The Next Generation of Layla

The first Layla launched as a custom earphone in 2014 and instantly became known as the audiophile "holy grail." Since then, there have been two limited-edition releases of universal fit Layla, "Carbon Fiber Edition," and "Full Metal Jacket." Each generation stunned the market as industry's first full Carbon Fiber earphone and then the first full Titanium earphone available. The newest and third generation is the most exciting yet: Layla AION.

Machined Carbon Fiber Shell

Each Layla AION begins as a carbon fiber block formed by compressing hundreds of layers of resin-infused carbon fiber fabric. After undergoing an initial machining process, and then a secondary hand shaping process, Layla AION is precision tuned using state-of-the-art equipment and assembled by hand.
A striking faceplate design of red and black Pearloid with oversized chrome logos makes Layla AION one of the most visually appealing universal fit earphones yet.

Silver-Plated OFC Litz Wire Cable with 7-pin Connector

Astell&Kern's strongest, lightest, most durable cable yet. High purity OFC 4N Silver-plated cable with German-made, military-grade, iridium connector, designed to create a tight grip at connection, while easing insertion and removal.
A built-in O-ring keeps the connection between the cable and earpiece sweat proof. This robust cable will not oxidize and features upgraded memory wire around the ear.

Handcrafted Earphones Made in the USA

Layla AION universal fit earphones are manufactured in Orlando, Florida by the same talented engineers and technicians responsible for producing Jerry Harvey Audio's line of custom earphones, seen in thousands of ears and on professional stages around the world.
