DEVELOPED FOR ORCHESTRAL MUSICANS, PIANISTS AND KEYBOARD PLAYERS
The DT 73 IE is specially designed for string, wind, and keyboard instruments. The physically linear bass and mid-range reproduction between 20 Hz and 1 kHz ensures a natural sound that accurately reflects the original signal. A subtle boost in the treble range from 5kHz upwards ensures precise overtones without making the sound piercing or overemphasized.
Reference sound thanks to innovative driver design
The heart of the DT 73 IE is the TESLA.11 driver system, crafted in Germany and superior to conventional balanced armature systems. It delivers outstanding detail resolution with minimal distortion (THD: 0.02%). Thanks to its high impulse fidelity, acoustic events are reproduced with precision. With up to 137 dB sound pressure, the DT 73 IE is among the most powerful and low-distortion in-ear monitors on the market.
Better fit = better sound
Many in-ear monitors fit poorly due to large driver systems, affecting sound quality and isolation. The DT 73 IE solves this with its space-saving TESLA.11 driver and an ergonomic design based on hundreds of MRI ear scans. It is more compact than comparable models, offering excellent sound, high isolation, and optimal comfort. For maximum flexibility, the package includes five silicone and three Comply™ memory foam ear tips.
