Steven Slate Audio - VSX

Steven Slate Audio VSX system begins with a trailblazing reference-quality closed-back beryllium driver headphone that includes the patent-pending Acoustic Ported Subsonics™ (APS) technology which delivers unrivalled lows by harnessing the air pressure to supercharge low-frequencies. VSX features ultra-HD beryllium drivers that reproduce your audio with incredible precision. You'll hear details of your mixes you wouldn't hear on other headphones or monitors.

The Steven Slate Audio VSX headphones are equipped with lightweight beryllium hybrid dynamic drivers to deliver a 20 Hz to 20 kHz frequency range with exceedingly high detail, and an ultra-flat response. Furthermore, the headphones use a ported APS construction to ensure an accurate, fast, and present low-end. Coupled with a carefully designed detachable cable, the headphones offer a blank canvas of sorts, through which you can superimpose the sound of famed rooms.

The Steven Slate VSX headphones utilise beryllium hybrid drivers and custom analogue tuning to deliver a flat, linear, and detailed response. You will also experience exceedingly low frequencies thanks to VSX's Acoustically Ported Subsonics (APS) system, which uses patented technology to harness air pressure and reproduce low-end frequencies with detail. This state-of-the-art design creates the most linear sound with precise transient detail and jaw-dropping sub lows.

Steven Slate Audio VSX headphones offer you an HD-Linear feature that gives you a flat headphone frequency response, allowing you to hear your mix in its most authentic form. Since the VSX headphones are designed to be the ultimate blank canvas for the accompanying software, the team at Steven Slate designed the brutally honest HD linear emulation as both a mixing option and the default setting whenever you choose to utilise it. The VSX HD-Linear software feature ensures you have an accurate reference, every time.

Steven Slate Audio VSX headphones come bundled with the VSX 2.0 plugin that uses Steven Slate Audio’s Binaural Perception Modeling (BPM) algorithms to precisely reproduce the 3D sound of famous mixing studios, mastering rooms, car stereos, nightclubs, audiophile listening rooms and various models of industry-standard headphones. With this enabled, you will feel as if you’re really in the room mixing on actual speakers. With the Level Match Bypass feature, you can compare your mix at the same level along with the VSX HD-Linear emulation, which flattens the bypassed signal.

The VSX 2.0 software from Steven Slate Audio enables you to listen, mix and master your music in authentic recreations of world-class mixing studios, mastering rooms, car stereos, nightclub sound systems and headphones from anywhere in the world. It accomplishes this by utilising a hybrid system combining a state-of-the-art beryllium driver headphone (powered by Scaeva Technologies), and a revolutionary binaural perception modelling plugin that realistically recreates the way that humans hear speakers.

The VSX 2.0 software is intuitive to use and is included with the VSX headphones. It is compatible with Mac and Windows platforms and will operate in VST, AAX Native, and AU formats. To use the software, place the VSX 2.0 plug-in at the end of your audio chain, and you'll be able to switch between different environments at the click of a button. In many emulated environments, you can switch among near, mid and far-field speakers. You can also adjust the amount of room reflections present in the resultant sound. Furthermore, you can EQ most of the environments to tailor the sound to your liking, if you so choose.
