Description

64 Audio x Astell&Kern

XIO is the culmination of Astell&Kern and 64Audio’s shared philosophy on design and sound. Blending precision engineering with artistic sensibility, XIO goes beyond simply playing music. It shapes sound into a tangible experience, offering value that surpasses expectations.

Designed as a true object of art, XIO sets a new standard for high-end in-ear monitors—an uncompromising fusion of aesthetics and acoustics that redefines what’s possible.

Designed as a singular object, XIO sets a new standard for high-end in-ear monitors through its uncompromising approach to both aesthetics and acoustics.


64 Audio has established itself as an innovative company that pushes the boundaries of IEMs, thanks to a team of top professionals and proprietary patented technologies.

“XIO boldly opens a new chapter in the evolution of high-end in-ear monitors. It goes beyond simply reproducing sound—it embodies our philosophy of sculpting sound itself. By combining mechanical perfection with musical sensibility, XIO creates value that exceeds expectations.”

10-Drivers Hybrid System

tiaⓇ waveguide

The tia Ⓡ driver is designed with a direct-radiating structure that eliminates the traditional sound tube, enhancing the delicacy of high frequencies. This design minimises damping and distortion, while the precisely positioned driver, together with a custom waveguide system, delivers a deep sense of space and airy, detailed highs.

BA Driver Manifold

Mid and upper-mid frequencies are powered by six and one balanced armature drivers, respectively, delivering smooth transitions and rich texture. Vocals, instruments, and their unique harmonic details are rendered warm and clear, creating a natural and well-balanced sense of space within the soundstage.

TRUE ISOBARIC Dual Dynamic Driver

The TRUE ISOBARIC structure features two dynamic drivers perfectly synchronised within an acoustically neutral coupling chamber, enabling precise control. This design delivers bass with exceptional depth and density, as well as powerful sound impact, surpassing what is typically possible with conventional IEMs.



Patented Technology

lid_logoLinear Impedance Design (LID) is a patented circuit that compensates for nonlinear resistance between drivers, ensuring consistent sound quality regardless of changes in the output impedance of the source device.
This technology provides a stable sound signature and accurate frequency response at all times.

tia_logoTubeless In-Ear Audio (tia) is a patented IEM design that minimizes resonance and distortion, delivering clear and vivid sound.
The tia system consists of the tia driver, single-bore design, and acoustic chamber. XIO adopts the tia driver and single-bore structure to capture the pure essence of sound.

apex_logoapex (Air Pressure Exchange) is a patented venting system that naturally releases pressure from the sealed ear canal while maintaining excellent noise isolation.
This technology reduces listening fatigue during extended sessions and provides a much wider, more realistic soundstage.
The m15 module, standard with XIO, is specially redesigned for XIO with DLC coating on 904L stainless steel, making it a unique apex solution exclusive to this model.



Precision-milled 904L Stainless Steel Shell

The exterior of XIO goes beyond that of a typical IEM, standing out as an “audio art piece” that satisfies both visual and tactile senses.
Its robust structure is crafted by precisely machining 904L stainless steel—a material harder and more challenging to work with than standard stainless steel—and is then finished with a luxurious black DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coating for an exceptional premium texture.
The faceplate exhibits Astell&Kern’s design heritage, projecting a three-dimensional and elegant presence through deep shading and delicate reflections.

Silver Plated UP-OCC Copper Litz Cable

This dedicated cable, specially crafted for XIO, is designed to achieve perfect aesthetic harmony with the earbuds.
The four-core cross-braided cable is made from silver-plated, single-crystal copper (UP-OCC), offering outstanding noise shielding and transparent signal transmission.
With a low impedance of just 0.29 Ω, it maximises electrical efficiency.



Handcrafted IEM Made in the USA

64 Audio uses carefully selected components sourced from trusted partners around the world. Skilled engineers in the United States meticulously carry out every step of design, assembly, and quality control.
