Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Kopfhörer mit zwei, den Ohren eines Nutzers zugeordneten rechten und linken Gehäusen, die Schallwände (10) aufweisen, in denen dynamische Schallwandler (12, 13) angeordnet sind, die jeweils einen Hochtöner (13) und einen koaxial zu diesem angeordneten Mitten-/Tieftöner (12) umfassen. Um die Ortbarkeit von durch diesen Kopfhörer wiedergegebenen Schallereignissen gezielt steuern zu können, ist erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen, daß die Schallwand (10) in jedem Gehäuse einen ersten Abschnitt (14) hoher Dämpfung aufweist, der bezogen auf das Zentrum der Schallwandler (12, 13) einen Bereich von mehr als 170 Grad und weniger als 340 Grad des Mitten-/Tieftöners (12) unter Aussparung des Hochtöners (13) abdeckt und einen im wesentlichen V-förmigen Bereich (15) mit einem Öffnungswinkel kleiner 170 Grad und größer 20 Grad freiläßt, und einen zweiten Abschnitt (17) hoher Dämpfung im Bereich der Spitze des V-förmigen Bereichs (15), der zwischen 5% und 50% des Hochtöners (13) freiläßt.
