Know before you buy
The case is built on the SKB 3i 1309-6 platform, which accommodates most standard over-ear headphones. However, extremely large or uniquely shaped studio headphones may be a tight fit, so it is best to verify your headphone dimensions against the internal cavity size.
Yes, the case features TSA-approved latches and an automatic pressure relief valve, making it designed specifically for air travel. Its compact footprint is generally suitable for carry-on storage, though you should always check with your specific airline for their current size restrictions.
The removable Omega Stand is designed to hold your headphones in their natural shape while stored or displayed. It helps prevent headband tension and keeps your gear organized within the case when you are not using them.
An IP67 rating means the case is completely dust-tight and can withstand immersion in water up to one meter deep for 30 minutes. It provides excellent protection against heavy rain, accidental spills, or humid environments during transit.
The interior features high-density foam on the sides and bottom, along with a dedicated central cutout for cables and small devices like DAPs. While the foam is structured for specific components, the central compartment offers enough flexibility to organize various small audio accessories.
