Knowles Supertweeters Power New EarSonics Precision In-Ear Monitors

French in-ear monitor specialist EarSonics has selected Knowles to provide balanced armature (BA) drivers for its new EM96 Customizable In-Ear Monitor (IEM). Now available, the EM96 is the first IEM from a European manufacturer to utilize two Knowles Supertweeters, working alongside two Knowles woofers and two mid-range BA drivers for a three-way crossover. Leveraging Knowles’ patented coil design and high-stiffness, low-mass reed, the Supertweeter achieves an exceptional treble frequency extension without additional amplification.

Now available on the Earsonics website, the EM96 is the first IEM from a European manufacturer to utilize two Knowles Supertweeters, working alongside two Knowles woofers and two mid-range BA drivers for a three-way crossover. Leveraging Knowles’ patented coil design and high-stiffness, low-mass reed, the Supertweeter achieves an exceptional treble frequency extension without additional amplification.
 

Knowles BAs have long been a favorite of IEM designers thanks to their small form factor, powerful output, and treble extension capabilities. As manufacturers increasingly recognize the importance of high-frequency treble response, the new Earsonics EM96 delivers precision and fidelity with a three-way crossover of six Knowles drivers per earpiece, including two woofers and two mid-range BAs. It is also the first IEM designed in Europe to use two Knowles Supertweeters. 
 
Featuring a patented coil design with reduced inductance, the Knowles Supertweeter uses a specially constructed high-stiffness, low-mass reed to deliver unprecedented output and ultra-high treble frequency without requiring an amplifier or transformer. The Supertweeters enable EM96 to achieve a high-frequency response extending up to 25kHz.
 
“EarSonics sought to achieve world-class, high-res sound with the EM96,” says EarSonics CEO Franck Lopez. “Whether in the studio or playing live, being able to hear every note of a song is paramount for musicians and sound engineers. The Knowles BAs help us ensure true-to-life audio on par with professional-grade studio monitors.”

The unique driver architecture works with EarSonics Truwave and Ω-Corrector technology to achieve a wide stereo image, an exceptional air feeling, and a consistent frequency response suitable for a range of listening conditions. “EarSonics uses Knowles BAs to create a distinct sound signature across its line of IEMS,” explains Jon Kiachian, President of MedTech and Specialty Audio at Knowles Corporation. “Adding two of our Supertweeters to the EM96 will create a new benchmark for world-class frequency extension and sound clarity.”

 

The EM96 is now available in Europe via the EarSonics website.
