intime / Sho DD High-resolution in-ear headphones

The Sho DD combines third-generation VST and HDSS(R) technology for outstanding sound quality balance. The hard duralumin housing reduces weight and improves fit. Re-cable compatibility and the use of hybrid cables maximise the sound quality potential.

■ [Development background] Birth of ‘Sho DD’
‘Sho DD’ is the successor to the flagship model “Sho”, which brings together all the technology of the flagship model ‘Sho’. The ‘Sho DD’ is the successor to the flagship model “Sho”, and is a model that allows users to casually enjoy the superior technologies of the expensive ‘Sho’, such as the hard duralumin housing and the 3rd generation VST.

■ [3rd generation VST] Evolved acoustic technology
The ‘Sho DD’ uses 3rd generation VST. It uses a ceramic material with low history characteristics to improve sensitivity in the ultra-high frequency range and reproduce a natural sound field. In addition, the coaxial structure allows you to enjoy expansive sound and clear highs.

■ [HDSS(R) technology] Natural and less tiring sound
TBI Audio Systems' third generation HDSS(R) technology is used to suppress reflections inside the cabinet. The woofer diaphragm moves faithfully to the signal source, resulting in a natural and less tiring sound. Well-balanced reproduction without compromising the sound quality.

■ [Hard duralumin] Lightweight and excellent strength
The housing made of hard duralumin is lightweight yet strong and has excellent acoustic properties. The hybrid design with resin material improves both sound quality and weight reduction, and also improves fit and portability.

■ [Re-cableableable] Pentaconn Ear connector adopted
The ‘Sho DD’ adopts the Pentaconn Ear connector from Nippon Dics. Low contact resistance and low signal loss provide better sound quality. The ability to enjoy changes in sound quality by changing cables is also a major attraction.

■ [Hybrid cable] Maximises sound quality
Hybrid cable using OFC and silver-coated OFC ensures durability and easy handling. Minimises contact resistance and delivers excellent resolution, localisation and separation. The cable draws out the full potential of the sound quality.
