*LIMITED QUANTITY B-STOCK* The same Empire Ears units you know and love, but with insignificant - often imperceptible to the naked eye - cosmetic imperfections. We have extremely high standards for ourselves and our product, inspecting everything under microscopes, and these are just the units that made it to the final stage of quality control before something was discovered, micro-bubbles in the lacquer for example. Sonically, these units are pristine, having aced all of our audio quality checks. They also come with the full suite of support that Empire offers. Same sound, same warranty - you've got nothing to lose. All B-Stock sales are final. Empire Ears is proud to present the World's First Quad Electrostatic IEM, The Wraith. The Wraith is Carnegie Hall built for one; a vast cathedral erected in the name of crystalline, pure sound. Performances blossom in the enormous sound stage, so intimate you can brush them with your fingertips, yet so grand as to fill every corner, revealing and polishing the finest nuances. Every element of the music is arrayed before you, an orchestra lit in spotlights. No detail is overlooked, but instead is nurtured, given the space to grow and shine. You will truly hear music like never before. World leading treble extension dances atop rich and precise mids, all of which is grounded by the earthy, tight low end. The utterly unbelievable level of detail achieved by The Wraith is only possible through the freshly pioneered EIVEC - Empire Intelligent Variable Electrostatic Control - technology. In The Wraith, EIVEC utilizes two transformers to bring the Quadruple Electrostatic Drivers into order, dividing the duties of the EST drivers, and blending them seamlessly with the seven balanced armature drivers which fill out the rest of the robust sound profile. The results are astounding, crafting a world around you with a clarity, texture, and detail that redefine what's possible. The Wraith comes standard with our new and exclusive "Amethyst Infused Carbon Fiber" faceplate and an Effect Audio Cleopatra bespoke cable. *LIMITED QUANTITY IN STOCK* *In stock orders usually process within 24 hours if order is placed before 12 pm (noon) EST. If not in stock, units usually ship within 3 weeks. [[SECTION]] JUMP TO: Technical Specifications | EIVEC | synX Crossover Technology | Balanced Armature Drivers | A.R.C. Technology [[SECTION]] What Reviewers Are Saying “It features a one-of-a-kind clean signature where every little note, no matter how loud or silent, gets produced effortlessly and clear. I can hear the finest beeps with Wraith. People who adored Zeus will be pleasantly taken care of with Wraith too in my opinion. A new introduction in terms of technology is EIVEC – Empire Intelligent Variable Electrostatic Control. It’s said to seamlessly harmonize the quadruple e-stat drivers in there. Whatever it is that EIVEC is doing exactly, it’s doing a great job. Wraith does feature more body and weight in the low end, compared to Zeus, but hasn’t forgotten about the emotions, details, resolution and sheer accuracy of the midrange. Wraith possesses a sound that is filled with information and richness. It’s a monitor that always is in control, an IEM that handles and organizes big orchestras like it’s just one person with a guitar playing. Wraith is the ultimate conductor.” - Linus from Headfonia.com [[SECTION]] Technical Specifications 4 Electrostatic Drivers 7 Proprietary Empire Balanced Armature Drivers 2 Low, 3 Mid, 2 High, 4 Super-High EIVEC - Empire Intelligent Variable Electrostatic Control 5-Way synX Crossover Network A.R.C.

For all their incredible range and resolution, electrostatic drivers - ESTs - are notoriously hard to control, often overpowering other drivers. EIVEC is our solution to that, and the degree of control provided by EIVEC is so precise that, in the case of Wraith, each EST driver operates independently, performing disparate tasks within the sound stage. The result is a seamless and rich sound signature layered in detail and texture the likes of which you've never heard before. ESTs are capable of stable production of the entire frequency range from 4kHz - 100kHz. Naturally, humans can't hear much above 20kHz but a driver capable of reliably producing the extreme high frequencies possesses an agility requisite for levels of detail unmatched by any other driver technology. [[SECTION]] synX Crossover Technology How do crossovers work? Think of a crossover network as an audio traffic officer, directing highs to your tweeters, midrange to your speakers, and bass to your subwoofers. This is essentially what a crossover does; it takes an input signal and splits it into separate audio bands. Could you imagine having numerous speakers with just a few dedicated audio bands? It would cause a massive audio pile up, forcing the wrong speakers to reproduce the wrong frequencies constantly. We avoid all of this by utilizing specially designed drivers for designated frequency ranges and further maximizing their potential with our latest crossover technology, synX. Introducing synX synX is a supercharged crossover design that designates more individual audio bands per driver than any other crossover technology currently in existence. By creating an ultra-wide, multi-channel highway our engineers can manipulate specific parts of the frequency range in order to precision craft the target response and eliminate any signs of phase incoherence between the drivers. Alternatively, mix engineers and audiophiles will have full control of the drivers when equalizing through a mixing console or digital audio player. synX is the industry’s most advanced IEM crossover technology with each model featuring its own uniquely designed synX network. synX advantages synX powered in-ear monitors have remarkably high stereo separation and smooth phase response, leading to more dynamic realistic imaging and staging for both live and studio use. synX features a myriad of other advantages including: Ultra-Wide Frequency Bandwidth: The Wraith produces a super-wide frequency range, offering listeners unparallel sound quality and details that bests even the most high-end headphones on the market. Best Signal-to-Noise: In order to ensure that all of the industry-leading sound quality is heard in your ears we’ve worked to create a unique combination of handpicked resistors, electrolytic capacitors, and filters in order to ensure the cleanest signal path possible while offering an exceptionally low noise floor. Low Distortion: Extremely low distortion means that every nuance in your mix will be reproduced faithfully without audible artifacts. Maximum Signal Transfer: Every driver and crossover is individually wired and insulated with 7-strand, UPOCC Litz wires to eliminate acoustic feedback and further soldered with highly conductive, ultra pure silver and gold Mundorf Supreme for maximum signal transfer. [[SECTION]] Proprietary Drivers The Wraith utilizes a number proprietary balanced armature drivers by Knowles and Sonion, each one purpose built for a specific target response. Our drivers feature specialized reeds and low-mass diaphragms to reproduce incredible detailed, true-to-recording sound while remaining efficient enough to be powered by everyday devices. Furthermore each Empire driver utilizes a NASA-born ferromagnetic liquid technology, Ferrofluid, to dampen acoustics peaks and reduce vibrations in combination with our A.R.C. technology. The end result is extraordinary clarity and increased shock durability. [[SECTION]] Bespoke Handcrafted Cables Every Wraith in-ear monitor includes a bespoke, handcrafted Cleopatra cable by Effect Audio. The Cleopatra boasts a proprietary blend of 26 AWG UPOCC Ultra Pure Silver with ultra-flexible insulation for maximum signal speed transmission, performance, and ergonomics. Each cable is terminated in an ultra durable 3.5mm, 24k Oyaide gold plated right angle plug. Alternatively, for our audiophile clientele, we also offer 2.5 and 4.4 balanced terminations at no additional charge. Effect Audio’s extensive engineering and manufacturing background gives them the edge over all other cables. After extensive testing with numerous other cable manufacturers we’re proud to announce our official partnership with Effect Audio to bring you some of the finest cables in the industry and to ultimately defeat the weak link in IEMs. [[SECTION]] A.R.C. Technology Balanced Armature (BA) drivers are vastly used in the IEM industry due to their small footprint and ultra efficient designs however they suffer from resonant behaviors that may cause peaks, unwanted vibrations, and distortion. To help mitigate this our drivers utilize Ferrofluid between the magnets and armature to provide a wide range of damping values, eliminating the need for a damping screen in the port tube. Despite this a secondary peak can still occur from the other components interacting with the drivers. Driver peaks can cause fatigue, distortion, and ultimately affect the way music sounds. We sought out to create a remedy for this and after years of relentless R&D we’re proud to announce A.R.C. (Anti-Resonance Compound), a proprietary coating that virtually eliminates unwanted vibrations and resonance from within IEMs. A.R.C. effectively increases the mass of the components it’s applied to: every driver, crossover, and sound tube. This gives the internals more solidity while serving as a dampener to absorb the unwanted resonance instead of reflecting them out of phase. With A.R.C. clarity is increased substantially, bass is deeper, and the IEM becomes more efficient overall. [[SECTION]] What's In The Box Included at no additional charge with each order.
