“RAAL-requisite introduced the true-ribbon technology to headphones, pioneering its way into Head-Fi. Our goal at R-r was to offer great sounding, yet sensibly priced headphones and ancillary parts. RAAL 1995 is here to unleash the full potential of the technology and expand it’s performance to the next level.”

What is the confusion? Couple new expensive headphones with ribbon drivers. What am I missing?

The company name change? What’s behind it?

Feels a little bit like when Toyota makes luxury cars under the Lexus brand. But here you have to keep the RAAL brand upfront, as it's synonymous with ribbons.

The email I got about it is just very all over the place, but there's no webpage version so I can't link to it.

Not sure why he chose to create a new brand, but: I listened to the Immanis at the World of Headphones in Heidelberg (see thread), and they were the most impressive headphones I ever listened to. Too expensive, though.
