About Audio-Technica ATH-AWKT

For the discerning audiophile seeking a stylish and high-quality listening experience, the ATH-AWKT Over-Ear Wooden Headphones are a premium choice. Crafted by the reputable brand, Audio-Technica, these headphones feature housings made from the rare Japanese hardwood Kokutan, also known as striped ebony. This dense wood, traditionally used for woodwind instruments and pianos, suppresses unwanted resonance, delivering a clear, natural sound reproduction that enhances your audio content.

The headphones' half-gloss finish, meticulously applied by hand, accentuates the natural beauty of the wood's grain. This aesthetic appeal, combined with the headphones' durable and comfortable design, makes them an ideal accessory for music enthusiasts.

Equipped with exclusive 53 mm drivers and highly efficient German Permendur magnetic circuitry, these headphones deliver exceptionally accurate audio with a wide sound field. The drivers feature a lightweight, durable titanium flange and 6N-OFC (high-purity, oxygen-free copper) voice coil, ensuring precise diaphragm movement and signal transfer for a superior audio experience.

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

For added comfort, these headphones feature smooth, durable sheepskin earpads and headband. The A2DC (Audio Designed Detachable Coaxial) jacks ensure secure connection to the two included 3.0 m (9.8') detachable cables. One cable features a 6.3 mm (1/4") gold-plated stereo plug for use with standard audio equipment, while the other cable includes a 4-pin XLRM balanced connector for use with the latest high-fidelity equipment, ensuring better channel separation.

In summary, the ATH-AWKT Over-Ear Wooden Headphones offer a premium, immersive listening experience, making them a top choice for audiophiles and music enthusiasts alike.
