64 Audio has announced new additions to its recently launched Aspire Series of Universal In-Ear Monitor (UIEM) are now available. Aspire 1 is 64 Audio’s first pro single-driver IEM, whereas 2, 3, and 4 are hybrid designs using both dynamic and balanced armature drivers.
“Specifically designed for musicians and live music professionals, the three new Aspire models (1, 2, and 3) have been designed with the same sonic characteristics and technology worn by the world’s greatest performers using 64 Audio custom in-ear monitors,” explained Vitaliy Belonozhko, 64 Audio founder and chief executive officer. “The Aspire Series separate themselves from any other UIEMs in its class, making this powerful sound signature a perfect blend of accuracy and musicality.”
Models one, two, and three have MSRPs of $349.99, $499.99, and $649.99 respectively, with the recently launched Aspire 4 model reduced to $799.99. The form factor for Aspire 1 (single driver), Aspire 2 (dual driver), Aspire 3 (three driver), and Aspire 4 (four-driver) have been designed and engineered by the same innovative team responsible for developing the industry standard audio gear that 64 Audio is known for.
Aspire 1 and 2 include the Helmholtz Resonator, a unique acoustic structure that eliminates resonance by precisely targeting frequencies for optimum tuning. Aspire 3 and 4 include a high-frequency Waveguide, a custom designed acoustic structure integrated onto the high-frequency balanced armature driver.
APEX Core, 64 Audio’s patented technology, is seamlessly integrated into the body of Aspire 1, 2, 3, and 4 earphones. The pressure relieving channel provides controlled leak via acoustic filters as opposed to pneumatically interactive foam in 64 Audio’s traditional apex implementation. Aspire users can significantly reduce ear fatigue while maintaining roughly -20db of noise isolation.
Waveguide increases the driver’s efficiency by directing and focusing its energy for a clear sound. While hard to compete with the response of 64 Audio’s patented tia high-driver, this configuration may be the closest thing to it on the market.
Additional specifications and accessories include a moulded ABS Shell + Stainless Steel Nozzle; a48in. Black IPX Cable; 64 Audio Branded Zipper Case; Foam & Silicone Ear Tips; Cleaning Tool; and a 1/4in. Adaptor.
“Whether you’re just getting into monitoring with in-ears, not ready for customs, need a backup set, or simply prefer generic fitting products, Aspire offers best-in-class sound and ergonomics, now with four models to choose from,” Belonozhko concluded.
Since 2010, 64 Audio has crafted thousands of custom in-ear monitors for some of the world’s greatest musical talent. Working with these discerning and critical entertainers has shaped 64 Audio’s products and technological development, culminating in the company’s most accessible UIEM to date. Sharing that same legendary DNA and patented technology, Aspire 4 is the ultimate UIEM for anyone who needs to HEAR LIKE A PRO.
The company was founded in 2010 by Vitaliy Belonozhko, a sound engineer who has been working with musicians and production companies for nearly two decades. He discovered the advantages of IEMs over traditional floor “wedges” and recognised that a better solution to in-ear monitoring was needed. 64 Audio supplies products worldwide to musicians, singers, and engineers in the world, as well as discerning audiophiles who demand nothing but the best sound reproduction from their systems.
