Tesla Technology

The supreme discipline in beyerdynamic's premium class is known by the name "tesla". Developed in-house, tesla technology represents a milestone in beyerdynamic's innovative history.

Named after the pioneer of alternating current Nikola Tesla, the term tesla is used by experts to refer to the unit of magnetic induction or magnetic flux density in the metre-kilogram-second system (SI) of physical units. The magnetic flux density is important for headphones – it indicates the intensity of the magnetic field (magnetic field strength) in the air gap of the magnetic circuit. Because a magnetic flux density of more than one tesla is achieved in beyerdynamic acoustic transducers, the term tesla technology is used.

The centrepiece of our products: the sound transducer

The centrepiece of our products and therefore the part primarily responsible for their audio quality is the sound transducer, also known as the driver. So, today we’re getting a little more technical as we delve deeper into the world of our sound transducers and show you how our technologies have defined the audio quality of beyerdynamic products for decades.

Advantages of Tesla Technology

Example based on the T1. Other Tesla models may vary.

Design

The tesla acoustic transducer is uncomplicated in design. Only a small number of components have to be assembled, thus resulting in minimum tolerances. The construction consistently follows the laws of physics.

What impedance should I choose for my headphones?

Not only can the efficient tesla acoustic transducers be used for exceptionally precise and richly detailed sound, their high efficiency also benefits low-output mobile players. If you want to connect your headphones to the amplifier at home or to mobile devices on the road, use the universal 32-ohm version. The 250-ohm version is recommended for listening to your system at home.
