RAAL 1995 MAGNA

The RAAL 1995 MAGNA is a reference-level open-back headphone system built around RAAL’s advanced dual true-ribbon driver architecture. Designed for listeners who value natural timbre, speed, and spatial realism, MAGNA delivers an effortlessly open and immersive presentation with exceptional clarity, refined dynamics, and remarkable musical presence.

Experience Music with Purity, Scale, and Precision

Some headphones impress with detail. Others move you with realism. The RAAL 1995 MAGNA is created to do both—combining the unmistakable speed and openness of true-ribbon technology with a deeply natural sense of tone, scale, and musical balance.

Built around RAAL’s next-generation dual true-ribbon driver design, MAGNA is not a simplified alternative or diluted expression of the brand’s flagship vision. It is a distinct high-end headphone system created for listeners who want authenticity of timbre, spatial clarity, and a presentation that feels immediate, refined, and emotionally convincing.

A Distinctive Expression of True-Ribbon Performance

At the heart of the MAGNA is RAAL’s R² dual-driver true-ribbon architecture, using corrugated pure aluminum ribbons with specialized damping technology. This design gives MAGNA the speed, transparency, and transient precision that ribbon headphones are known for, while preserving body, tonal coherence, and natural musical flow.

The result is a sound that feels open, fast, and finely textured—never forced, never artificial. Notes start and stop with striking precision, instruments occupy space with believable shape and proportion, and recordings unfold with a level of effortlessness that invites long, immersive listening sessions.

Open, Spacious, and Wonderfully Natural

MAGNA’s open-back circumaural design with a vented front chamber contributes to its spacious and unconfined character. Instead of sounding boxed in or overly intimate, it presents music with air, separation, and dimensionality that feel closer to a speaker-like listening experience.

This is a headphone that reveals nuance without sounding clinical. It offers speed without thinness, detail without glare, and openness without losing musical weight.

Luxury Craftsmanship & Design

Every detail of the MAGNA reflects uncompromising craftsmanship and refined design:

• Precision-engineered aluminum and glass fibre chassis

• Hand-finished American walnut wood accents

• Etched stainless steel grille

• Premium memory foam ear pads with lamb suede and perforated leather

Designed for extended listening sessions, the large circumaural ear openings and carefully balanced structure ensure exceptional comfort without fatigue.

Ribbon Current-Drive Interface (RCD System)

Unlike conventional headphones, the RAAL 1995 MAGNA cannot be driven directly by standard headphone outputs. Its ultra-low impedance ribbon drivers require a specialized current-drive system to perform correctly.

RAAL has developed a dedicated solution in the form of the Ribbon Current-Drive Interface (RCD)—a precision-engineered interface that also functions as a headphone stand. When paired with the appropriate cable system, it enables safe and effective connection to compatible headphone amplifiers.

This system ensures optimal control, stability, and performance of the ribbon drivers while preserving the speed, transparency, and openness that define the RAAL listening experience.

The MAGNA is also compatible with existing RAAL interfaces, including:

• TI-1a / TI-1b / TI-1c interfaces

• HSA series amplifiers

• VM series direct-drive amplifier systems
