DUNU has announced the release of the Vulkan 2, a pair of in-ear monitors (IEMs) designed to elevate hybrid driver performance to new heights. Successor to the original Vulkan model from 2022, the Vulkan 2 introduces a comprehensive redesign, encompassing advancements in driver configuration, crossover design, and aesthetic appeal. The upgrade features a transition from a six-driver setup to an eight-driver arrangement, promising a more immersive and detailed sound experience for audiophiles.
The Vulkan 2 employs a sophisticated hybrid driver system, consisting of two dynamic drivers (10mm and 8mm) and six balanced armature drivers. Each dynamic driver is housed in its own isolated acoustic chamber, allowing the 10mm driver to deliver robust sub-bass while the 8mm driver focuses on punchy mid-bass frequencies. This isolation enhances bass precision and reduces interference. The armature drivers include two Knowles units for lush midrange frequencies and four custom units for extended, high-resolution treble reproduction, resulting in a harmonized sonic profile across the spectrum.
