Know before you buy
With an impedance of 13Ω and a sensitivity of 99dB/mW, these headphones are relatively easy to drive. However, because they come with a 4.4mm balanced termination, you will need a digital audio player or a DAC/amp that supports a balanced 4.4mm output to use the included cable.
Yes. The A10000 utilizes standard MMCX connectors, which allows you to easily detach and replace the cable with any compatible aftermarket option.
The over-ear design is engineered for comfort during extended use. Weighing in at 63g, they are lightweight enough to minimize fatigue, though the stainless steel housing provides a solid, premium feel on the head.
No, the A10000 relies on passive noise isolation. The over-ear design creates a physical seal around your ears to naturally block out ambient noise, which is effective for focused listening in relatively quiet environments.
The diamond diaphragm is exceptionally rigid and lightweight, which helps the driver move with high precision. This results in faster transient response and reduced distortion, leading to a more detailed and accurate sound reproduction.
