[New Product Review] Ultrasone Closed-Back Monitor Headphones Signature Master MKII Released!

The German headphone brand Ultrasone has just launched the Signature Master MKII monitor headphones!
Known for its popular Edition, Performance, and PRO Series, Ultrasone has a dedicated fan base in the headphone category.
In certain areas in Tokyo, you’ll even spot people sporting the Edition Series headphones worth several hundred thousand yen, highlighting the brand’s core following.
Ultrasone recently released the new Signature Master MKII, which is designed based on the previous Signature Master model but comes with upgraded specifications in acoustic technology, wearing comfort, and balanced connectivity.
Now, let’s delve into the features of the Signature Master MKII headphones.

01. S-Logic 3 Technology

First and foremost, Ultrasone’s hallmark is its proprietary S-Logic Technology. The Signature Master MKII headphones adopt the latest version, S-Logic 3. By placing the speakers at precise angles relative to the ears, this technology provides a natural sound spread, resonance, and localization that sound like listening to monitor speakers, with less listening fatigue.
It’s something you need to experience to fully appreciate, and you’ll be amazed by the precise sound localization.

02. Sound Quality

As for the sound quality of the Signature Master MKII, which is infused with Ultrasone’s technology, the highs are clear and present with a substantial extension. The detailed reproduction of each fine sound in the strings reveals its high resolution.
The low frequencies are balanced, not overwhelmingly thick, allowing other frequency ranges to shine through. This makes it easy to monitor bass lines and bass drums clearly.
The synthesizers also sound crisp and clean, allowing you to grasp the balance of the music and the nuances of each instrument and part.

03. Design and Comfort

Although the appearance hasn’t changed much, the comfort has been improved with a thicker headband and a mesh cushion with a groove around the top of the head. It has a smooth texture, eliminating the pressure.
The clamping force is slightly stronger, typical of Ultrasone headphones. It may be a matter of preference, but those who like a snug fit will find it perfect.
The ear pads, made of sheepskin leather, provide a soft and comfortable feel.

04. Accessories

The headphones come with a hard case and three types of cables.
All cables are straight types, including a 6.3mm stereo standard cable, a 3.5mm stereo mini cable, and a 4.4mm plug cable for balance connections. The 6.3mm stereo standard plug and 3.5mm stereo mini plug are Neutrik, a well-known and highly reliable connector brand.
The hard case can store both the headphones and the cables, making it ideal for transportation and storage, and features the ‘Signature’ logo on it.

How was that? The Signature Master MKII is now available at Sound House! It’s a popular model, so it is expected to sell out quickly, so if it’s in stock, be sure to consider purchasing it!
