AudioQuest NightOwl Carbon Headphones Sweepstakes
According to the company:
A direct descendant of AudioQuest's award-winning NightHawk headphone, the closed-back NightOwl Carbon replaces its predecessor's biomimetic sound-diffusing grille with an intelligently designed aperiodic damping system for excellent isolation of external noise, ensuring privacy for the listener and those nearby.NightOwl ships with two sets of earpads—Protein Leather Boost Pads for slightly enhanced treble clarity and Ultrasuede pads for slightly reduced bass impact—and includes a high-performance, non-microphonic cable with discrete mic/smartphone controls that enable phone calls and playback functions (Play, Pause, Skip) without compromising sound quality.
NightOwl's distinct packaging is actually an attractive travel case made of genuine leather, featuring a thickly padded internal compartment and accommodations for various headphone accessories. With NightOwl, AudioQuest hopes headphone enthusiasts will feel inspired to listen longer, later, and with greater pleasure, enjoying unsurpassed comfort and deep immersion in music, videos, and games.

Who? Who? Who?
It would be awesome if I won!
dear god..
I have the 1st generation Nighthawks and they are excellent.
I'll take 'em, being as I'm a poor working man, and could never afford such a luxury. Pick me!!! :)
If I win, I will try pairing it with my AudioQuest Dragonfly.
Would be a fun pair of cans to review.
Really liked the NightHawk, so I'd love to win the NightOwl Carbon.
for the contests!
Please!
..these sound better than the Nighthawks!
Fingers crossed my Nighthawks get a new sibling.
Liking the specs on these...
Beautiful headphones. One can dream for headphones one cannot afford..
so here's his chance to make up for the oversight. Please, Santa, let me be the winner of these groovy new headphones!
I need this
The NightHawk, from all I've read on it, seems like a headphone that I would only pick up once in a blue moon. Hopefully the NightOwl will be something... different.
Sounds very interesting. How does it measure up?
Always been intrigued by this brand
me too!
I would love to give these a try :)
Have a pleasant day, ladies and gents!
I'm feeling lucky. Can't wait to hear the sonic performance from this new phones!
These would make a great replacement for my olde Grado 60's!
Bring it on...Daddy digs nice cans!
I've always thought the Night Hawks were handsome looking headphones. I hope to find out here at home that they sound as good as they look!
I cant wait to give these babies a listen!
Never won anything but who knows, maybe this beauty is gonna be added to my stack :D
These cans looks great!
I do hope I win, but good luck to all.

I promise to give them a good home, plenty of amplification, and lots of good music.
I wish i could win one of those contests.
Really nice from you guys to have such a giveaway. Maybe I'm lucky at least once?
This headphone is super interesting. Considering how good the Nighthawks sounded, I'm sure the Night Owls are a winner. Here's to our chances of getting one!

Winning comment
First time commenter.
Would love a pair of these! Thanks for the chance!
Would love to win these!
Love to give them a try.
I've heard some criticism of some darkness in the Nighthawk sound. I was bothered by some obscuring and congestion in the lower midrange, but use of an equalizer to cut the lower mid and midrange frequencies by 3 to 9 db made a huge difference, and now I am extremely pleased with their sound.
Beats any headphones I use now by a mile
Nice looking headphones.
please pick me
Fitting.
I hope I win!
I'll take it!
Would love to win these gorgeous headphones as I would never be able to justify to the missus buying a pair!!
Cheers.
Nighthawks are good, but these would be better.
Toss me in there too
Just can't wait until CanJam April 8-9 2017.
Tyll, I don't always agree with your conclusion, but I think I almost always agree with your methodology and analytical approach (not just of the gear, but of the industry, the culture, and the purpose of dedicated audio).
Hope to win!
These look awesome!
Looks great
Thank you to Audioquest and Innerfidelity for sponsoring this fantastic contest. I'd love to try the Carbons!
Best,
Kevin
Would love these
I bet these headphones sound as good as they look
Can't wait to try them.
I'm in love the design. I want to buy the Nighthawks carbons but I hope I win Nightowls!
Liquid wood evokes bakelite to me; I'd love to hold this in my hands.
These look amazing !
Here's my entry. Good luck to all!
I would love to add such a beautiful pair of closed back headphones to my collection.
Love my original NightHawks. Would love to add these to my collection!
I bet they sound as good as they look, I want 'em!
Sure would sound great to my ears! Love to win these.
These are one of the most comfortable headphones around. I convinced a friend to pick up a pair. Who knows, maybe I'll get lucky and find myself with a pair as well. GL to all and thanks for the giveaway!
I'm coveting this nut!
The headphone looks great. Good luck to you all, still hope I win.
Bring this headphone ON!
I've been jonesing for a Nighthawk since forever. The Nightowl Carbon looks even better (and hopefully will sound it, too).
Cool! Good luck and happy listening to all!
I would very much like to win a set of NightOwls!
Whooooo wants NightOwls?? I want NightOwls! Specs and looks have me craving a good long night of listening!
I already have Nighthawk, so I feel like a winner...
Would love to own these headphones

Big believer in all things Audioquest! Really would love to win these.
I Want one !

Hope I win!
You never know, I just might win.
Need a pair of audiophile cans.

I'd love to hear these in person!
YEP...I WANT'EM

Those look nice!
I'd love to win!
Since the Power Ball keeps eluding me. Maybe this will be my big win :)
Would like to experience the noise isolation effectiveness.
Here's hoping! 13
I won. Thank you in advance.
Hoping to win!
Nice headphone:)
I'm The Secret'ing my way to winning this
I could win.
... but I couldn't get over the liquidwood cups, which looked to me like a tobacco pipe from the 80s. The Nightowl is right up my alley, and likely would wrestle some seriously pricey headphones off my head. Fingers crossed :)
I hope I win, but I'm sure whoever wins will be happy.
I trust they'll operate in daylight, as well? #ducking
I love the look of these and would love to listen to them!
I already love my Nighthawks, but am dying to hear the Owls. Build quality is some of the best and the warm sound is fantastic.
These look great. Would love to win a pair!
hope im not too late.
good luck everyone.
