As Future Sonics is balancing their history as the innovators of the original Ear Monitors brand professional custom earphones for many of the biggest music tours with their new popularity in consumer electronics with their Atrio brand professional universal-fit earphones, experience is truly the best teacher.

At the 2008 Summer NAMM Show in Nashville, TN, Future Sonics is unveiling its revision 2 edition of the critically acclaimed Future Sonics Atrio (pronounced AY-tree-oh) professional earphones. This revision includes some great new improvements that respond to musicians, engineers, producers, production companies, plus excellent consumer responses and the company's own research and development, but with no MSRP price increase to the end-user.

“We were able to listen to our clients and respond to the things they’ve asked for while maintaining our signature sound,” states Marty Garcia, founder and president of Future Sonics. “There is nothing else like it anywhere, or at any price, and we’re very proud of what we continue to accomplish for excellence in audio quality and reliability."

This new update is the ideal choice for a wide range of applications including the live concert stage, recording studios, broadcast applications, and house of worship. Atrio is also the perfect companion for advanced gaming and digital media players like Apple's iPod, iPod Touch, iPhone, Microsoft Zune, Sirius and XM Satellite receivers and much more for those consumers who want professional audio quality from their personal digital media devices.

What's New

QuietCables II for excellent audio quality, more flexibility, less tangling, and more comfortable fit around the ear - or hanging from the ear
Improved performance with TrueTimbre frequency response of 18Hz -20,000Hz for even more natural sound quality with less need to crank up the volume to achieve the wider range of audio quality
Improved cable slider for more secure positioning and greater comfort when cabling is worn behind the ear

The Power of 1

Atrio professional earphones use a single studio-grade dynamic driver that is designed and manufactured by Future Sonics. This provides superior performance and the Future Sonics audio signature not found in any other product line, or at any price. Unlike two-way, three-way, four-way or so-called "hybrid" armature driver (hearing aid type) earphones, there are no electronic or comb filtering artifacts, no phase issues, and no crossover dropouts. Atrio professional earphones provide a perfectly balanced, natural and realistic sound with a sense of "feel."

The universal fit of the Atrio professional earphones also offer multiple options to satisfy individual preferences and ear sizes. Included with the device are three interchangeable pairs of Future Sonics designed EarFills dual-flange silicon sleeves (small, medium and large) that allow the earpiece to fit snugly in any size ear canal. As another option, the Atrio professional earphones come with two pairs of Future Sonics specially designed ComfortFit foam sleeves (large and small); these sleeves can replace the EarFills for wearers who prefer a more complete seal of the ear canal.
