Cable Choice

The iconic AEON 2 Noire gets DCA's most significant technology upgrade yet, the Noire X integrates the Acoustic Metamaterial Tuning System and an improved driver into the beloved closed-back AEON platform, delivering a substantial performance leap over its predecessor.

Type and Technology

Over-ear, closed-back, planar magnetic. Updated driver with DCA's Acoustic Metamaterial Tuning System (AMTS), bringing flagship-level reflection control to the AEON platform. Available with DUMMER or VIVO cable options. Made in the USA.

Sound Character

More open and resolving than the AEON 2 Noire it replaces, with the AMTS meaningfully reducing the reflection and coloration common in sealed designs. The Noire X delivers a tighter, more accurate presentation with better soundstage width, improved midrange clarity, and a more controlled bass compared to the previous generation.

Build and Comfort

DCA's signature carbon fiber and aluminum construction with the NiTinol memory metal headband. The AEON form factor folds flat for travel and is one of the more portable serious headphones in DCA's lineup. Premium earpads and good passive isolation.

Best For

AEON 2 Noire owners ready to step up to AMTS technology, and listeners who want a travel-friendly closed-back planar with genuine flagship-derived engineering.
