Audio Technica debuts in ear solid bass​Headphone

Audio-Technica, the award-winning choice of studio professionals and musicians, is enabling music-lovers to experience full and textured bass levels more viscerally with the addition of four in-ear headphones to its popular Solid Bass® range. The new range of products features the revolutionary Deep Motion High-Res Audio Drivers and Dual Phase Push-Pull Drivers for an enhanced audio experience.

Bass heads who love music with heart-thumping power and punch can now listen to hard rock, hip-hop, metal, electronica and other bass-driven music the way it is meant to be heard, at affordable price points and in absolute comfort. The high-resolution audio is a first for Solid Bass. Although the Solid bass line-up focuses on bass, Audio-Technica has still managed to maintain the low-, mid- and high-frequency components of music without overpowering each other.

CKS1100iS
The ATH-CKS1100iS uses two facing 12.5mm, Dual Phase Push-Pull drivers which improves response with outstanding linearity resulting in enhanced acoustic reproduction, delivering expressive sound with reduced distortion over a wide range of frequencies. The CKS1100iS comes with high-resolution audio which is a first for Solid Bass. With the Dual Airflow Bass Venting System, it provides precise control of diaphragm movement for high-resolution audio. To improve high-frequency characteristics, the CKS1100iS has DLC (diamond-like carbon) with high hardness close to diamond in front of the diaphragm.

The addition of machined aluminum housings reduces unwanted vibration from driver movement for extended mid-high frequency reproduction. The exclusive A2DC-type (Audio Designed Detachable Coaxial) detachable 1.2m cable increases the resistance and maintenance of the noise.
