Audeze made some big waves last year when its EL - 8 headphones lured high - end planar magnetic designs away from the hi - fi and closer to mobile devices.

They were pioneers in putting (a proprietary) planar magnetic designs with extremely thin - film driver materials and powerful custom magnets inside their headphones.

Where more traditional headphones use dynamic drivers (like those in loudspeakers), a planar magnetic design uses an extremely thin and light diaphragm to reproduce sound.
