The Final Audio A10000 in-ear is the latest flagship from the Japanese manufacturer — even featuring a diamond diaphragm.
The highlight of the new Final Audio A10000 is its True-Diamond diaphragm. It is produced by crystallising carbon on a silicon base, after which only an extremely thin diamond membrane remains. This ultra-rigid diaphragm is designed to deliver sound waves to your ears with exceptional accuracy. A polyurethane suspension helps suppress unwanted resonances. No glue is used for this suspension — instead, it is secured using pneumatic and thermal techniques.
Also available as a Collector’s Edition
The housing of the Final Audio A10000 is made from precisely machined stainless steel. Its finish — known as ‘Côtes de Genève’ — comes from the world of watchmaking. This is not only for aesthetic appeal; the textured surface is also intended to improve acoustics compared to a completely smooth finish. Instead of messy glued joints, the earphones are largely assembled with screws, making them easier to service. For enthusiasts, there’s also a gold-coloured limited edition available, presented in a wooden box, with only 300 units worldwide.
The Final Audio A10000 retails for €2,999 in the “standard” version. The gold-coloured Collector’s Edition costs €3,299.
