacket protecting the wires enhances the overall flexibility and durability of the cable. Finally, the termination is a Pentaconn 4.4mm balanced jack plug, but Sendy also supplies 3.5mm and 6.35mm single-ended adapters for broad compatibility with a wide range of devices, DACs and amplifiers.

The Egret may not appeal to everyone due to their highly analytical nature, but a pair of headphones that can ruthlessly reveal the shortcomings of an audio system or master tape is exactly what many audiophiles are searching for. There’s no hiding place for a poor-quality mix, sub-standard amplifier or lacklustre DAC with these headphones. If you have a top-flight system or source, then you can expect to hear more… a lot more.
