Japanese company Audio-Technica recently launched succession models for its popular Solid Base® lineup that offer more intense full and textured bass levels with the addition of three in-ear and over-ear headphones. Regardless of how you desire to experience music, these new headphones are meant to revamp your audio.
The Solid Bass® lineup offers high-resolution sound that amplifies bass thanks to its Deep Motion High-Res Audio Drivers and Dual Phase Push-Pull Drivers, yet it maintains the low-, mid- and high-frequency components of the musical compositions without overpowering its quintessence, delivering bass-driven music the way its meant to be heard.
ATH-CKS550iS Solid Bass In Ear Headphones (RM229; available in Black Gold, Black, Blue, Red, and White)
Engineered for deep sounding bass, these in ear headphones that come with four sizes of silicone in-canal tips and a standard 3.5mm gold-plated L-shaped mini-plug surprisingly deliver a very well-balanced sound. Thanks to its Dual Magnetic-Field Drivers, the bass produced is precise, crisp and solid without being extremely overwhelming.
Investing in a good pair of noise-cancelling headphones is imperative especially when you commute or travel often, and these headphones have proved to be one of the top performers in terms of air damping due to its Airflow-Bass Venting System. Its ability to isolate sound is fantastic and there’s no questioning it.
There’s no doubt that these headphones look a little peculiar on their own, but when worn, its ergonomic design eliminates discomfort and we can wear these headphones on hours on end with no issue. Moreover, they look effortlessly stylish – especially in the Black Gold option – and are easy to carry around.
ATH-WS770iS Solid Bass Over Ear Headphones (RM380; available in Black Red and Gun Metal)
Featuring the 53mm drivers which deliver impactful bass, these over ear headphones surpassed our expectations when it boils down to producing smooth, accurate midrange and treble, making electronic music come to life. Additionally, this model has a Dual-aluminium rigid enclosure with aluminium stabiliser and an anti-vibration design to produce precise mid-high frequency.
Although the headphones naturally look and feel quite bulky, they aren’t heavy and are comfortable to wear for extended hours. Instead of straining parts of the ears with intense pressure, these over-the-ear style cups somehow encase the entire ear within the soft ear pads. The clamp force isn’t too strong and the weight of the headphones isn’t entirely on the ears.
Both the ATH-CKS550iS in ear headphones and the ATH-WS770iS over ear headphones feature an in-line remote for users to control volume, play, pause, fast forward and rewind music, compatible with Apple and Android devices. It also enables for answering calls.
