MSRP for AXC will be updated to $319 effective 11 March.


On the blood-soaked field of quaking ground,
Ares roars, his power profound.
Amid the chaos, sharp and bright,
Cadmus wields clarity, pure as light.



Intertwined, their essence refined,
A union of forces perfectly aligned.
With newfound dynamics, both high and low,
They master the spectrum, a flawless flow.

Comparison to Eros S II

While the Eros S II focuses on #MUSICALITY—bringing out the soul and emotional depth of your music with a smoother presentation—the A×C leans into #DYNAMICS.

The A×C offers a unique balance, blending the technical brilliance of Cadmus II and the emotional warmth of Ares S II, creating an engaging yet powerful auditory experience.

When it comes to genre suitability, #DYNAMICS excel in genres like rock, EDM, hip-hop, and metal, where heightened contrast and energy amplify the excitement of bass drops, electric guitar riffs, and rapid beats. The A×C’s dynamic blend ensures each note strikes with precision and power, making it perfect for high-energy tracks that demand impact and detail.

Hardware Design

Inspired by the Signature Series II, the Ares S II × Cadmus II features a refined Y-split design that blends warm copper flakes from Ares S II with silver speckles from Cadmus II—symbolizing perfect duality and balance.
