Poseidon's Trident: Inheriting the Flagship Unit Configuration

Triton employs a new generation of hybrid unit configuration, including Sonion's newly developed dual bone conduction unit architecture, which brings strong spatial sensation and transient response performance. Coupled with the Weapon 9+ subwoofer dynamic driver that can create powerful bass impact, and two specially customized Sonion balanced armature drivers, it offers a robust low-frequency foundation under rich and moist mid-frequency vocals, allowing you to enjoy a more complete and three-dimensional spatial sound effect with extreme resolution and sound details. Additionally, Triton is designed with a "dual sound delivery structure" for the full frequency range from 5Hz to 100kHz, enabling the three types of drivers to work in tandem in terms of acoustic performance, ultimately achieving a high-end model that is close to the musicality and layering of the flagship models.

Dual Conduction Architecture

Dual Conduction Architecture (DCA) - At the heart of Empire Ears' relentless pursuit of excellence lies a dedication to pushing the boundaries of in-ear monitor technology. This unwavering commitment led to the creation of Dual Conduction Architecture (DCA), a revolutionary approach that harmonizes air and bone conduction.

Triton, our latest innovation, masterfully integrates this groundbreaking design, enhancing both the auditory and tactile elements of music. This fusion delivers an extraordinary listening

Ventilation Mastery

TRITON’s acoustic architecture, particularly due to the Dual High Mass Bone Conductors, necessitated a precise approach to air volume and exhaust design. Fine-tuning the enclosure’s ventilation was critical, as minute adjustments in vent diameter and placement profoundly influenced sound quality and performance. Through meticulous calibration of the vented drivers' volume requirements, we've unlocked its full potential, optimizing the output and maximizing the auditory experience. This precision ensures TRITON delivers unparalleled sound fidelity, demonstrating our commitment to acoustic perfection.

Innovation and Heritage: The Design and Craftsmanship of Triton

Empire Ears has adopted the dazzling "Dragonhide" panel design from the previous Valkyrie series for Triton. This panel is made from nine different polymers and undergoes three specialized lamination processes. Each layer of the panel possesses the ability to filter and reflect different wavelengths, resulting in a stunning color gradient effect that changes with the viewing angle, offering a unique visual experience.

In terms of shell craftsmanship, Triton employs exquisite inlay and polishing techniques to create a one-piece molded resin shell. This not only provides a more ergonomic fit but also further reduces the size of the earphone shell and allows for more precise control of the internal layout. Such design maximizes the utilization of internal space, providing ample room for the installation of sound units.

Through an integrated acoustic chamber structure, the sound waves from the units can be reflected and fused within the chamber. This not only enhances the vocal performance of each unit and reduces sound distortion caused by resonance but also brings the overall sound quality to a more refined and highly resolved level.

A.R.C. Treated Chassis

Empire Ears has specially advanced the A.R.C. (Anti-Resonance Compound) damping coating technology. This enhancement is applied to the units, crossovers, and tubes inside the Triton. By effectively reducing the excessive harmonic resonance produced by the bone conduction units, the A.R.C. coating comprehensively enhances the acoustic performance of the bone conduction units. This results in clearer and more natural sound details, along with deeper and more resonant bass.

synX Crossover Technology

Empire Ears boasts the most complex and advanced crossover technology in their earphone products, known as "synX." This technology supports a wide frequency range, with a precise design that eliminates the phase distortion commonly found in conventional multi-way crossovers. By accurately delivering sound signals to the units of various frequency bands, synX ensures smooth transitions between frequencies. The synX technology is characterized by a high signal-to-noise ratio and low distortion, allowing for the clear and detailed reproduction of music.

Launch Edition Exclusive Cable: Monarch

In our relentless pursuit of extraordinary sound, our founder and engineer, Dean Vang, leaves no stone unturned. Monarch is a testament to this commitment, marking Empire Ears' debut in the world of high-end audio cables.

Monarch is a quinbrid design, featuring a sophisticated blend of 5 precious materials:

  • Solid Core 4N Silver
  • Silver Plated over 6NOCC
  • Solid Core 5N OCC Silver
  • Gold Plated over 4N Silver
  • Palladium Plated over 4N Silver

Encased in dual-layer transparent SoftFlex PVC and complemented by black stranded nylon braiding, Monarch combines visual elegance with superior engineering. It features a 4.4 Pentaconn connector, which ensures the highest quality audio transmission and offers superior durability and compatibility with balanced audio devices. Monarch is designed to elevate your listening experience to extraordinary heights, embodying the very essence of Empire Ears' relentless pursuit of extraordinary.

Launch Edition Package

Triton Launch Edition represents the pinnacle of our dedication to excellence, featuring 4 exclusive items that are designed to captivate and inspire. With only 55 units in Hong Kong, this launch edition is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Empire Ears' legacy.

Sound Signature

Triton  cleverly merge the advantages of various driver types, resulting in a balanced and highly adaptive tuning style. Driven by the W9+ dynamic driver, the sound showcases exceptional low-frequency elasticity. The bass is deep and richly layered, providing a tangible sense of energy. In terms of vocal performance, Triton is equally outstanding. The vocals are forward and intimate, with high density and fullness, and the vocal positioning is clear. The high frequencies, supported by the bone conduction units, offer bright and detailed extension, with refined and rich overtones.

With excellent resolution, the spatial sense of music and the separation of the three frequencies are just right, making the layers of music clear and rich. Especially for listeners who love female vocals and vocal-centric pop music, Triton allows for deeper immersion into the musical atmosphere, enjoying every touching detail.
