Audio-Technica Import Ath-Ew9 Adjustable Wooden Clip-On Earphone |
Clip-on headphones have been very popular with joggers, but serious audiophiles shrug it off as a gimmick not worth spending money on. Most clip-on headphones are also cheap pieces that rarely have decent audio capabilities. Audio Technica sought to change that impression with the ATH-EW9 Audio Technica Headphones. This pair of headphones is built like other clip-on headphones, but that is where the similarity ends. For one thing, the ATH-EW9 Audio Technica Headphones is made with polished cherrywood earpieces that give it a classic look. For one thing, it is very rare that you find headphones made with wooden parts. This pair is made with top-quality Japanese Hokkaido cherrywood. It was cut by expert craftsmen and polished to a semi-glossy finish. By the looks of it, the ATH-EW9 Audio Technica Headphones will be right at home on that dark wood desk you have in your office.
The ATH-EW9 Audio Technica Headphones’ classic look comes at a price, but this is justified by the headphone’s high performance capabilities and sturdy build. The beautiful Hokkaido cherrywood earpieces are mounted on sturdy metal swivel clips. The swivel clips can easily click into position due to a well-designed vertical hinge. Being a pair of clip-on headphones, the ATH-EW9’s foam pads exert minimal pressure on your ears, allowing for a comfortable audio experience. Because of the way it is worn, you will also forget that you are wearing it after a few minutes. It will take a little getting used to at first; but after the first few minutes, you’ll forget they’re even there. The experience is very similar to wearing glasses for the first time.
The ATH-EW9 Audio Technica Headphones’ plugs are also very well built. The plugs usually found on other inferior headphones are usually made of molded plastic, but the plugs on the ATH-EW9 are made from precision milled metal. Everything about this pair of headphones is meant to exude luxury. Thus, even the special carrying case it comes with looks really good.
The main drawback to a clip-on design is that sound from the outside can easily leak in. So, on busy streets and noisy subway trains, the ATH-EW9 may not be the best choice. If you crank up the volume, sound can also leak to the outside and people near you might be annoyed. These things aside, the ATH-EW9 seems to have been designed with indoor use in mind.
The ATH-EW9 Audio Technica Headphones offer crystal clear audio quality with clear mids and a defined bass. Given the ATH-EW9’s focus on clarity, this is the perfect pair for listening to jazz music and classical music where tonal clarity is very important. It is also great for acoustic pieces, but you’d best look elsewhere if you want to listen to heavier music like rock and metal. This pair of headphones does a great job in ensuring that individual instruments in an orchestra or a band can easily be distinguished. The ATH-EW9 also does a great job for wind instruments like the saxophone and trumpet.
The ATH-EW9 clip-on earphone is show-stopper. The sound is amazing, too, 28 mm neodymium magnets have powerful projection. These dynamic earphones offer a secure, comfortable ear-fitting design and an innovative sliding axis for easy adjustment and a truly custom fit. Soft rubber support loops and large, lightweight ear hangers are engineered for hours of listening without fatigue.
