Congratulations to AKG’s premium K3003 earbuds on their selection as “Best of the Best 2012” in Personal Technology by the leading lifestyle magazine Robb Report.   The 24th annual award presentation is considered a connoisseur's guide to the finest new electronics, autos, watches, resorts, restaurants, yachts, wines and more.   Sharing the limelight among this year’s award winners are products from other premium brands such as Bentley automobiles, Benetti Seanna yachts, Louis Vuitton watches, Gucci fashion bags, and Cartier Panther jewelry.

The new AKG earbuds are “unquestionably the finest universally fitting in-ear headphones ever created,” said Robb Report’s editors.  “AKG pulled out all the stops to produce the K3003s, and spent four years on research and development before finally bringing these small wonders to market.” 

The new buds, which retail for $1,300, easily compete with professional in-ear monitors (IEMs) -- bulky devices that fill the entire ear cavity with multiple drivers and coloration-causing crossover switches. The relatively tiny buds of the AKG K3003s offer the high-quality audio reproduction of IEMs without sacrificing comfort and convenience.

The groundbreaking development behind the K3003s -- they weigh less than half an ounce (13 grams) without the cable -- is a patent-pending three-way hybrid-driver system, which places a single dynamic bass driver behind dual balanced armatures that power the mids and highs. This arrangement, in addition to providing naturally aligned frequency phases, also eliminates the need for additional crossovers between each of the drivers. The results are crystal clear responses across the earphones’ huge frequency range of 10 Hz to 30 kHz. The lows hit hard and clean, the mids are smooth as butter, and the highs deliver unbelievable detail that provides nuances never before heard from earbuds.

AKG also developed three separate user-applied filters for the K3003s -- one for reference-quality audio, one to boost bass response, and one for treble. These game-changing earbuds are also available with an Apple iOS–friendly remote control and microphone incorporated into the tangle-resistant cable, to convert users’ hand-held devices into audiophile-grade mobile music players.
