T10 Bespoke represents an entirely new category of advanced hearables technology — tiny in-ear computers about a third of the size of traditional wireless earphones, yet significantly more advanced. T10 Bespoke Ear Computers seamlessly blend high-style luxury materials and hand craftsmanship typical of fine jewelry and watchmaking with state-of-the-art wireless hi-fi audio. The audio signal path boasts a stunning 96kHz/24-bit audio resolution rendered through the LDAC codec, further enhanced by twin Cadence/Tensilica Hi-Fi DSP’s, passed next through ultra-efficient class-D amplifiers, and finally into your ears through acoustically accurate Sonion precision balanced-armature transducers.
“T10 Bespoke Ear Computers are the ultimate luxury statement. Affluent consumers have always been able to collect fine automobiles, yachts, and aircraft, while sporting high fashion, fine eyewear, precious jewelry, and other custom accessories,” says Patsy Nigh, co-founder of EAR Micro. “But to date, they have not been able to purchase true luxury earwear: products that deliver the best sound, the most advanced technology, and the best styling and craftsmanship in the world.”
Paul Jacobs, President & CEO of Klipsch Audio adds, “We’ve been working with EAR Micro for four years to bring T10 Bespoke Ear Computers to life. Together, we’ve leveraged everything Klipsch has learned over its 75+ year history building the world’s best-sounding speakers and headphones to ensure that T10 Bespoke Ear Computers set an entirely new precedent for what is possible with miniaturized wireless audio. We are proud of the result. The T10 Bespoke Ear Computers are like nothing the world has ever seen or heard before—capable of delivering the power, detail, and emotion of the live music experience inside your head, yet so diminutive in size that you or anyone else will barely notice you’re wearing them. Plus, they’re so comfortable they can be worn all day long and boast battery life to match.“
The second in our new collaboration with internationally acclaimed impressionist painter Kim Ahonoukoun, this incredible T10 Bespoke features hand-painted leather straight from Kim's talented hands. Often referred to as the next Monet, Kim's incredible work has been featured in galleries across the world.
Taking a cue from Kim's artistic vision, we contrasted the vibrant leather insert against plum PVD coated brushed bronze featuring a stunning knurled pattern. Plum cerakote was added to the charger cover, button, and earbud top and bottom covers to further accentuate this beautiful artwork. Pink accents on the ear computer frames provide a subtle contrast to the deeper plum earbud covers and white antenna face to capture the essence of Kim's art. No painting would be complete without the artist's signature and we have not disappointed. Kim's signature has been cast in 925 Sterling Silver to signify the piece is an original Kim Ahonoukoun.
Kim's collaboration includes the opportunity for T10 Bespoke customers to commission a full-size, custom painting for their home, office, or gallery along with a perfectly complimentary T10 Bespoke with matching hand-painted cover inserts. That way, you've always got a bit of Kim with you.
The element Carbon is the building block of life, embodying strength, versatility, and excellence. Through precise refining and engineering the Carbon Phantom features custom CNC-milled carbon fiber front and back charger covers for an extraordinarily unique, durable, and lightweight result. Through precise engineering and refining the Carbon Phantom features cover inserts of milled carbon fiber complemented by a black PVD coated solid bronze.
The Kim Duece features stunning hand-painted leather inserts nestled into plum Cerakote ceramic covers. Brushed plum metal, featuring a detailed knurled pattern, further accentuate the star of the piece. Pink Cerakote earbud frames subtly contrast against the plum Cerakote earbud top and bottom covers to further enhance Kim's work.
