Warwick Acoustics Receives Editor's Choice Awards
The Sonoma & Aperio Lauded by The Absolute Sound
The Absolute Sound just announced that the Sonoma M1 and the Aperio Headphone Systems have been awarded the Editor's Choice Awards for 2020. Both headphone systems are extremely popular and represent some of the best sounding systems in high-fidelity.
Warwick Acoustics APERIO Headphone System
To Uncover, Open, Reveal: The model name for Warwick Acoustics’ flagship, reference headphone system is a literal match for our design goal: to reproduce and reveal all recorded audio content definitively, without alteration. The APERIO is designed for the demanding professional audio market, as a reference studio monitor headphone system for High-Resolution Audio production, mastering, mixing and recording applications. Moreover, the APERIO is designed to be equally capable in ultra-high-end home consumer applications.
The reference headphone system strives to deliver the highest level of audio performance achievable, by means of our proprietary planar electrostatic technology. The APERIO utilizes a highly-refined, evolutionary advancement of technology originally developed by Warwick Acoustics for it’s ground-breaking and multi-award-winning Sonoma Model One Headphone System.
Warwick Acoustics Sonoma Model One (M1) Headphone System
Long before the appellation of Hi-Res Audio even existed, a professional recording system called Sonoma was raising the bar for audio quality in ways that would define the entire category. Today, with literally thousands of hi-res recordings to its credit, Sonoma workstations are still busy capturing projects for the most discriminating artists around the world.
Now there is a brand new Sonoma, only this one is not for recording but for playback. Introducing the Sonoma Model One Headphone System: the world's first headphone system designed from the ground up to be optimized for hi-res audio playback. And it's not just the name that's special; these headphones are built around a totally new and revolutionary electrostatic transducer, which, true to the Sonoma heritage, promises to raise the bar for music listening all over again.
If you have any questions about the Warwick Acoustics Aperio or Sonoma headphone systems, please leave a comment below! Happy Listening!
