One driver, perfected for subtle and detailed sound
The newly developed Unipolar Micro Planar Magnetic Driver featured in LUNA, named Katabiki(片響), was developed in cooperation with MADOO.

Inspired by dynamic drivers, this driver adopts a unique unipolar magnetic circuit and is designed with a strong focus on resonance characteristics. The diaphragm housing is precisely CNC-machined from aluminum, ensuring high rigidity of the driver body. It utilizes an ultra-thin, lightweight film with a printed aluminum pattern, dramatically reducing the diaphragm’s weight. The magnetic circuit uses a powerful single magnet and a dual ring-shaped yoke to achieve excellent magnetic flux control. These elements allow Katabiki (片響) to deliver outstanding response speed, exceptional resolution, and natural resonance characteristics, faithfully reproducing even the most delicate details of music.

Hi-Fi Grade Silver-Coated OCC and Copper OCC By Eletech Cables
To maximize the driver’s performance, the Silver-Coated OCC and Copper OCC Cable is meticulously engineered using a blend of high-purity silver plating and copper. This precise combination allows for highly detailed and accurate sound reproduction. Every connector is finished with aluminum, adding a touch of refinement and premium quality to the overall design.

Made in Japan
LUNA is expertly crafted by seasoned artisans with deep-rooted expertise in in-ear monitor design. Each component is assembled with meticulous care in Japan, following a highly controlled process that combines artisanal skill with advanced technology. The result is a product that reflects uncompromising quality and precision engineering at its finest.

LUNA is a product where design and performance perfectly harmonize.
It immerses you in deep sound, providing an experience where rhythmic quality and precision meet a rich and natural timbre. Offering the best sound quality across all genres, LUNA delivers a unique listening experience.

DESIGN
LUNA delivers both sophistication and technical precision through its meticulously refined curves and metallic texture. The elegant exterior is not only crafted for lasting comfort, but also precisely engineered to optimize acoustic flow. The titanium housing, paired with a smooth surface finish, enhances both durability and acoustic performance—while capturing the distinct identity of AK LUNA.Inspired by the soft curves of the moon, LUNA’s shape provides a calm and stable listening experience. This sound philosophy ensures that LUNA ultimately pursues excellence in both sound precision and wearing comfort.

The PD10 is a high-end digital audio player designed as a bold step beyond Astell&Kern’s existing lineup, redefining the company’s volume control and aesthetic language in favor of a “breaking away from the normal” approach. It employs a quad-DAC configuration using AKM’s latest AK4498EX chips within a “HEXA” circuit topology that fully separates digital and analog signal paths for ultra-clean sound reproduction. To make life easier for users, it supports Smart Gain automatic amplifier matching, which senses your headphones’ impedance and switches between normal and high gain modes without manual adjustment. The bundled cradle lets the PD10 double as a home-audio component—offering charging, digital input, and XLR outputs for integration with a hi-fi setup. Rounding out its feature set are support for AirPlay, a high-capacity 5,770 mAh battery rated at about 15 hours playback, and a large 6-inch full-HD display for comfortable control and navigation.

Convenient Charging & Expansion
Placing your DAP on the cradle instantly begins charging. When listening to music, it provides a stable power supply, allowing you to stay immersed for hours without worrying about battery life.
By connecting the DAP to speakers or amplifiers via the XLR output, you can enjoy full high-resolution sound directly through your home audio system.
The Neutrik XLR connectors used in the cradle are built to withstand thousands of plug-ins and removals, ensuring exceptional durability. Once plugged in, the connector locks automatically, delivering a more stable and reliable connection.

From Portable to Home Audio
With the AK Cradle, you can easily expand your experience at home, enjoying high-resolution sound in a more versatile and convenient way. The XLR output can be controlled through the connected DAP’s volume or set to a fixed level via Line Out settings, depending on your preference.

With an ergonomic design to comfortably fit most listeners, the Arya incorporates such HIFIMAN features such as the patented “window shade” system that reduces reflections to widen the soundstage. A super-thin diaphragm guarantees faster response and the bare minimum of distortion.

As with all new HIFIMAN products, the Arya features 3.5mm headphone connectors that are angled at 10°, thereby lessening the pressure points associated with straight-angled connectors. These pressure points sometimes stress the connection, but the new design ensures a solid, reliable, and long-lasting link between the headphone and the cable.

Nanometer Thickness Diaphragm
A breakthrough core technology developed by HIFIMAN, it's the first of its kind in headphone applications. Working with this advanced material is extremely challenging, but the successful incorporation of this film as Arya's planar driver is the cornerstone of its remarkable sound.

Advanced Asymmetrical Magnetic Circuit
Years of research into planar driver optimizations led HIFIMAN to utilize an asymmetrical design with smaller magnets on the side facing the ear. This reduced interference in sound wave transmissions from the diaphragm.

Metal and High-Grade Plastic Construction
HIFIMAN designed the Arya's high-quality metal headband with extra strength and a special high-grade plastic for lightweight comfort and rugged durability.

Bold, Black Aesthetic
With its class HE1000-style shape and striking good looks of its all-black exterior, the Arya is a statement of both aesthetics and sonic excellence.

Check Audio Information in Real Time with LED Light
The LED indicator on the front of the AK Cradle intuitively displays information about the track currently being played, just like the player itself. Softly glowing even in dark spaces, the LED provides both visual convenience and a refined, ambient atmosphere.

DESIGN Design Concept: Circle
The design of the AK Cradle is inspired by the circle, the most complete geometric form. As the shape that occupies the largest area relative to its size, the circle provides stable support for players of various dimensions while symbolizing the expansion from portable audio to home audio.

The interplay of circles and straight lines creates a sculptural form resembling a cylinder cut on a diagonal, ensuring both stable placement of the device and a comfortable viewing angle. The front-facing “A” logo not only represents Astell&Kern’s identity but also visually reflects audio information.

Crafted from extruded aluminum, the cradle is designed with a 50-degree tilt for comfortable operation on a desk or table. Its sliding port system enhances compatibility with different DAP sizes and models. Blending seamlessly with the device, the AK Cradle becomes an object that naturally integrates into your space—serving as both a design element and a true “Control Tower” for your home audio system.
