Velvety Warm. Great for Low Volume Listening

Beside the fact that they are absolutely beautiful, these cans are extremely comfortable despite the added weight from the cherry wood. They are exceptionally warm so they're probably not the best choice for reference geeks. The cables are a bit thin for the price but that's nitpicking and I haven't checked the after market for upgrading them. Their greatest strength is the beautiful sound you get at low volume levels. None of my other hi-price cans compare to these in this aspect.

Find unparalleled audio quality and aesthetic appeal with the ATH-AWAS Audiophile Hi-Resolution Closed-Back Dynamic Over-Ear Wooden Headphones. Crafted from the rare Asada Zakura, or Japanese Cherry wood, these headphones are not only visually striking but also acoustically superior. The wood, celebrated for its excellent acoustic properties and durability, suppresses unwanted resonance within the earcups, delivering clear, natural sound reproduction.

Each headphone is adorned with a hand-applied half-gloss finish, highlighting the wood's gentle grain and warm beauty. The headphones are powered by exclusive 53 mm drivers, equipped with potent magnetic circuitry, an integrated pure-iron yoke, and a DLC (diamond-like carbon) coating. These features, combined with 6N-OFC (high-purity, oxygen-free copper) voice coils, ensure exceptional full-range audio reproduction that will satisfy even the most discerning audiophile.

The ATH-AWAS headphones also incorporate Audio-Technica's exclusive D.A.D.S. (Double Air Damping System). This innovative system divides the housing structure into two separate acoustic chambers, delivering smooth, accurate bass response. The headphone arms, constructed from a lightweight yet highly rigid magnesium alloy, are angled to provide an optimal fit and excellent earcup seal.

Comfort is further enhanced by the smooth, synthetic leather earpads and headband, making these headphones a pleasure to wear for extended periods. The headphones also feature A2DC (Audio Designed Detachable Coaxial) jacks for a secure connection to the two included 3.0 m (9.8') detachable cables. One cable is fitted with a 6.3 mm (1/4") gold-plated stereo plug for compatibility with standard audio equipment, while the other features a 4-pin XLRM balanced connector, designed for use with high-fidelity equipment to achieve superior channel separation.

Experience the perfect blend of style, comfort, and high-resolution audio with the ATH-AWAS Audiophile Hi-Resolution Closed-Back Dynamic Over-Ear Wooden Headphones.
