The 4 Hz low end of the frequency range offers more than enough latitude for even the deepest sub-bass notes. At the 120 kHz high-end, you'll be able to enjoy vocal melodies, subtle audio harmonics and tonality, giving your music more life and realism.
Hear music at it best with High-Res Audio
Take your digital music collection to another level with High-Resolution Audio that gets you closer to the original studio master recording so you can enjoy your music just as the artist intended.
Keep the sound pure
Filter out unnecessary noise with the resonance-free housing. A special acoustic paper filter (developed using Canadian softwood fibers and formed using the Japanese paper technique of Washi) controls the air resistance and eliminates any reverberations produced by driver movement, so that only clean, crisp frequencies get through.
Smooth sound at all frequencies
Fibonacci-patterned grills reproduce the intended sound properties smoothly at all frequencies.
Listen in cushioned comfort
The ergonomically crafted headphones are designed to comfortably encase your head in sound; preventing any from leaking and effectively delivering powerful lows. The genuine sheepskin ear pads cushion your ears in luxurious softness.
Enjoy lightweight luxury
The titanium and leather headband is flexible and light, yet durable, for a more natural over ear fit. Beta titanium has high elasticity which will return to its original shape even when bent. Genuine leather adds sturdiness and comfort.
Ensure superior sound quality with a separated ground cable
The newly developed 4.4 balanced connection cable separates left and right sound signals, while minimizing signal transmission loss and resulting sound deterioration. The result is smoother high frequencies and superior sound quality.
Minimize resistance and signal loss with silver-coated OFC cables
The MDR-Z1R uses silver-coated oxygen-free copper cables, designed to minimize resistance and signal-transmission loss. The result is less sound degradation, finer detail and smoother treble sounds.
Engineered and crafted in Japan
Sony products made in Japan are synonymous with absolute quality and performance, and the MDR-Z1R headphones are no exception. They are lovingly crafted with only the finest components and manufacturing techniques; resulting in exceptional sound quality.
Enfolding design structure
The enfolding design is tailored to wrap around the ear, sealing music in and keeping distractions out. Acoustics are reflected back towards your ears for the subtlest of sounds.
Hard case for storage
The headphones and accompanying cables come presented in a stylish storage case, with separated compartments and a luxury satin lining.
