VIENNA, Austria – In an
introduction that marries creative inspiration from the world’s leading DJ with
advanced audio and technical design from the world’s preeminent headphone
manufacturer, HARMAN today announces the “AKG by TIËSTO” range of headphones
that feature tuning and styling directed by legendary DJ and producer TIËSTO. Comprising three
high-performance professional-grade headphones, the TIËSTO Series will appeal to a broad range of end users,
from studio engineers, to artists, fans and TIËSTO himself - whether in the studio, at a show or on the go.
The AKG by TIËSTO headphones are
being announced globally during the PLASA show in London, UK.
With more than 350 million total views on YouTube, 12.8 million+ fans on
Facebook and over 1.3 million followers on Twitter, TIËSTO is one of the most influential DJs in the world. His
achievements have ranged from playing at the opening of the 2004 Olympics to an
audience of billions, to Grammy® Award nominations and the coveted
title of ‘Greatest DJ Of All Time’, bestowed on him by Mixmag. As well as running his own label, Musical
Freedom, TIËSTO is constantly travelling around the globe, playing over 250
shows a year to millions of fans.
“AKG is rooted in the
passion for music at the same time as having a unique eye for design and
style,” TIËSTO says. “Together we’ve created a line of headphones that are
perfect for those who want the best quality of sound, but don’t wish to
compromise on style, whether you’re looking to mix in the studio, perform live
or even listen when you’re on the move.”
The line of three
headphones, K67
TIËSTO (High-Performance), K167 TIËSTO (Professional) and K267 TIËSTO (Reference) all provide
users with a sound fitting for the global phenom, TIËSTO himself.
K67 TIËSTO’s on-ear design is
ideal for home recording, project studios, live sound and rehearsal applications,
offering a high noise attenuation. The
compact design delivers sound quality wherever necessary, even outdoors.
K167 TIËSTO is an over-ear,
closed-back design for high comfort and maximum noise rejection. Suitable for multiple applications, from the
stage to the studio, DJs and music enthusiasts will enjoy the stunning design
and impressive sound quality, even in loud environments. Its 40mm driver allows
for higher sound pressure levels, while its roadworthy design provides maximum
reliability.
K267 TIËSTO offers an over-ear,
closed-back design, with an oversized low resonance driver, providing a higher
SPL, while still maintaining a matched low frequency bass response. Its user-adjustable bass boost keeps sound
neutral or maximizes deeper sub-bass frequencies when prompted. With
high-quality materials and superior workmanship, K267’s sound quality raises
the bar for the professional DJ with the best performance without
compromise. K267’s Dual Plug-In feature
allows the user to attach the cable to either side for maximum comfort. In addition, each set boasts 3D-Axis folding
mechanisms for optimum fitting and flat storage
Commenting on the announcement Thomas Stubics, product marketing
manager, AKG noted, “The AKG by TIËSTO headphones
will convey an entirely new level of performance to the DJ profession. Every aspect of the TIËSTO headphones encompasses the style, emotion and heart TIËSTO provides his audiences, live or on a record. Working with TIËSTO allows AKG to extend its reputation of quality and reliability directly
to the DJ and producer himself, ensuring shows and albums are at peak
performance.”
