KS Distribution GmbH announces that Etymotic has launched a new range of Bluetooth wireless products:
New are the Etymotion Bluetooth cable and wireless versions of the IEM models ER2XR, ER3XR (for review) and ER4XR (for review).
The Etymotic Etymotion BT Bluetooth Cable
The Etymotion BT from Etymotic is said to be both an evolution of the Etymotic brand and an evolution of Bluetooth cable modules. Using the latest Qualcomm chipset, the Etymotion BT supports AptX, AptX HD and AptX LL, allowing audio to be transmitted at 24-bit/48 kHz resolution without loss.
The Etymotion BT is the first device of its kind to feature a dedicated DAC and headphone amplifier. The use of an AKM AK4331 amplifier with Velvet Sound technology is said to be far superior to Qualcomm’s built-in solutions, giving the Etymotion BT an edge over the competition in terms of sound quality and performance.
This cable is said to be designed for use with the latest Etymotic ER series earphones, but will also work with many other earphones that have MMCX connectors.
Etymotion BT – RRP €199.95
- Bluetooth 5.0 with aptX, aptX HD, aptX LL
- 8+ hours battery life
- Dedicated DAC and headphone amplifier
- Built-in microphone and remote for playback, volume and telephony control
- Compatible with Google Assistant and Siri
- MMCX connectors
Etymotic ER2XR-BT – Etymotion BT Bluetooth cable included.
The ER2XR is said to deliver impressive bass response while maintaining Etymotic’s renowned midrange and treble clarity. Like all models in the ER in-ear series, it offers up to 35 dB of isolation when used with the included earpieces. Details in the music should thus be able to be perceived without having to increase the volume to compensate for ambient noise. The ER2XR’s high-performance dynamic drivers meet the in-ear monitoring needs of musicians – but are also intended to appeal to casual listeners who want a little more bass presence.

The flagship ER Series is constructed of precision-engineered, anodized and laser-etched aluminum enclosures and features user-replaceable, detachable cables.
