Product Description

For the first time, critical headphone mixing is truly reliable. IK Multimedia ARC ON•EAR is a standalone headphone DAC and amplifier solution that instantly corrects your headphones’ response and recreates the soundstage of professional studio monitors — so you can mix, master, and produce with confidence wherever you are.

THE HEADPHONE REFERENCE YOU CAN TRUST

Most headphones — even high-end models — color your sound, masking crucial details. With support for over 250 headphone models, ARC ON•EAR uses precision calibration profiles, measured on state-of-the-art rigs, to flatten your headphones’ frequency response for transparent, reliable sound. Unlike plug-ins or convolution-based virtual room plug-ins, ARC ON•EAR uses proprietary DSP and physical modeling to recreate the natural feel of studio monitors in a room, enabling precise mix decisions and achieving ideal tonal and spatial balance, depth, and width.

VIRTUAL MONITORING THAT GOES BEYOND

ARC ON•EAR’s Virtual Speaker feature lets you instantly test your mix on a range of real-world reference systems: studio monitors, car audio systems, smartphones, TV sets and more. With over 20 virtual studio monitors and more than 15 multimedia playback systems available, you’ll precisely understand how your mix translates without ever taking off your headphones.

STANDALONE PERFORMANCE — NO DAW, NO LATENCY

ARC ON•EAR functions as a standalone hardware unit, requiring no software, drivers, or plug-ins. It features USB-C and 3.5 mm audio inputs for all sources. ARC ON•EAR is compatible with any OS, app, or playback system. Store up to 5 presets for quick access. It is conveniently powered by a 4-hour rechargeable battery.

AUDIOPHILE SOUND QUALITY

Featuring ESS SABRE 32-bit converters, high-current headphone amplification, and a digitally controlled analog volume control, ARC ON•EAR ensures pristine sound quality. Manage headphone profiles, simulations, and presets with the dedicated ARC ON•EAR Control Software. Fine-tune sonics to your personal preference and save and load presets. Assign functions to the user-assignable button and update your headphone library
