Magnesium V3
$99.00 USD
Description
Magnesium is the Product Of The Year SoundStage! Network!
The Mg IEM utilizes a high magnesium content alloy (96% Mg) for the diaphragm material. Magnesium is the least dense of all stable metals. Magnesium is also very high on the stiffness-to-weight ratio, and that is why it’s used in automotive and aerospace applications. These two properties result in a highly efficient, low distortion transducer foundation.
All components inside our IEMs was 100% designed and tooled in-house, resulting a totally unique product. Each component was designed to do its function, be as light weight as possible, and easy to assemble. All components are keyed so that assembly is nearly fool-proof. All components were finite-element analyzed for stress, strain, and durability.
The sonic signature of the Mg IEM is relatively neutral but with a brighter top end than our Be unit. Many people prefer this sound for use in noisier environments. Ideal genres are blues, jazz, and acoustic/folk.
All our IEMs feature Eastman Tritan™ bodies for high strength and zero resonance, custom front-and-rear tuned volumes, Metal-Injected-Molded grade 304 stainless steel logo caps, butyl rubber strain reliefs, chemically etched grade 316 stainless steel grilles, and N48H grade magnets. And bonded together and sealed in precision alignment with cyanoacrylate and polyvinyl acetate adhesives.
Every IEM set comes with a full set of accessories. We manufacture our own earbuds from medical grade silicones and urethanes, and we include small, medium, and large sizes of single flange, dual flange and foam units. We stamp our own screw-top carry tin sized to fit inside the coin pocket of a pair of your favorite jeans. And you’ll get adapters that let you use your IEMs with any equipment, whether at home (the 1/4″ gold plated adapter jack) or on the go (the lightweight, gold plated airplane adapter).

I See a Detachable Cable? What’s That About?
We have also developed our own 2.5mm jack: the IDEEL connector. This connector is the world’s smallest 2.5mm jack, measuring just 3.6mm across, and a tiny 9.5mm mounting depth. This jack allows us to use the very robust 2.5mm TS plug in our tiny IEMs. No more delicate MMCX or difficult 2 pin plastic connectors needed.

Evan J. –
I saw the V2 back a few years ago with it was a top pick on Stereo Review. Decided a month ago to get a pair of the V3 because I want detachable cables. All I can say is I wasted 3 years not having these! For $99 these Mg units are amazing! Like I hear everything and I can actually feel the bass, like real speakers, but it’s not overpowering or too much. And they are really comfortable I commute about 90 minutes each way in the Bay area and I wear them at the office a lot too so I use them about 10-11 hours a day and my ears don’t hurt at all. I’m using the large single tips they included they seal and feel great. Thank you Periodic for the great IEMs!
