Description

Audio Technica ATH-AWKT/f Audiophile Closed-Back Dynamic Wooden Headphones

The ATH-AWKT over-ear headphones boast housings crafted from rare Japanese Kokutan (striped ebony) hardwood, known for its density and handsome black and brown stripes. This dense wood, traditionally used in woodwind instruments and pianos, effectively suppresses unwanted resonance, resulting in clear and natural sound reproduction. The hand-applied half-gloss finish accentuates the wood’s grain, enhancing its natural beauty.

Exceptional Audio Performance

Featuring exclusive 53mm drivers with highly efficient German Permendur magnetic circuitry, the ATH-AWKT headphones deliver exceptionally accurate audio with a wide sound field. Each driver's lightweight, durable titanium flange and 6N-OFC voice coil ensure precise diaphragm movement and signal transfer, while the exclusive D.A.D.S. (Double Air Damping System) provides smooth and accurate bass response, enriching the listening experience.

Comfortable and Secure Fit

The lightweight and highly rigid magnesium alloy arms hold the earcup housings securely in place, angled to provide the best possible fit and excellent earcup seal. The comfortable fit is further enhanced by the smooth, durable sheepskin earpads and headband, ensuring prolonged listening comfort even during extended sessions.

Versatile Connectivity Options

Equipped with A2DC (Audio Designed Detachable Coaxial) jacks, the ATH-AWKT headphones offer secure connections to the two included 3.0m detachable cables. One cable features a 6.3mm gold-plated stereo plug for standard audio equipment, while the other cable includes a 4-pin XLRM balanced connector for high-fidelity equipment, ensuring better channel separation for an optimal listening experience.

About High-Resolution Audio

High-Resolution Audio refers to audio formats capable of reproducing more detailed and accurate sound than standard CD audio. With lossless audio file formats and faster Internet speeds, there is a growing demand for Hi-Res Audio equipment. Audio-Technica's headphones meet the Hi-Res Audio standards, ensuring the full reproduction of extended sonic characteristics for an immersive listening experience.

A2DC – Audio-Technica's Proprietary Miniature Audio Connector

Since 2015, Audio-Technica has utilised the specially designed A2DC connector on all in-ear and select over-ear headphones with detachable cables. This connector ensures a reliable and high-quality audio connection, enhancing the overall listening experience with improved audio fidelity and connectivity.
