Uncompromised Hi-Fi Quality. No Cables Required.

Astell&Kern's long-standing, fundamental principle is the reproduction of sound as true to the original source as possible.

The AK UW100, Astell&Kern's first fully wireless earphone, based on our proprietary audio technology,
provides uncompromising wireless Hi-Fi sound with no cables required.

A rarity for True Wireless Stereo (TWS*), the AK UW100 has a separate embedded high-performance 32-bit DAC
as well as a Balanced Armature driver for accurately reproducing sound, allowing the delivery of precise,
high-quality audio with no loss of detail.
aptX™ Adaptive audio codec support for exceptional audio quality is the final flourish,
ensuring the AK UW100 is ready for wireless Hi-Fi sound.

Combining all these features with ergonomic design and best-in-class Passive Noise Isolation (PNI),
the AK UW100 takes your listening experience to a dimension where only you and the artist exist.

*TWS (True Wireless Stereo) products use Bluetooth to connect to earbuds. No cables are required.

A New Benchmark for Wireless Audio

True Wireless Stereo has long been a focus of our product development.
For us TWS ultimately is a means of giving people the freedom to enjoy their music.

The AK UW100 is the result of Astell&Kern's uncompromising dedication to authentically replicating the original sound
even in the challenging wireless environment, as well as our laser focus on the essentials of audio transmission.

Digital signals are inaudible, so the DAC converts them into audible analog signals.
In the case of many generic TWS systems, the DAC is integrated with the BT chipset, meaning that the focus is on
lower power consumption rather than better sound quality, and that they have inherent physical limits
when it comes to improving sound quality.

On the other hand, by combining the unique amplifier and audio circuit technology from A&K’s digital audio players
with the AK4332, a 32-bit Hi-Fi DAC, the AK UW100 reproduces sound on a whole new level compared to the BT-chipset-integrated DAC.
Moreover, it enables clearer and more accurate sound reproduction in all genres by adopting the Knowles Balanced Armature Driver,
which is typically used in expensive IEM (in ear monitor) systems, instead of the Dynamic Drivers that are common in generic TWS systems.

The AK UW100 delivers the best wireless Hi-Fi audio you have ever experienced.

DESIGN

The AK UW100 is the first Hi-Fi TWS device based on Astell&Kern’s proprietary sound technologies. As with in-ear monitors (IEMs), it delivers the richness of the original sound intact and free from distortion, all through the freedom of wireless.

Just as Astell means "star" in Greek and Kern means "center" in German, so too Astell&Kern symbolizes the company’s core identity of representing the center of music. This identity also shapes the design philosophy of the AK UW100: the beauty of music is symbolized by a single star (Astell), embodying the twinkling and scattering of starlight.

The product design emphasizes the contrasting surfaces, allowing users to appreciate the shapes, colors, materials and finishes used in the earbuds and how they play with the light, and to picture in turn the stellar beauty and delicacy of the sound created by Astell&Kern as it is focused and diffused.

Designed to fit snugly in the ear, the earbuds' shape is transformed from a pentagon to a circle, just as the sound flowing through them transforms when it is gathered, refined and then reproduced with clarity.
