Onkyo teamed up with Siemens to introduce custom 3D printed in-ear headphones

Recently, Japanese consumer electronics manufacturer Onkyo has launched a series of customized 3D printed in-ear headphones.

Professional musicians around the world use in-ear headphones primarily to allow them to hear the sounds they perform while performing on stage, while protecting their eardrums and hearing from the noisy speaker system on the stage. For professionals, this small headset is crucial. To this end, Onkyo teamed up with Siemens Hearing Aids to design and develop a range of top-of-the-line custom in-ear headphones called IE-C1/C2/C3. Siemens hearing aids have a history of more than 100 years in the manufacture of hearing aids.

The IE-C1/C2/C3 series is available in 3 different models, each with different sound insulation properties and a total of 12 available housing colors. According to Onkyo, each of the headphones in the series is equipped with Balanced Armature (BA) drives that are specifically suspended in a floating silicone pad to limit vibration and keep in the ear. The sound is as clear as possible. 3D printing makes this series of headphones fit the wearer's ear structure and achieve optimal performance.

According to Anqiao, the customization process of the headset is relatively simple, mainly to customize a model for the wearer's ear. Specifically, the customer first selects the headset type and color at the store, and then the store assigns a Hearing Center to the customer to create an ear model for them. After the ear model is completed, it will be sent directly to Onkyo's factory in Japan. The factory will produce the headset with 3D printing technology and will deliver the finished product to the customer within 20 days. If the headset has quality problems when it is received, Onkyo guarantees that the customer can return the product within 30 days, and then they will redo the customer for free.

Let's take a look at the features of the IE-C1/C2/C3 series headphones. Each model in this series has a different number of BA drives. The suspensibility of the BA drive provides the user with a high degree of sound insulation and a mid-high frequency sound playback. In addition, the level of sound insulation can be adjusted for different purposes. For example, a professional musician may require the earphone to fit the ear most closely for the best sound insulation effect. Standard users may reduce the requirement for sound insulation for comfort, while the sports user can hear it. External sounds may be expected to keep the headphones from sticking too tightly to the ears.

Additional features include an antimicrobial coating that makes the headset easier to maintain, a detachable MMCX connector, a carrying case, and a cleaning cloth. The retail price of this series of headphones is expected to be between $600 and $900, and the price of the different models is different (IE-C1 4780, IE-C2 5880, IE-C3 6980).
