Cardas EM5813 Model 1 Ear Speakers
The Cardas EM5813 Model 1 Ear Speakers are the result of four years of
intensive research and development. In his quest to deliver the ultimate
in 'earbud' performance, George Cardas has designed every aspect of
this exceptional product from the ground up. The result is true high-end
sound and a level of sonic achievement that sets a new benchmark for
in-ear headphones.
Cardas Ear Speakers work
beautifully with a portable headphone amplifier, or plugged straight
into a smartphone or media player. All parts that make up the custom
designed drivers are machined from proprietary solid bar stock metals in
California. All drivers are meticulously hand-matched on each pair of
Ear Speakers.
Ear Mirror Technology
George Cardas describes his Ear Speakers as using what he terms 'Ear
Mirror' technology to provide a more effective and sonically pleasing
connection between the earphone and the wearer's inner ear. For best
sound quality, the EM5813 mirrors the human cochlea, which is a
spiral-shaped cavity in the bony labyrinth of the inner ear.
The curve of the headphone's ear tube uses a Golden Ratio curve that
mimics the curve of the cochlea. The Model 1's single driver is
approximately the same size of the tympanic membrane, also known as the
eardrum – which is a thin, cone-shaped membrane between the external ear
from the middle ear whose function is to receive sound vibrations.
Golden Ratio Design
The human hearing system, musical chords, and the new Cardas Ear
Speakers are all reflections of the Golden Ratio. This aesthetically
pleasing proportion of 1.6180339887:1 is as old as nature itself, and it
can be seen in the elegant structure of the chambered nautilus shell,
which is appropriately the logo of Cardas Audio. 'Discovered' by the
Greeks, but adopted by the Egyptians in the Great Pyramid centuries
before, the Golden Ratio has been used to create our most beautiful and
naturally pleasing works of art and architecture.
The infinite indivisibility of the Fibonacci Sequence or Golden Section,
derived from the Golden Ratio, is also a key to controlling resonance.
This mathematical proportion is used in the design of Cardas cable
conductors and other technology that play a critical part in the EM5813
Ear Speakers.
Cardas from Ear Tip to Plug
The EM5813 is every bit a Cardas Audio product from ear tip to plug.
George's developments in new and improved materials that affect the
magnetic field of this newly designed driver results in amazing bass
performance and transfixing musicality. Even the ultra thin tips were
redesigned to have a precise, comfortable fit. The Earspeaker incorporates
a Cardas Clear Light headphone cable tipped with custom gold plated,
right-angle plug that fits most protective cases.
Clear Light Headphone Cable
The Earspeaker's Clear Light headphone cable uses an elegant application
of the technology that George Cardas has designed for his
top-of-the-line Clear-series cables.
Cardas Clear cables use a newly applied technology to solve the smeared,
unfocused sound that's inherent in standard cable designs. Cardas Clear
uses Matched Propagation Conductors to deliver what George calls "an
unprecedented window of clarity."
