HEDD HEDDphone TWO GT Unplugged Open-Back Headphones

The HEDDphone TWO GT Unplugged open-back headphones deliver the same refined listening experience as the standard TWO GT in a streamlined configuration for listeners who already own preferred cables or simply want a more focused package. Based on HEDD’s flagship audiophile headphone platform, the TWO GT Unplugged features the same warmer tuning, updated Air Motion Transformer driver and multi-layer Kapton polyimide diaphragm engineered for lower distortion. Its open-back, over-ear design supports a spacious presentation, while Variable Velocity Transformation technology extends frequency reproduction from 10Hz–40kHz. With HEDD’s innovative HEDDband system, premium materials and the same high-resolution sound signature as the standard model, the TWO GT Unplugged focuses on what matters most: an immersive and engaging listening experience.

Air Motion Transformer Detail and Speed

At the center of the HEDDphone TWO GT Unplugged is HEDD’s full-range Air Motion Transformer driver, a design created to deliver fast transient response and an open, highly detailed sound. The GT version uses an updated multi-layer Kapton polyimide diaphragm, which is designed for even lower distortion than the standard HEDDphone TWO driver. HEDD’s Variable Velocity Transformation technology reshapes the driver geometry by varying the folds in width and depth, helping the headphone reproduce frequencies across a wide 10Hz–40kHz range. The result is precise detail retrieval, clear instrument separation and the quick response expected from a high-end AMT headphone.

Tuned for Musical Enjoyment and Long Listening Sessions

While the original HEDDphone TWO is positioned for professional production, mixing and mastering, the HEDDphone TWO GT Unplugged is tuned with music lovers in mind. Its warmer voicing is intended to balance precision with a richer, smoother listening character, making it well suited for long sessions where emotional connection matters as much as technical resolution. The open-back design adds a spacious feel, while the AMT driver preserves the speed and clarity that define the platform. For critical playback or immersive music listening, the GT tuning gives this headphone a more engaging personality.

Adjustable Comfort With Premium Materials

The HEDDband system gives the HEDDphone TWO GT Unplugged a highly adjustable fit by letting users fine-tune height, width, curvature and clamping pressure. This design helps distribute the headphone’s 550 g weight more evenly while accommodating different head shapes and listening preferences. A soft ear pad set is included for long listening sessions, while carbon-fiber and magnesium components help reduce weight and support long-term durability. Embossed logo details and HEDDband stitching further reinforce the headphone’s premium fit and finish.

Streamlined Configuration for Dedicated Listeners

The Unplugged configuration is designed for listeners who prefer a simplified package while retaining the full sonic performance of the HEDDphone TWO GT platform. Instead of including multiple cables and ear pad options, this version ships with a travel case and a single set of ear pads, making it an appealing choice for users who already own compatible accessories. Designed and assembled in Berlin, the HEDDphone TWO GT Unplugged open-back headphones combine innovative AMT technology, premium comfort and refined tuning in a streamlined package built for serious listening.
