Why the Aiwa Arc-1 Headphone Sounds Better

A quick discussion of how the drivers in the Arc-1 headphone contribute to better sound quality, and why these apparently tiny details add up to a big difference in your experience of music. Buy on Amazon: www.amazon.com...

I really appreciate the honest business approach of this company. I own the arc 1 and for its price it was a bargain PLUS I have the good feeling supporting people who deserve being supported.

Aiwa welcome back to life .. used to love your tape desk

[@JoshWitte]

have had this pair for years and they were working just fine up until today. wouldn't stay paired, and now they are stuck emitting a buzzing noise. I am unable to turn them off or reset them, and there is nothing in the manual to help me with this issue.

Aiwa Aiwa Aiwa... I remember back in the late 90s buying Aiwa audio equipment. Everything from home stereo systems, record players, portable CD players, and car audio. It was never really considered a "top of the line" brand but it was always reliable for me and got the job done. In the early 2000s Sony bought Aiwa. By 2008 they managed to completely shut down the brand. Fast forward to present day. Aiwa is back. It's a brand new company with an old reliable name. Their first product release, the Exos-9, is one of if not the best rated bluetooth speaker on the internet! So when I saw Aiwa was going to release a pair of Bluetooth headphones I had feelings of nostalgia and excitement. I really wanted to get a pair and try them out. There wasn't a ton of reviews out for them yet but the few I did see were glowing with positivity! I received a coupon code from Aiwa in my email for $20 off and that made my decision to buy the Arc-1 headphones a certainty. I ordered them on Amazon a couple of days ago and they arrived on my porch this afternoon! The sound... It's so good! I'm no audiophile and don't have a lot of experience with a ton of high end headphones but I can say that these blow away the Skullcandy Crusher Wireless and the AKG N60NC. I wish I had more hands so I could give these headphones 4 thumbs up!

[@brutalpanther]

Mine will be here in a day or so.Not sure anything can impress me as much as the EXOS-9,But I have high hopes.I own the plantronics backbeat pro 2 Headphones, that are a great performance headphone.Hoping the ARC-1 will make them sound low tier. I'll update in a few days and let ya know.

[@aiwa113]

Great, let us know, and of course if you have any trouble, we're here.

I ordered a pair, but I’m really bummed about them having micro-USB. Aiwa, it’s time to head into the 21st century of tech. Even the bullet wireless from plus one come with USB-C, and they are less than $80

[@aiwa113]

That's a fair point. They do charge fast, but it's not symmetrical, you can only orient them one way. We have USB C on the list of desired enhancements

[@thanzeelpatel210]

Is aiwa in earphone available in India?

[@deshaun5419]

My Aiwa arc1 headphones band broke in half poor build quality. Aiwa replaced them with arc1 NC The sound is not good as the original arc1 they had a beautiful sound signature as you see here in the commercial even Aiwa acknowledged mylar speaker don't produce good sound! but what do you know Aiwa Put that same cheap mylar speaker in the all new Aiwa arc1 NC headphones to save cost.I'm ashame of Aiwa manufacturing and quality control process your better then this. you guys rolled out a all new headphones and you guys drop the ball both times.I'm sorry awia I can't trust your product anymore its about money with you guys. Bring back Aiwa 1990 CEO. that's what we love and remember that Awia sound not this.i hope to see the real Aiwa soon.

[@RodknockRhett]

At least you got a chance to listen to the original ARC-1s. I never got to. And, I refuse to even consider the NC version of them. They're not even close to the same. I'm glad I did my research here. As I almost bought a set. I would much rather have excellent sound quality than noise canceling. Unfortunately it seems as though the new Aiwa is already losing it. They're starting to go for features over sound quality. This is sad. As I thought my childhood brand had come back from the dead. That was short lived...

[@steppinonastoop677]

do u know of any other brand of headphone that has similar sound quality to the arc 1?

[@JCXY]

It's not available in the uk...i want to try the Prodigy 1

[@danielmauerhofer4118]

Hi All, does this headphone has a wired option or just bluetooth? Cheers

[@aiwa113]

There is a wired option as well.

[@Nofarewell]

Good news, thanks! (y) Please make products that resemble to the old aiwa ;-)

[@user-vi3tb3bw5t]

Doesn't sound good as my "crinkly" hd 650s sorry aiwa looks like a coo driver tho

[@JoeBorn]

It's a fair point, there are some great headphones with mylar drivers, but in a two minute video we didn't have any opportunity for a totally complete explanation!

[@user-vi3tb3bw5t]

Unusual drivers though never seen another pair like it
