AAW Kingfisher

Three tiers. One microphone.

Kingfisher is AAW’s tri-hybrid for gaming: the same three drivers as ACH, a dynamic woofer, a NOVA open-vented armature and AAW’s ceramic super tweeter, on a cable with a detachable boom microphone.

It follows the acclaimed Canary in its three-tier design, with a ceramic tweeter where Canary has an electrostatic one.

3 Drivers: 10 mm dynamic, NOVA and a ceramic super tweeter
11 mm Condenser microphone capsule

Microphone

A Boom Worth Recording With

Kingfisher’s cable carries a boom microphone on a detachable MMCX joint, with a sensitive 11 mm condenser capsule: a clear voice in every call, and good enough for recording and mixing.

Unclip the boom and it is an in-ear monitor for music like any other.

Tweeter

Seven Layers of Ceramic

The treble comes from AAW’s own ceramic super tweeter: a piezoelectric membrane built up in seven layers, the first of its kind. It is laser-welded directly onto the dynamic woofer’s housing, so the two form a single coaxial unit, rigid and free of stray vibration.

Beside it, AAW’s NOVA open-vented armature sits deep in the stainless steel nozzle, close to your eardrum, which removes the pressure loss and tube resonance of a conventional tubed armature.

Faceplates

A Face You Can Change

The faceplates are held by hex screws and can be swapped by hand. Other faceplate designs are available, and so are faceplates made to your own design.

Light, Flexible, Out of Mind

The cable is our Ethos gaming cable: multi-stranded UPOCC copper with silver plating, quad-braided, ultra-flexible and light, so it stays out of mind when the focus is on the game. It plugs into detachable 0.78 mm 2-pin sockets.

Great IEM

The IEM is of high quality and excellent for gaming. However, the cable is a bit short and if you are using an amp, you would need a silencer. Other than these points, I am very happy with my purchase.

Wow!

These things are amazing! I've been hearing things my beats and other headphones haven't picked up lol. The mic is incredible, and it pops off to fit in the little case.

5 stars

it's great to get this quality product at this price.

Great sound quality and a high quality microphone

The sound quality of these IEM’s is awesome and the sound stage is very good. Positional audio in games is accurate and the microphone quality is excellent.

what is the length of the detachable boom mic?

Null Audio

The Kingfisher has been discontinued.

I'm not getting any audio via the microphone. Do I need a different connection in order to have the microphone function?

Null Audio

Kingfisher cable is compatible to 3.5mm on laptop/phone. For desktop, mic and audio are separated, no audio from mic probe if plugged in audio port.

feel free to email us (support@null-audio.com) for warranty issues.

Do you sell the cable separate? all i need is the cable with the microphone.... I already have 2 pairs of your iems.

Null Audio

Would there be any video to show how does the mic sound?

Null Audio

The Kingfisher has been discontinued. For a cable with a mic, choose Ethos, Arete, Epsilon or Lune with the iOS/Android microphone (+USD 20).

Can the cable for the Kingfisher be bought separately?

Questions

Good to know

What is the driver configuration?

Three drivers in three tiers: a 10 mm dynamic woofer for the bass, a NOVA open-vented armature in the nozzle for the mids and highs, and AAW’s 7-layer ceramic super tweeter, laser-welded onto the woofer’s housing as one coaxial unit. A 3-way passive crossover joins them.

What is a ceramic super tweeter?

A piezoelectric tweeter: a thin ceramic membrane, here in seven layers, that flexes when the signal is applied to it. AAW uses it in ACH and Kingfisher as a more affordable relative of the electrostatic tweeter in Canary.

Can I use Kingfisher without the microphone?

Yes. The boom attaches to the cable with an MMCX joint and comes off, leaving an in-ear monitor for music.

How is Kingfisher different from ACH?

The cable. The drivers, crossover and specifications are the same. Kingfisher comes with a gaming cable that carries a detachable boom microphone; ACH comes with our Ethos cable and travel adapters.

Which cable fits Kingfisher?

Kingfisher has 0.78 mm 2-pin sockets. Choose Standard 2-pin (0.78 mm) on any of our cables; see the AAW cable guide.

What warranty and returns apply?

Kingfisher has a 1-year warranty on the monitors and the cable. Unused universal IEMs in their original packaging can be returned within 14 days of confirmed delivery, with a 30% restocking fee. See shipping and returns.

Do you ship worldwide?

Yes. Most countries get free shipping by EPAC, and FedEx Priority is free on orders of USD 250 or more. In Singapore you can also pick up from our studio at 76 Playfair Road.
