YH-5000SE Headphones (Released December 2022) : Bronze Award
These flagship headphones were created by taking advantage of the latest technology to redesign our Orthodynamic™ driver that had captivated audiophiles in the 1970s. The design is both functional and beautiful with the lightest weight and most comfortable fit possible, inviting the listeners to enjoy a deep and immersive listening experience as long as they want. They are produced in the same Japanese factory that handles our flagship grand piano models.
