The D8000 is a sophisticated headphone equipped with flat magnetic transducers based on a unique technology developed by the Japanese company called "Air Film Damping System" or AFDS. In essence, AFDS is a braking mechanism in which the diaphragm is placed in the centre of a sandwich structure surrounded by perforated metal with extremely precise openings, and the friction of the thin layer of air between the diaphragm and the perforated metal is carefully controlled.
As a result, the D8000s exhibit a previously unheard-of sound quality that combines the high sensitivity in the higher frequency ranges of designs equipped with planar magnetic transducers with the volume and sense of openness and impact in the bass that characterises their electrodynamic-based counterparts. As befits a product from Final Audio, the D8000 uses high quality materials machined with the utmost precision, while being handmade in Japan. Thus, the headphones themselves are constructed from an aluminium-magnesium alloy, their design in terms of ergonomics having been specifically intended to facilitate long-lasting listening sessions.
