The headphone hardware is identical across both editions: a sonically neutral, linear closed-back platform precisely tuned to serve as the blank canvas for the Binaural Perception Modeling algorithms developed by Scaeva Technologies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eBeryllium driver and APS — the hardware that makes modeling work\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eThe beryllium-coated diaphragm is lighter and stiffer than standard Mylar, keeping THD below 1% and maintaining fast transient response across the full 10 Hz to 20 kHz range. Final impedance after the onboard hi-fi analog correction circuit measures 37.6 Ω — sufficient to run from an audio interface headphone output or a laptop jack without a dedicated amp. The patented APS (Acoustically Ported Subsonics) system harnesses internal air pressure to extend accurate sub-bass reproduction below the typical floor of closed-back headphones: low frequencies behave as a hybrid between closed and semi-open, while mid and high frequencies remain fully isolated. The correction circuit linearises the upper midrange response before the signal reaches the plugin, ensuring a consistent neutral starting point regardless of which room model is loaded.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003ePlatinum: the complete catalog, lifetime updates included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eWhere the Essentials Edition covers a curated starter set, Platinum unlocks every environment in the VSX library: acclaimed mixing studios including Yellow Matter Studios (Genelec 1032C, Kii Three, Neumann KH120), a Hollywood mixing room (Yamaha NS-10 with sub, ATC SCM25, Oceanway HR3.5), Howie Weinberg's mastering suite and Steven Slate's private room; car systems including Mercedes Burmester, luxury SUV and electric car; club systems with Funktion-One rigs; consumer devices including iPhone 14 Pro, Apple AirPods and a Sony boombox; and studio and planar headphone models including Audeze LCD-4, LCD-2, Beyerdynamic DT 770 and DT 250, Audio-Technica ATH-M50 and Sennheiser HD 650. Every environment offers near-, mid- and far-field speaker switching, room reflection depth, global output EQ and head-size calibration. New studios released by Steven Slate Audio are added to Platinum accounts automatically at no extra cost. Authorization uses an iLok account — no physical dongle required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eClosed-back circumaural headphones with beryllium hybrid dynamic driver\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePatented APS (Acoustically Ported Subsonics) — extended sub-bass accuracy\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eFrequency response: 10 Hz – 20 kHz (+\/- 3 dB), THD below 1%\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eImpedance: 37.6 Ω (after analog tuning circuitry)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eOnboard hi-fi analog correction circuit for upper midrange linearization\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eVSX Platinum plugin: AU, VST2, VST3, AAX — macOS and Windows\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eComplete environment catalog: pro mixing and mastering studios, car systems, clubs, consumer devices, studio and planar headphone models\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eLifetime free upgrades to all new studios and environments added by Steven Slate Audio\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePer-environment controls: near\/mid\/far-field, room reflections, global output EQ, head-size calibration\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eLitz Slimline 2 m detachable cable, 3.5 mm connector with 6.35 mm 24K gold-plated adapter\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eChassis: aluminum alloy; headband: stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCushions: dual-zone collagen leather\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorization: iLok account (no physical key required)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eIncluded: headphones, Litz Slimline cable, 1\/4\" adapter, hard carry case\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eType: closed-back, circumaural\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eDriver: beryllium-coated hybrid dynamic\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eFrequency response: 10 Hz – 20 kHz (+\/- 3 dB)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eTHD: below 1%\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNative driver impedance: 32 Ω (+\/- 10%)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eFinal impedance (after analog tuning circuit): 37.6 Ω\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaximum power: 127 mW\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eBass technology: APS – Acoustically Ported Subsonics (patented)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCable: Litz Slimline, detachable, 2 m, 3.5 mm connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAdapter: 6.35 mm, 24K gold-plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eHeadband structure: stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eChassis components: aluminum alloy\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCushions: dual-zone collagen leather (ear pads and headband)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePlugin: VSX Platinum Modeling Software\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePlugin formats: AU, VST2, VST3, AAX\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eOS — Mac: macOS 10.11 or later (Apple Silicon supported); standalone: macOS 11.7.4+\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eOS — PC: Windows 8.1 or later, 64-bit\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorization: iLok account (no physical iLok key required)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSoftware content: complete VSX environment catalog + lifetime free upgrades to all new studios and spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eIncluded in box: VSX headphones, Litz Slimline cable, 6.35 mm adapter, hard carry case\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Steven Slate Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53437474570577,"sku":"58857","price":379.25,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8741\/0769\/files\/StevenSlateAudioVSXModelingHeadphones-PlatinumEdition1_94fbe1f8-bca5-4c0b-9eb4-be76450b4e7f.jpg?v=1776069568","url":"https:\/\/wrdtunes.com\/fr\/products\/steven-slate-audio-vsx-modeling-headphones-platinum-edition","provider":"Wired Tunes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
