AUDEZE™
EL-8 PLANAR MAGNETIC HEADPHONE
Thank you for purchasing the Audeze EL-8 headphone. Combining leading-edge planar magnetic technology and innovative acoustic design, the EL-8 is available in both open and closed-back models.
To get the most out of your purchase, please take the time to carefully read through this user guide and warranty.
Safety Guide
Volume level is subjective and everyone perceives it differently. Listening to music for long periods of time at excessive levels can cause irreparable damage to your ears. Reduce the volume levels of the amplifier and/or audio device before listening to your headphones. Gradually increase the volume until desired levels are reached. Enjoy your headphones with safe listening habits.
Always maintain a distance of at least 8 inches (20cm) between the headphones and a cardiac pacemaker, implanted defibrillator, or other medical devices as the EL-8 has permanent magnets.
Keep the product, accessories and packaging out of reach of children. This product is not intended for children under the age of 12 years old.

Pushing sound technology to the limits, the EL-8 is designed with the world's most advanced planar magnetic technology including Fazor™ elements, revolutionary Fluxor™ magnetic array and Uniforce™ diaphragm design.

Connecting Your Headphones
Look for the (L)eft and (R)ight indicators on the two cable ends and match them to the headphone's (L)eft and (R)ight inputs on the inside of the headband in order to connect them. The cable connectors fit the headphone's input in only one orientation. There's a 3.5mm connector at the other end to connect with portable devices and a 1/4" adaptor is included.
Amplification
The EL-8 works beautifully with smartphones, tablets and portable players. You can dramatically improve the sound using an external headphone amp or our own Audeze Deckard™ DAC/Headphone Amplifier. Enjoy total musical satisfaction on the road or at your desktop, the best of both worlds.
Care and Maintenance
Regular maintenance is not required, but an occasional wipe with a clean, dry, lint-free cloth is recommended. Do not use any type of polish on the wood veneer.
