Sendy Audio Peacock

Sendy Audio Peacock

The Peacock is the latest headphone from Sendy Audio. After causing a sensation with the Aiva, the manufacturer now presents an even more comprehensive model that will convince even the most demanding listeners.

Sendy Audio optimized the diaphragm in two years of development work to achieve an ideal compromise between stability and weight. It succeeded in making them so thin and light that frequencies up to 40 kHz with high resilience and impulsivity are no problem for the Peacock.

Quad-Former technology is used for the Peacock. The magnetostatic driver consists of dual magnets plus dual coil sides on the diaphragm plus dual coils on each side of the diaphragm. These four coils on each side of the diaphragm ensure that the diaphragm generates the same vibration everywhere at the same frequency. The double-sided magnet provides a uniform magnetic force in the field. The result is excellent magnetic energy conversion, good consistency and low distortion, providing excellent music reproducibility. This gives the feeling of listening to music as in a live concert.

The housing itself is precision CNC-machined and provides a vibration-free and optimal working environment for the diaphragm and coils. The gold-plated grill (24K) is a clever design element and gave the Peacock its name because it resembles a flared peacock's tail. It is surrounded by a neatly sanded, lacquered and polished wooden shell, which gives each Peacock a special feel and look. The ear pads guarantee very good comfort and are easily interchangeable.

Included with the headphones is an approximately 2m-long, very high-quality, twisted-pair cable. The headphone jack is designed with a 4.4mm Pentaconn plug, which can be transferred naan a 4-pin XLR or a 6.35mm jack using the included adapters. This makes it possible to connect to all high-quality headphone amplifiers.

HiFi Pig Magazine - 5/5 Stars Review

"The highlights are the detail and depth of information these headphones bring to the party. This detail is apparent whether listening to the filthy grunge bass of Nirvana or to Neil Young thrashing the hell out of his steel string guitar on Cinnamon Girl." Full Review

Hi-Fi Choice Recommended - 4.5/5 Stars Review

"The high price of the Peacock obviously means that this is far from a casual purchase, and many people may prefer to wait until they can try the headphones for themselves in a showroom. But if your budget can stretch to £1,300 and you have a comfortable listening room, this luxurious offering is a satisfying and worthwhile investment."
