- Metal housing processed with CNC machining
- Oxygen-free copper cable with pure silver coating
- Made in Japan
Improved construction and precise crossover
The AK ZERO2 is a "Quad-brid" headphone with a central array of drivers and a finely-tuned crossover with low noise levels. Four different types of drivers, including armature, planar, and dynamic drivers, as well as a 10mm dynamic driver with a piezoelectric emitter, create perfect synergy.
A new perspective on sound from Astell&Kern
The Micro Rectangular Planar Dynamic Driver ensures clear and dynamic high-frequency sound. The company has managed to fit a full-sized planar radiator into the compact housing of the in-ear headphones. Engineers chose a lightweight yet durable planar membrane and used a trembler with a thin metallic diaphragm and polymer film to create realistic high frequencies.
Dual Custom BA Drivers for precise tuning
The perfectly balanced and rich sound is made possible by the Coil Parameter Dual Custom BA Driver, a specially designed driver. The block consists of a total of four drivers: two drivers that provide ultra-low distortion for transparent vocal sound at low and mid-frequencies, and two drivers that provide perfectly balanced saturated sound, uniquely tuned to harmonize each frequency range.
10mm dynamic driver with piezoelectric emitter
The driver handles low and high frequencies, delivering deep bass and clear high-frequency sound. Various carefully designed emitters create rich Hi-Fi sound. The 10mm dynamic driver used in the AK ZERO2 is manufactured using a fully automated process, allowing it to reproduce rich and deep low frequencies. An additional piezoelectric emitter works in tandem with the dynamic driver, acting as a super tweeter that announces its presence in the ultra-high-frequency range.
Low noise level crossover
The ultra-precise crossover ensures the perfect balance between six drivers with different sound characteristics, maximizing the use of each one and creating a balanced and harmonious sound.
3D printing
Each emitter is optimally placed in an acoustic chamber created using advanced 3D printing technology. This design eliminates unnecessary driver movement and resonance, ensuring constant stable performance.
Stylish housing
The housing is made using advanced aluminum processing technology from Astell&Kern, limiting resonance to create stable high-quality sound.
Oxygen-free copper cable with silver coating
The oxygen-free copper cable, coated with pure silver, is designed to maximize the performance of the AK ZERO2. It is made with highest quality materials and adds aesthetic appeal with aluminum connectors. The MMCX connectors provide reliable connection and durability.
Made in Japan
Each AK ZERO2 headphone is assembled by experienced professional technicians and produced using state-of-the-art equipment in Japan, offering the highest quality through strictly controlled processes.
Design
The AK ZERO2 is a bold step forward compared to the AK ZERO1, setting a new standard for sound quality. The hexagonal shape with a diagonal cut makes a strong impression. The design of the AK ZERO2 is specifically crafted to naturally fit your ears and allow for comfortable enjoyment of music. The colorful shapes change depending on the lighting, offering completely new impressions alongside unparalleled sound.
