XIO is an in-ear monitor sculpted for sound. A collaboration between Astell&Kern and 64 Audio, the XIO is the culmination of their shared philosophy on design and sound. Engineered for Precision XIO is meticulously engineered both inside and out. Its advanced hybrid system, featuring ten high-performance drivers, is finely tuned with a 4-way passive crossover to ensure every frequency is in perfect harmony. This precise tuning delivers a realistic sense of depth and a rich, spacious soundstage. Precision-milled 904L Stainless Steel Shell The exterior of XIO goes beyond that of a typical IEM, standing out as an “audio art piece” that satisfies both visual and tactile senses. Its robust structure is crafted by precisely machining 904L stainless steel—a material harder and more challenging to work with than standard stainless steel—and is then finished with a luxurious black DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coating for an exceptional premium texture. The faceplate exhibits Astell&Kern’s design heritage, projecting a three-dimensional and elegant presence through deep shading and delicate reflections. Silver Plated UP-OCC Copper Litz Cable This dedicated cable, specially crafted for XIO, is designed to achieve perfect aesthetic harmony with the earbuds. The four-core cross-braided cable is made from silver-plated, single-crystal copper (UP-OCC), offering outstanding noise shielding and transparent signal transmission. With a low impedance of just 0.29Ω, it maximizes electrical efficiency. Handcrafted IEM Made in the USA 64 Audio uses carefully selected components sourced from trusted partners around the world. Every step of design, assembly, and quality control is meticulously carried out by skilled engineers in the United States.
