The Reference Standard for Intimacy, Purity, and Scale

A distinct, reference-level headphone system designed specifically for listeners who crave absolute authenticity of timbre, lifelike speed, and a presentation that feels immediate, focused, and emotionally compelling. Handmade in Serbia by RAAL 1995, the MAGNA dual true-ribbon headphone specializes in reproducing the delicate scale and proportions of small-to-mid-size acoustic ensembles—such as string quartets, piano trios, singer-songwriters, and classic jazz—with an effortless directness that conventional driver technologies simply cannot replicate.

*For those purchasing the “Headphone Only” - This option is for customers who already have a ribbon amplification setup. If this is your first pair of RAAL 1995 True Ribbon headphones, please select either the standard, deluxe, or premium package above.

A Standard of Excellence

The MAGNA stands as the definitive reference-class standard for high-performance personal audio, serving as the benchmark around which next-generation True-Ribbon™ transduction is defined. Built around a highly advanced R² dual-driver true-ribbon motor array, this system employs corrugated pure aluminum foils that serve simultaneously as the electrical conductor and the sound-producing diaphragm. By eliminating the voice coil, adhesive, and heavy backing substrate found in traditional drivers, the moving mass is reduced to a negligible index. This physical purity prevents mechanical energy storage and kinetic hysteresis, allowing the ribbons to respond to electrical impulses with instantaneous speed and stop immediately when the signal ceases—yielding pristine transient accuracy and absolute transparency.

Acoustically, the design offers an incredibly spacious, speaker-like listening experience with a completely unobstructed sound wave path. Utilizing a custom-engineered vented front chamber and open-back circumaural architecture, the system excels at delivering unmatched realism, directness, and authenticity of timbre. The sonic presentation is highly valued for its fast, focused midrange, presenting vocals and instruments with lifelike scale and emotional intimacy. Mid-size ensembles, classical trios, acoustic performances, and jazz are reproduced in three-dimensional space with stunning holographic clarity, while the low-end delivers a tight, articulate, and completely distortion-free upper-bass response.
