Tunai Announces the DRUM Audiophile-grade in-ear Headphones

TUNAI Creative has once again come to the technology forefront with the development of their new product, DRUM. They are known for bringing to the world products such as FIREFLY, which is the tiniest Bluetooth music receiver that allows for easy upgrade your car and home audio systems and CLIP, the award-winning Bluetooth headphone amplifier that upgrades any wired headset into a wireless headset. With the successes of FIREFLY and CLIP, there has been a demand for TUNAI to create a compatible headphone that is small and with great sound which is how the in-ear headphone DRUM was created.

DRUM is a high-resolution bass enhanced audiophile earphone that is engineered to deliver well-rounded sound throughout the audio spectrum including clear, high-end, rich mid-range and powerful bass. It is designed to meet the latest high-quality audio standards established by Japan Audio Society (JAS). Unlike regular in-ear headphone designs using small to medium size drivers DRUM has been modified to use a larger 13mm dynamic driver for richer, more powerful bass and wider soundstage.
Additionally, it features oxygen-free copper wire which increases electrical conductivity and promotes a much more stable sound platform and an ultra-thin PET diaphragm made up of aerospace quality PET that facilitates lightning fast response times with an extended frequency range to 40,000Hz.
DRUM has the following Technical Specifications:
  • Driver Unit: 13mm dynamic
  • Diaphragm: 8um aerospace grade PET
  • Frequency Response (Hz): 10 - 40,000Hz
  • Sensitivities (dB/mW): 105 dB/mW
  • Impedence: 35Ω (1kHz)
  • Cord material: OFC, Oxygen free copper
  • Cord Type: Y type, round cord
  • Cord length: 3.3ft / 100cm
  • Plug: Four-conductor gold-plated L-shaped stereo mini jack
  • Wearing style: Inner ear
  • Color options: Shadow Black, Sterling Silver, Shine Orange, Meadow Green and Turkish Blue
To launch DRUM to the world, your support is needed. A Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign has been started and you can lend support at this page.

Impressive on paper, especially the frequency response range. I just wish they weren't in-ear, I don't like these...

yeah I tend to call these "earbuds" which I also dont really like.
I like the more oldschool earphones though, those that hang in your ear but dont have that ermm nob part.

Yeah, I prefer if headphones are stuck inside the outer ear part and not in the ear canal. I hate that. Not to mention they get nasty fast no matter how tidy your ears are...

I'm currently using AKG ones, really good sound, but I see AKG doesn't even make normal ones anymore. What the hell. This is really crappy when you're forced to use something because they give you no choice at all.

"News". Why is this "press release" on TPU? Seems to be for a very different audience.

You should try out VE Monks +, old school style audiophile grade.

Audiophile. Probably one of the prime words used by audio company marketing departments - IMO.

Frequently used to market snake oil.

Up to 40 kHz range? I won't be able to hear it, but I like to share my headphones with my dog, so that's a welcome feature for sure.
