Audio-Technica has introduced the ATH-AWX7000, a new pair of wooden over-ear headphones, according to a report from سودان اندبندنت published on Wednesday, 28 October 2026. The model is made from Kiso cypress wood and carries an Echizen lacquer coating, the outlet reports.
The announcement places the headphones in Audio-Technica's line of wooden-cup designs, though the reporting available does not specify pricing, release dates or technical specifications. According to سودان اندبندنت, the ATH-AWX7000 is presented as a leading model within the company's wooden headphone range.
The two materials named in the report are traditional Japanese crafts. Kiso cypress refers to timber associated with the Kiso region, while Echizen lacquer is a coating technique tied to the Echizen area. The source summary does not detail how either material affects the headphones' acoustics or construction.
Audio-Technica has not been quoted directly in the available material, and no launch markets or availability windows have been confirmed. Readers should treat the details above as reported by سودان اندبندنت rather than as a full product specification.
What to watch next: official confirmation from Audio-Technica on pricing, availability and the acoustic properties of the wooden housing.
