Astell & Kern, the South Korean manufacturer of high-end audio, is once again pushing the boundaries of wireless sound with their latest offering – the Astell&Kern AK UW100MKII wireless earbuds. Tailored for those who crave superior audio quality and refined aesthetics, these second-generation earbuds are poised to impress even the most discerning audiophiles.
In a world where sound quality takes precedence, the UW100MKII earbuds deliver an astounding 29 hours of combined playtime from the earbuds and the charging case, or an impressive 9.5 hours from just the earbuds alone. This marks a significant improvement from their predecessor, highlighting Astell&Kern’s commitment to enhancing the user experience.
Digging deeper into the technical aspects, the UW100MKII earbuds boast an embedded 32-bit DAC and an advanced full-range balanced armature driver, supported by a meticulously designed circuit for unrivaled stability and reduced distortion. The redesigned acoustic chamber sets a new benchmark for true wireless sound, according to the experts at Astell&Kern.
The earbuds also come packed with modern conveniences, featuring Qualcomm’s cVc Generation 8.0 dual microphones per earbud for crystal-clear calls and minimal background noise. They support multipoint pairing and Google’s Fast Pair service, ensuring seamless connectivity with Android devices via Bluetooth Low Energy and Bluetooth 5.2.
The Astell&Kern exclusive app further amplifies the listening experience, offering a 10-band EQ for tailored sound customization. While lacking active noise cancellation, these earbuds are all about elevating sound quality to new heights.
The Astell&Kern AK UW100MKII wireless earbuds are poised to hit the market in early October 2023, priced at $280. For those seeking the perfect blend of style, innovation, and impeccable sound quality, these earbuds stand as a testament to Astell & Kern’s unwavering commitment to sonic excellence.
