Review: AudioQuest NightOwl Carbon Headphones<img src="
" />
You should hear the AudioQuest NightOwl Carbon. At $700, it might cost more than you plan on spending, but you should hear it. When you do hear them, you might think they sound too dark or even dull, but you should keep listening. The NightOwl was a challenge to review – it asks for time, re-listening, and re-calibration of expectations about what it means for a headphone to sound “accurate.” It appears that the NightOwl was designed thoughtfully and purposefully, such that the sound coming through its drivers is exactly what AudioQuest wanted us to hear. Though the NightOwl’s tone is an acquired taste, we feel that it is a headphone that sounds like its’ designer’s choices rather than compromises; a rare bird indeed.
