These headphones deliver spacious yet precise high frequencies and faithful and swift bass impulses at remarkably low THD (Total Harmonic Distortion) levels, ensuring an incredibly revealing listening journey that sets new standards in high-end listening.
The adjustable headband employs a mesh material to release heat and avoid perspiration, and the design weighs in at under 400 grams. Tiltable earcups enable four positions to help achieve a flawless fit. The cables attach directly to the headband to protect the ears from undue strain.
Made in Austria.
Best in combination with the Austrian Audio Full Score one headphone amplifier.

What Friends Are Saying
The 818s are absolutely stunning! Not only they sound incredible on pretty much any source but they give me extreme flexibility to shape my sounds after the recording through PolarDesigner and Stereo Creator.
The Austrian Audio OC818’s have been a game changer in my studio setup — incredibly detailed, balanced, and perfect for capturing the full character of my drums.
I have never seen a mic in the studio that can be used so extensively and deliver such fantastic results in such a short time.
The precision, transparency, and remarkably low noise level of the OC818 are truly impressive.
