Crescendo's #1 choice of headphone.
We've tried and tested a large number of headphones and have found these to be the most comfortable experience. Sony MDR-7506 headphones have been the gold standard studio monitor headphones for over 20 years and continue to be a top choice at the intersection of function and price.
You can usually find these at lower cost directly through Sony and Amazon!

No subwoofers — Crescendo products use tactile transducers, which convert audio signals into vibration you feel rather than loud sound you hear. That means you get the physical sensation of bass without needing to blow out your ears at high volume. Once you step away from the vibration source, the systems generate very little noise.
Imagine feeling music with your entire body, like lying on a massive body-sized speaker without the volume. Pairing tactile bass with the audio from headphones or speakers turns listening into an embodied experience — whether you're lying on a Daybed, dancing on a tactile floor, or relaxing in a bass lounge.
Users report calmer nervous systems and reduced sensory-processing triggers, deeper meditation, yoga, and bodywork sessions, and a premium listening experience with full-bodied bass at moderate — and safer — volume levels. Many also use Crescendo to create an immersive focal point for parties and shared listening.
No — any music works. The vibration follows the low-frequency elements already in a track, so anything with a strong bass line feels best. We also maintain curated playlists on Spotify if you want a starting point.
Bass Tiles scale from a single lounge booth to a full festival floor — bottle-service and VIP lounges, tactile dance floors, group listening and retreat spaces, and more. Installation size is limited only by available power, and we offer both rental and purchase options.
Yes — the Daybed was built with wellness and therapeutic use in mind, including music therapy, ketamine-assisted and psychedelic therapy, and sensory-regulation support for children, adults, and the deaf and hard-of-hearing community.
Our products are designed to direct vibration to the user and minimize what transfers into the floor. Some vibration transfer is unavoidable, so we offer vibration-isolation pads for the Daybed's legs for an extra layer of isolation — reach out and we're happy to talk through your specific space.
Every order comes with a 30-day trial. If it's not for you, return it in good condition for a full refund — you just cover return shipping.
