‘One of a Kind’ japanese wireless headphones

Developing the finest in high-end audio technology for over 45 years, Japanese brand Final has recently established an affordable sub-brand – ag. Inspired by the old Japanese word "arigatakimono", the brand name means ‘one of a kind’ or ‘appreciation’. By utilizing the experience and knowledge cultivated through contract development and manufacturing for major brands, the core of ag is to create exquisite products at affordable prices.

The innovative brand launched earlier this month with two ‘one of a kind’ pioneer products: the WHP01K Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones and the TWS04K True Wireless Earphones. Both are compatible with a wide range of models such as iPhone and Android, through simple and easy pairing.

Both models are classed under the K-series that aims to provide sound quality that would satisfy the needs of audiophiles for a price point accessible to all consumers. In addition to SBC and AAC, they support aptX LL™ which delivers superb sound quality with exceptional connection stability.

Ag WHP01K Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones – RRP $149.99

The AG-WHP01K is an easy to use wireless headphone equipped with a hybrid noise cancelling system, delivering high quality sound with a rich soundstage that is easily considered as the best choice among products in the same category and price range.

Boasting up to 35hrs of playback on a single full charge, the sound of the WHP01K is professionally tuned by parent brand, Final, with the unpleasant sound caused by Bluetooth being delicately treated to deliver superb clarity and a sufficient amount of bass. 

The active noise cancellation (ANC) function can be activated even when music is not playing, creating a personal quiet space on a train, airplane, or at work. Equipped with a high-quality microphone, the WHP01K can be used not only for phone calls but online conferences too.

Together with the ANC feature, one can pay full attention to the conference without being disturbed by environmental background noise. By utilizing two mics which are separately implanted outside and inside the ear-cups, the WHP01K offers a high-quality noise-cancelling feature by consistently comparing the ambient noise level and the processed driver output, then making sufficient adjustments to achieve high-quality noise cancelling.

Available in three colours (Black, Cream and Dark Grey), the headphones can be folded into a compact form making them convenient to carry, with an enclosed carrying pouch offering extra protection. The ear-cup housing rotates flexibly to fit every head perfectly and achieve seamless sealing which is essential to improve the bass performance and prevent sound leakage. The soft-textured powder coating offers a beautiful surface that is superb at dirt resistance and fingerprint resilience.

Ag TWS04K True Wireless Earphones – RRP $199.99

Featuring clear, transparent sound, super long battery life and high water resistance, the AG- TWS04K are recommended as a sub-unit for audiophiles.

The AG- TWS04K is an easy to use wireless earphone promising hi-fi sound quality that can easily be considered as the best wireless solution for true audiophiles, delivered at an entry-level price point. Combining a high-quality driver with a sophisticated internal structure, and Final's expertise in high-end audio, these earphones don’t compromise on quality for value.

The included synthetic leather charging case is equipped with a high-capacity battery which can fully charge the earphones 20 times before requiring a recharge, resulting in 180 hours of music playback. Ideal for travelling, or those with busy lives.

The TWS04K feature an IPX7 rating, meaning the earphones are waterproof when submersed in water at a depth of one metre for up to 30 minutes. This product functions excellently well even during a downpour or the most intense workout session.

Available in two colours (Black and White), the new earpiece designed for completely wireless earphones comes with 5 ear tip sizes of Final’s “TYPE E Completely Wireless Specific” specifications. The high-quality leather case provides a good non-slip texture, offering outstanding resistance to dust and fingerprints.
