Know before you buy
The bone conduction drivers work alongside the balanced armatures to add physical texture and tactile impact to the lower frequencies. This creates a more immersive, holographic soundstage that you can feel as well as hear.
Yes. The AGIS II comes with a detachable 8-core cable that includes interchangeable 2.5mm, 3.5mm, and 4.4mm terminations, allowing you to connect to almost any standard headphone jack or balanced output.
The AGIS II features an ergonomic resin housing designed to fit securely in the ear canal. While fit is subjective, the lightweight construction is intended to minimize fatigue during extended use.
With an impedance of less than 35 ohms, the AGIS II is relatively easy to drive and can be powered by most modern smartphones, tablets, or portable DACs without requiring a high-powered desktop amplifier.
By combining balanced armatures with bone conduction technology, the AGIS II offers a more layered and textured sound profile than standard all-BA setups. You get the precise detail retrieval of armatures paired with a more natural, visceral bass response.
The AGIS II uses a standard 0.78mm 2-pin connector. This is a widely used industry standard, making it easy to source aftermarket replacement cables if you ever need a different length or material.
