Audio-Technica ATH-AWAS Audiophile Closed-Back Dynamic Wooden Headphones

Exquisite Hi-Res Audio with Japanese Cherry Wood Craftsmanship

Experience the pinnacle of high-fidelity audio with the Audio-Technica ATH-AWAS, a closed-back audiophile headphone handcrafted in Tokyo using rare Asada Zakura (Japanese cherry) wood. Renowned for its use in high-end audio speakers, this striking red wood delivers exceptional acoustic characteristics, suppressing unwanted resonance for clear, natural sound reproduction. The hand-applied half-gloss finish accentuates the wood’s gentle grain and warm beauty, creating a stunning aesthetic that deepens with age. Certified for Hi-Res Audio (96 kHz/24-bit or better), the ATH-AWAS ensures every sonic detail shines through with remarkable clarity.

Equipped with exclusive 53mm drivers featuring powerful magnetic circuitry, an integrated pure-iron yoke, DLC (diamond-like carbon) coating, and 6N-OFC (high-purity, oxygen-free copper) voice coils, these headphones deliver exceptional full-range audio reproduction. The Double Air Damping System (D.A.D.S.) divides the housing into two acoustic chambers, ensuring smooth, accurate bass response. Whether you’re mixing in a home studio or savoring lossless audio, the ATH-AWAS offers a balanced soundstage with rich lows, precise mids, and crisp highs, perfect for discerning listeners.

Designed for comfort and durability, the ATH-AWAS features a magnesium alloy headphone arm angled for an optimal earcup seal, paired with smooth synthetic leather earpads and headband for long-lasting comfort during extended sessions. Two detachable 3-meter A2DC (Audio Designed Detachable Coaxial) cables—one with a 6.3mm (1/4") gold-plated stereo plug and another with a 4-pin XLRM balanced connector—provide versatile connectivity for standard and high-fidelity systems.
