ATOMIC FLOYD | Unique sound delivered through a robust red cable


ATOMIC FLOYD


Unique Sound Carried by Red, Robust Cables


Born in the UK in 2008, ATOMIC FLOYD is an earphone brand that quickly captivated audio enthusiasts worldwide, not only for its high sound quality but also for its distinctive style, featuring engine-red fiber cables and metal housings. Now, a new product has been released, the first in approximately two years.

The Highly Anticipated New Product from a Rapidly Rising Earphone Brand




Utilizing premium materials such as marine-grade steel, stainless steel, and Kevlar® fiber, ATOMIC FLOYD has garnered attention from the fashion industry, appearing not only in specialist audio stores and Apple Stores but also at the Parisian select shop Colette. The brand has been recognized for its appeal beyond just the audiophile community.







The new product being launched is the "PowerJax +Remote," ATOMIC FLOYD's fifth offering.
While previous models were priced around ¥20,000 to ¥30,000, this model is more accessible at ¥14,800. Nevertheless, it delivers the brand's signature high-fidelity sound, offering excellent cost performance.




The remarkably vivid sound is produced by 13.5mm dynamic drivers employing dual metal voice coils made of copper and aluminum. Copper achieves powerful bass, while aluminum, through precisely tuned sound ports, transmits sound with clarity. This is delivered directly to the ear via large-diameter (5mm) nozzles.

Furthermore, this high sound quality is
maximized by 2-way noise isolation that prevents sound leakage while blocking external noise, and by silicone ear tips made of two different materials that fit the ear canal's shape to further seal out noise.



The materials include a high-performance Kevlar® fiber audio cable for noise-free transmission, a wear-resistant TPU earphone cable, and a stainless steel 24K gold-plated plug. These durable, premium-grade materials, born from advanced technology, further solidify its exceptional sound quality.








The stainless steel in-line remote with microphone is compatible with both Apple and Android devices. It allows for volume control and track playback, as well as seamless switching between music and calls (Note: Android devices support play/pause functionality).




The "PowerJax +Remote" is available at major electronics retailers and online shops nationwide, as well as through Focal Point (focal.co.jp/atomicfloyd).
