Audio-Technica has unveiled its latest ATH-WP900SE wired over-ear headphones, a limited edition spin on the brand's established ATH-WP900 cans.
Aimed at "listeners who appreciate both artistry and performance", the ATH‑WP900SEs take inspiration from classic electric guitar design, with the headphones' earcups featuring a three-tone sunburst lacquer that pays tribute to those classic axes of yore.
At the heart of the new wired over-ears headphones is a newly designed 53mm driver paired with an advanced voice coil, built to produce what Audio-Technica describes as "high-resolution sound across the entire frequency range".
Each pair is built in collaboration with Japanese guitar manufacturer Fujigen and includes a dedicated branded cleaning cloth and a handwritten serial number card, making each unit unique in its own right. Two detachable cables – 4.4 mm and standard 3.5 mm – are also included in the box.
The ATH-WP900SE will be available from the 11th of June, priced at £599 / €699.
This isn't the first time we've seen Audio-Technica produce a pair of wood-clad wired headphones. The ATH-WBLTD from 2024 blended a trio of maple, walnut, and mahogany hardwoods, although at £1599 / €1799 per pair, they'd cost you a good deal more than the new WP900SE.
