Dan Clark Audio Corina Electrostatic Headphones

With 88 mm drivers, self-tensioning headband, and suede ear pads

Dan Clark Audio's Corina is a bold new take on electrostatic headphones. Featuring DCA's patent-pending Acoustic Metamaterial Tuning System (AMTS), Corina sets a new standard in delivering electrostatic resolution with a natural tone. Corina also features DCA's self-tensioning headband design, as well as new ear pads with improved ergonomics, including a suede surface that reduces heat and moisture buildup.

Acoustic Metamaterial Tuning System (AMTS)

Headphones are subject to standing waves in the higher frequencies, which can make instruments like strings, cymbals, even vocals sound unrealistic and fatiguing.

AMTS is Dan Clark Audio’s patent-pending inline device located between the transducer and ear. AMTS integrates waveguides, diffusion control, quarter-wave, and Helmholtz resonators into one compact structure to eliminate standing waves, dramatically improving system performance.

Diffusion elements reduce standing wave formation while resonators act as both precision and broadband filters to smooth and shape the frequency response from the midrange through the highest frequencies.

By eliminating standing waves and smoothing system response, AMTS renders high frequencies with a refreshing accuracy and clarity with all genres of music.

Exciting New Sound

Corina’s new tuning offers a weightier and more percussive bottom end, with a wider and deeper soundstage, a stronger bottom end, and a smoother, richer midrange.

Corina delivers a fun yet lifelike tone, sumptuous vocals, and bass that really kicks. Unlike many electrostatics, Corina is even fun with electronica and rock.

The re-engineered 88 mm driver has more consistent diaphragm tension and uniformity for enhanced linearity and better channel matching. Frequency response is flat down to 6 Hz.
