What's With All the Hype?

Thieaudio, a "used-to-be" nameless group of DIY enthusiasts who are now one of the best acclaimed IEM brands in the world, has announced HYPE, their new Hybrid Performance line of next-gen IEMs. They've been paying close attention to each of their projects, striving to improve upon each development and learning what it means to create better sounding solutions that customers crave. As the name implies, the Hype series will integrate multiple transducer types that best demonstrate innovations in the field to bring together new IEMs that excel in both technicalities and tonality.

The Hype 10 was designed from the ground-up specifically for music enthusiasts and audiophiles who want the most engaging and discerning sound. With a strong sub-bass shelf and articulate treble, the Hype 10 brings out the deep rumble and sparkling details in your music. With a near 10dB bass shelf, the Hype 10 punches heavily in the lows. However, the bass has been retained to 300Hz, in typical Thieaudio fashion, as to prevent unnatural muddying to the overall tonal balance. The mids from the 300Hz to 1kHz is flat in order to highlight the natural tonality of instruments and vocals. The treble has been tuned in accordance to the lows, as to carefully bring a little more crispness and clarity to the overall sound signature.

High Performance Import Balanced Armature Drivers

The Hype 10 utilizes genuine Knowles SWFK 31736 series ultra-tweeters from the USA, along with two Sonion E50DT midrange and two Sonion 28UAP bass drivers from Denmark. Arranged in a 4-way crossover with 4 independent sound bores, the Hype 10 makes use of best-in-class drivers engineered with precision for high-fidelity audio reproduction. The ultra-treble tweeters allow treble extension until 40kHz, for an airy and Hyper realistic atmosphere in the sound. Additionally, the combination of the E50DT with the SWFK 31736 driver creates a perfect transition and coherence in the mids and treble, with crisp details, articulation, and layering. The 28UAP series were chosen based on their success in our signature series models. The bass from a dual 28UAP driver configuration produces extremely fast bass hits and decays, which integrates with the deep and textured sub-bass from the IMPACT2 system. The combination of these 10 drivers in each ear produces a high resolution sound intended to mimic professional audiophile loudspeakers.

Introducing IMPACT²

The IMPACT² (Impact Squared) is Thieaudio's latest technological innovation to change the personalized audio industry. IMPACT² is a new subwoofer solution consisting of two 10mm composite diaphragm drivers arranged in an isobaric design. The addition of another 10mm subwoofer significantly enhances the power and texture of the bass, while the in-house isobaric chamber design keeps the frequency and pressure constant. This means better quality bass without sacrificing tonal integrity.

Custom Audiophile Cable

The Hype 10 comes standard with a high-grade silver-plated OCC cable. This upgrade in cable materials provides a little more clarity and refinement compared to the previous generation of Thieaudio’s cables.
