Audio Technica ATH-AWAS Audiophile Closed Back Dynamic Wooden Headphones

Crafted from the rare Asada Zakura Japanese cherry wood, the ATH-AWAS over-ear headphones represent Audio-Technica’s commitment to premium acoustic engineering. This striking red timber, prized for high-end speaker construction, naturally suppresses unwanted resonance within the earcups whilst delivering clear, natural sound reproduction. The hand-applied half-gloss finish beautifully highlights the wood’s gentle grain and warm character.

At the heart of these headphones lie exclusive 53mm drivers featuring powerful magnetic circuitry, integrated pure-iron yoke, DLC (diamond-like carbon) coating, and 6N-OFC high-purity oxygen-free copper voice coils. Audio-Technica’s proprietary D.A.D.S. (Double Air Damping System) divides the housing into two separate acoustic chambers, ensuring smooth and accurate bass response across the full frequency range.

The lightweight yet rigid magnesium alloy arms are precisely angled to provide optimal fit and excellent earcup seal, whilst synthetic leather earpads and headband ensure long-wearing comfort. Two detachable 3.0m cables are included via secure A2DC (Audio Designed Detachable Coaxial) connections – one featuring a 6.3mm gold-plated stereo plug for standard equipment, and another with a 4-pin XLRM balanced connector for high-fidelity systems requiring superior channel separation.
