Audio Technica ATH-AWAS


Audiophile Closed-back Dynamic Wooden Headphones


For the housings of the ATH-AWAS over-ear wooden headphones, we’’ve selected the rare Asada Zakura (Japanese cherry) wood. 

Renowned for its use in high-end audio speakers due to its fine acoustic characteristics and durability, the striking red Asada Zakura suppresses unwanted resonance inside the ear cups for clear, natural sound reproduction. 

The half-gloss finish, applied by hand, accentuates the wood’s gentle grain and warm beauty. 

The headphones are equipped with exclusive 53 mm drivers with powerful magnetic circuitry, integrated pure-iron yoke, DLC (diamond-like carbon) coating, and 6N-OFC (high-purity, oxygen-free copper) voice coils for exceptional full-range audio reproduction. 

Our exclusive D.A.D.S. (Double Air Damping System), which divides the housing structure into two separate acoustic chambers, ensures smooth, accurate bass response. 

The arms that hold the housings are made from a lightweight, highly rigid magnesium alloy. 

The arms are angled to provide the best possible fit with excellent ear cup seal. 

The comfortable fit is enhanced by smooth, synthetic leather ear pads and headband. The headphones also feature A2DC (Audio Designed Detachable Coaxial) jacks for secure connection to the two included 3.0 m (9.8') detachable cables. 

One cable has a 6.3 mm (1/4") gold-plated stereo plug for use with standard audio equipment. 

The other cable features a 4-pin XLRM balanced connector for use with the latest high-fidelity equipment to achieve better channel separation.

A2DC – Audio-Technica's Proprietary Miniature Audio Connector


Since 2015, Audio-Technica has used the specially designed A2DC (Audio Designed Detachable Coaxial) connector on all of our in-ear headphones and select over-ear headphones with detachable cables. 

But why did we develop this connector and what makes it perform better than existing connectors in audio applications?
