Indulge in the unique and mysterious beauty of our
KUROGAKI wood headphones
The ATH-AWKG’s KUROGAKI wood housing possesses unique physical properties that contribute to exceptional sound quality. The lacquer finish, applied by hand by a skilled craftsman, brings out the natural beauty of the wood’s grain.
「Kurogaki」 is a wood that embodies the mysteries of nature and Japanese craftsmanship,
and is a perfect representation of Audio-Technica as a Japanese brand.
Kurogaki is not a species of tree, but a persimmon tree with a black pattern on the inside, found only on trees over 100 years old, and the drying process is very difficult,
requiring expertise and years of cultivation.
The drying process is very difficult and requires specialized knowledge and a high level of skill cultivated over many years.
As a result, it is also characterized by extremely low yields. Kurogaki's appeal is deeply connected to Japanese culture, as it was favored by aristocrats and literati in the Nara and Heian eras.
The housing is crafted from precious KUROGAKI wood with a hand-applied lacquer finish, harnessing the wood’s unique physical properties to deliver remarkably clear sound quality.
53 mm driver units with highly efficient German Permendur magnetic circuitry deliver powerful audio with an expansive sound field.
The driver’s lightweight, durable titanium flange allows the diaphragm to react to the signal more accurately.
A 6N-OFC (high-purity, oxygen-free copper) voice coil provides optimal signal transfer.
The D.A.D.S. (Double Air Damping System) structure provides deep bass reproduction.
Equipped with premium fabric-braided headphone cables for prevention of tangling:
Two detachable 3.0m cables with A2DC (Audio Designed Detachable Coaxial) connectors at the headphones
one with a 6.3mm gold-plated stereo plug, the other with a 4-pin XLR-M balanced connector.
The magnesium alloy headphone arm is angled to provide the best possible fit with an excellent earcup seal.
Stitched ergonomic earpads and headband are made from smooth, high-durability sheepskin for long-lasting comfort.
Japanese craftsmanship: All Audio-Technica wooden headphones are hand-assembled in Tokyo.
Comes with a wooden storage box adorned with KUROGAKI wood.
