Description



The Power of Bone Conduction


Bone conduction redefines audio with cutting-edge technology. No in-ear insertion—sound transmits directly through skull bones, keeping you aware of surroundings for safety. Lightweight and secure, it stays stable during workouts without discomfort. Clear sound, ergonomic design, perfect for commuting, sports, and the office. A smart blend of innovation and comfort, unlocking a freer way to listen.



Acoustic Architecture

True excellent sound quality never comes from the solitary efforts of a single driver, but rather the harmonious coexistence of different drivers, such as dynamic, moving iron, and electrostatic drivers, which collide to create an auditory feast beyond imagination. The dynamic driver brings a warm and mellow sound, carrying the fullness and atmosphere of low frequencies. Every dive of the low frequencies is steady and powerful, restoring the most authentic warmth of the sound. The moving iron driver is precise and delicate, unlocking the clarity and resolution of mid-to-high frequencies. The breath of vocals and the overtones of instruments are clearly distinguishable, bidding farewell to blurriness and turbidity. The electrostatic driver brings out every detail, fully extending the high frequencies, creating an ethereal and transparent sound that is not harsh, allowing every sound detail to be gently captured.









MEST vs MEST MKII


dBC-s in MEST MKII vs
Bone Conduction Driver in the MEST. Both sensitivity and response range are significantly improved.
MEST MKII uses double sides piezoelectric bone conduction driver. The driver is placed between two supporting plates. At the centre of the driver is the vibration board covered by ceramic coating on both the front and back.

The bone conduction driver now has a larger contacting area with the shells (double-sided contact with the shell), which largely increased the transmission efficiency and sensitivity.
dBC-s has an effective frequency response range from 500Hz to 20KHz, which carries out a full-range refinement.



The sound of bone conduction

When we eat a biscuit, we hear it crack because vibrations are transmitted through our teeth and skulls to our inner ear. Bone conduction sounds can be heard as we eat, drink or scratch our heads.

Early application:

Ludwig van Beethoven, the famous 18th-century composer who was almost entirely deaf, discovered Bone Conduction. Beethoven found a way to hear the piano’s sound through his jawbone by attaching a rod to his piano and clenching it in his teeth.

MEST MKII applies bone conduction technology and transmits a specific frequency range by vibrating the shells’ inner parts. The sound will bypass the nozzles and directly deliver to your inner ears by contacting your skull skin.

The bone conduction drivers are made of metal vibration pieces that are covered by piezoelectric ceramics. The ceramic layers will bend the metal vibration pieces to make micro-vibrations according to the changes of input alternating voltage.

One Piece Carbon Fibre Shell

One Piece Carbon Fibre Shell—The Bone Conduction Driver’s effectiveness depends on the fitting coherence and skin contact. MEST MKII utilised an ergonomic shell design for universal shells, which improved the compactness significantly. The shell itself is also smaller and lighter.



Driver Configuration Design

MEST MKII utilised a quadbrid design. It uses a dynamic driver for the bass, which usually has a more natural-sounding bass than the Balanced Armature bass solution. However, Balanced Armature drivers have advantages in resolution, especially for Mids and Treble.

Based on the DD plus BA hybrid design, we added two electrostatic drivers for Ultra-High Treble extension. Finally, the freshly upgraded dbc-S Dual Sides Bone Conduction System carries out a full-range refinement. The frequency range of MEST MKII can reach as high as 70 kHz.



The Upgraded Metal Vents

The upgraded metal vents with the brand-new design ensure the same amount of airflow going into the driver’s house from the back end, which reveals the full potential of the dynamic driver.
