Blue Microphones - Ella - Planar Magnetic Headphones with Built-In Audiophile Amp

EXPERIENCE DETAILED, MAXIMUM-IMPACT SOUND
For 20 years, the world's greatest artists have used Blue microphones in the studio. That's why Blue is passionate about delivering music truthfully and powerfully.

Ella is the only headphone that combines the transparent detail of planar magnetic drivers with the impact of dynamic technology to deliver a sublimely detailed listening experience with immense emotional impact. Ella maximizes the sound of your music with advanced planar magnetic drivers, a built-in audiophile amplifier and large, high-capacity cabinets. And the revolutionary ergonomic fit ensures optimal sound isolation and comfort for the most immersive listening experiences. Whether you're listening to the Zeppelin reissue box sets, Pink Floyd on 180-gram vinyl, Radiohead collector's edition remasters or Neil Young on high-resolution digital, Ella's radical headphone design literally lets you hear new detail in your favorite music.

THE PLANAR MAGNETIC HEADPHONE WITH A TWIST
SUPERIOR SOUND, PLANAR AND SIMPLE
Pour yourself a drink, and prepare to rediscover your favorite records, because you've never heard a headphone like this before. Here's the twist, Ella combines Blue's planar magnetic technology with an onboard audiophile amp and large, high-capacity cabinets to deliver the perfect artisanal blend of accuracy and impact. The 50mm x 50mm drivers utilize a double sided, opposed push-pull magnet structure that's self-tensioned for fast response and extreme accuracy. The onboard amp provides ultra-clean dynamics, while the massive cabinets ensure a rich and extended soundstage. Ella brings out so many new details-it's like hearing your favorite music for the first time again.

BUILT-IN AUDIOPHILE AMP
LET THE POWER GO TO YOUR HEAD
For decades, getting a high-fidelity headphone experience meant tethering passive audiophile headphones to a bulky outboard amp. Not anymore. Ella is the first headphone to offer planar magnetic sound quality with the convenience of a built-in 250mW audiophile amp. The amp pairs beautifully with Blue's custom matched drivers to deliver crystal-clear audio on all your devices.

THREE ALL-ANALOG AMP MODES
ANY WAY YOU WANT IT
Ella lets you personalize your listening experience with three amp modes. No DSP tricks here-this is all analog, baby. Switch between modes to accent the sonic character of your music and get the full Blue headphones treatment.

• On: Incredibly clean sound with increased power and headroom that reveals every detail of your music
• On+: Adds a slight bump for restoring low-end character to vinyl-era music-as in, wait until you really hear Paul's bass parts on Sgt. Pepper
• Off: Deactivates the built-in amplifier, allowing you to connect to high-performance AV gear or just listen without a battery charge

THE BETTER THE FIT, THE BETTER THE SOUND
With Ella, Blue threw away the rulebook and completely reimagined what headphones should look and sound like. Everything from the multi-jointed design to the earcups delivers revolutionary form and functionality. You'll feel-and hear-the difference instantly.

REINVENTED HEADBAND CONSTRUCTION
Ordinary headphones have the same old "spring loaded" headband that you've seen a zillion times. Lucky for you Ella is no ordinary headphone. Ella's unique multi-jointed headband was inspired by the finely tuned suspension of Formula One racecars. It's elegant, comfortable, and adapts to a variety of head shapes and sizes. Simply put, it's a level of fit and comfort that isn't even possible with other headphones. This innovative design creates a perfect seal around your ear, resulting in powerful bass response, improved isolation and reduced sound bleed.

INTELLIGENT POWER MANAGEMENT
TAKE THE LONGEST POWER TRIP
With a smart design that saves big on battery life, Ella is always ready for action. When you take Ella off your head, she automatically powers down to save juice. The battery charges completely in 3-4 hours, and delivers approximately 12 hours of life-changing playtime. But don't worry-even if the battery runs down, Ella will still keep the music going. You could say these headphones have staying power.
