CORINA Reference Electrostatic Headphone
Dan Clark Audio's CORINA Reference Electrostatic Headphone is now available for purchase. Shipments will begin in May, 2023. CORINA is a bold new take on electrostatic headphones. Featuring DCA's patent-pending Acoustic Metamaterial Tuning System (AMTS), CORINA sets a new standard in delivering electrostatic resolution with a natural tone. CORINA also features our self-tensioning headband design, as well as new ear pads with improved ergonomics, including a suede surface that reduces heat and moisture buildup.
CORINA
Building on our award-winning VOCE headphones, CORINA delivers numerous sonic, technical, and ergonomic enhancements to create a wonderfully detailed yet sumptuous and inviting musical experience. CORINA delivers all the resolution electrostatic headphone fans crave, with a bottom end and tone worthy of the finest planar headphones.
An Exciting New Sound
Corina’s new tuning offers a weightier and more percussive bottom end, with a wider and deeper soundstage, a stronger bottom end, and a smoother, richer midrange.
Corina delivers a fun yet lifelike tone, sumptuous vocals, and bass that really kicks. Unlike many electrostatics, Corina is even fun with electronica and rock.
The Metamaterial Revolution Continues
CORINA integrates our state-of-the-art Advanced Metamaterial Tuning System (AMTS), allowing us to re-imagine the voicing of CORINA to deliver the most natural midrange we’ve heard in an electrostatic to date, with a top end free of annoying treble spikes.
New Industrial Design
Dan Clark Audio has always taken pride in our industrial design innovations and CORINA is no exception. With a striking grey finish and elegantly sculpted grill, CORINA is nothing short of stunning.

Acoustic Metamaterial Tuning System (AMTS)
Headphones are subject to standing waves in the higher frequencies, which can make instruments like strings, cymbals, even vocals sound unrealistic and fatiguing.
AMTS is Dan Clark Audio’s patent-pending inline device located between the transducer and ear. AMTS integrates waveguides, diffusion control, quarter-wave, and Helmholtz resonators into one compact structure to eliminate standing waves, dramatically improving system performance.
Diffusion elements reduce standing wave formation while resonators act as both precision and broadband filters to smooth and shape the frequency response from the midrange through the highest frequencies.
By eliminating standing waves and smoothing system response, AMTS renders high frequencies with a refreshing accuracy and clarity with all genres of music.
