Dan Clark Audio Aeon Core

The Dan Clark Audio AEON CORE is a closed-back planar magnetic headphone that replaces the AEON 2 with a completely new driver built for higher efficiency. This is Dan Clark's first headphone tuned to a revised Harman over-ear target curve, developed through research with Dr. Sean Olive. The result is a refined, balanced sound that stays true to Dan Clark's house style while giving you more clarity and control across the frequency range. The new planar magnetic driver is faster and more detailed than the previous generation, and the tuning gives vocals real presence without harshness.

AEON CORE also looks different. Gone is the all-black design, replaced with a bold aluminum and wood aesthetic that still delivers the comfort Dan Clark is known for. It sits right in the middle of the AEON lineup and represents serious value for a closed-back planar magnetic headphone with this level of driver technology and tuning expertise.
