Final Launches DX6000 Headphones with Magnesium Driver Innovation

Final DX6000 Headphones: A Flagship Leap in Dynamic Audio Innovation

Final DX6000 Headphones have officially launched as the latest flagship model from Japan’s renowned audio manufacturer, Final. Positioned between the Sonorous and D8000 series, this new release marks the debut of the DX Series—an ambitious step forward in headphone engineering. At its core is an all-new, large-diameter dynamic driver featuring a lightweight magnesium dome diaphragm, selected for its superior stiffness-to-weight ratio and exceptional acoustic neutrality. Through a proprietary oxidation and edge-folding process, Final has refined this challenging material to deliver ultra-low distortion, rapid transients, and accurate dynamics. The open-back design, combined with a unique silicone foam surround, ensures precise piston motion, contributing to a remarkably deep and natural soundstage that mimics the spatial realism of high-end loudspeakers.

Every element of the Final DX6000 Headphones is meticulously engineered to enhance sonic purity. Instead of traditional soldered connections, Final’s innovative “air-wired” aluminium voice coil—enhanced with trace elements for optimal conductivity—minimizes resonance and signal degradation. This approach eliminates the need for crossovers, supporting smooth, speaker-like linearity without introducing artificial harshness in the upper frequencies. A finely tuned internal acoustic network further balances treble response while delivering rich, uncolored bass. Despite its premium components, the DX6000 weighs just 363g (excluding cable), making it ideal for long listening sessions. Each unit is handcrafted and matched on a specialized production line in Japan, affirming Final’s commitment to heirloom-quality audio craftsmanship.

With a 3-meter OFC balanced XLR cable included and a carefully considered design focused on long-term value, the DX6000 is more than just a headphone—it’s a reference-grade audio instrument. Final’s design philosophy is guided by longevity and authenticity, echoing the values of high-end watchmaking but with a vision to create lifetime listening companions. Priced at £1,899 / €1,999 / US$1,999, the Final DX6000 is available now through select authorized dealers worldwide.
