We may not have heard much about Audio Chi, but that doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be given a chance to impress the audiophile in us. With a vision to revolutionize the world of personal audio, keeping much-required style and substance in consideration, Audio Chi has announced the W-Series range of headphones.
Taking issues related to headphones onto itself, the manufacturer has tried to make things finer in case of tangled cables and faulty connections — something we’ve been awkwardly accustomed to with other high-end headphones. For this, Audio Chi is giving us detachable, interchangeable, woven cables that are easy to maintain and unlike other headphone cables, don’t tangle.
In order to make the reproduced sound all flawless, clear and distortion-free, the W-series headphones have been included with the company’s own Structural Acoustics supported with titanium-coated 40mm Mylar drivers. Available in eight different designs for £69.95 (approx. $116), the headphones come with a 2.5mm adapter, thus being compatible with almost all mobile devices.

Audio Chi provides a unique opportunity to express individual personality through high quality, style motivated designs. With These headphones you really can accessorise with sound.
The W-Series utilises Audio Chi’s Structural Acoustics™ Technology which boasts one of the headphone world’s most exclusive sound units, the Titanium-Mylar Driver. This is a sure fire way of combining flawless sound, creative design and comfort.
Audio Chi’s Head of Research and Development, Lewis Heath spoke about the importance of a high quality audio experience, “Sound this good, has never been available in headphones this small. We have worked tirelessly to reproduce professional studio sound quality without compromising on comfort and design. I think the first collection represents the Audio Chi personality perfectly; modern, stylish and independent.”
