From hero to AK ZERO2
Second-generation IEMs combine different driver technologies for the ultimate performance at their price point. Precision-crafted in Japan, the AK ZERO2 is a game-changing design.
Handcrafted in Japan and clad in Astell&Kern’s signature angled aluminium, the AK ZERO2 earphones combine different types of driver technology to optimise audio performance across all sound frequencies. Exceptional cross-over network management means the different designs work together in perfect harmony.

The AK ZERO2’s micro rectangular Planar Dynamic Driver has been specifically developed to deliver high frequencies, using advanced technology to optimise the planar design for in-ear use.
The IEMs also feature two pairs of Coil Parameter Dual Custom BA Drivers to reproduce both full range and mid-to-low range frequencies. This ultra-low distortion design is ideal to deliver outstanding clear vocal performance, along with perfect harmonisation across all frequencies.
The final piece of the picture is a 10mm Dynamic Driver with Piezoelectric Transducer technology. In the AK ZERO2, this design takes on both super-tweeter and bass extension duties – delivering both the extreme highs and lows of the frequency range that other earphones can struggle to resolve.
To realise this new sound through the ideal frequency response, a Crossover Network design was generated based on a thorough understanding of each driver’s parameters. Once established, each driver is carefully placed in the optimal position, enclosed in specifically designed acoustic chambers manufactured with 3D printing technology.
To further maximise the audio performance the AK ZERO1 arrives equipped with a pure silver-coated OFC cables. Exquisitely crafted with high-purity silver plating and copper, alongside aluminum plugs, this design strives to maintain transparency of the audio signal.
MMCX connectors ensure a prime-quality connection between the ear housing and cable, offering a long-lasting and stable performance. Elsewhere, the shape of the housing and the slender ear nozzles have been carefully designed and refined to not only provide a secure and comfortable fit, but to deliver the sound efficiently and accurately through your ears.
