This launch confirms the brand's commitment to offering a complete chain, from the kit to the ear, combining refined design and modern features focused on musicians' needs.
Who Is It For and What Are Its Uses?
The
Zildjian ALCHEM-E headphones target drummers, producers, and mobile creators who want a single tool for electronic drums, home studio, and everyday listening. The "Play-Along" mode lets your playing come through while controlling the environment, while the closed-back design ensures isolation and precision for rehearsing, traveling, or mixing on the go.
Key Features and Experiences
"Perfect Tune" Personalization
The headphones finely analyze the auditory specifics of each ear to adapt the sound reproduction. The result: a clearer soundstage, sharp transients, and musicality that highlights the nuances and dynamics of your kit as well as your playlists.
2-level Active Noise Cancellation
Choose between
full cancellation to isolate yourself or the
"Play-Along" mode which attenuates about 50% of the drum sound to maintain contact with your instrument while playing along with a track. Ideal at home, in the studio, or backstage before a concert.
Connectivity and Clear Calls
Bluetooth 5.3 ensures a stable and responsive connection, while the microphones provide a natural voice for video calls or voice memos without compromise between sessions.
Long-lasting Comfort, Intuitive Control
The ear pads and headband padding are replaceable to extend the headphones' lifespan. The fit is secure, the swivel ear cups facilitate prolonged wear, and the control button allows volume and track management with a single gesture.
Long Battery Life
With
up to 45 hours of listening with ANC, travel confidently on a long flight or a week of rehearsals without recharging, and switch to wired mode using the included detachable minijack cable.
