YU.
Hi-Fi meets gaming.
Four driver technologies. Detailed, balanced sound. Designed for music and gaming, YU combines Hi-Fi audio with an ergonomic in-ear design. Available in Black and Purple.
Four driver types.
One cohesive sound.
Four specialized drivers work together across the frequency range. Each is tuned for a distinct role, bringing bass, midrange, and high-frequency detail together in a balanced, cohesive presentation.
Balanced armature
Dedicated to the midrange, the balanced armature driver helps reproduce vocals and instruments with clarity and presence.
Midrange detailPlanar magnetic driver
The high-frequency planar magnetic driver contributes fine detail and transient definition to the upper range.
Treble detailPiezoelectric driver
The piezoelectric ceramic driver complements the planar driver, contributing to the IEM's upper-frequency presentation.

Laser-Finished Faceplate
Four-way crossover.
Seamless integration.
A four-way crossover combines physical acoustic design with electronic filtering. Each driver is assigned to the frequency range that suits its strengths and tuned individually, for precise reproduction within each band and smooth, natural transitions across the spectrum.

CNC-machined metal.
A finish that catches the light.
The CNC-machined metal faceplate features a feather-inspired motif and a laser-finished surface. Its colors and fine details shift subtly with the light and viewing angle, bringing the design to life.

3D-printed resin.
Precision within.
High-precision 3D printing faithfully forms the complex internal geometry of each resin shell. The process supports a stable acoustic structure and close consistency between the left and right housings.
Smooth, skin-friendly resin feels gentle against the ear, helping keep longer listening sessions comfortable.

An ergonomic fit.
Comfort that lasts.
Shaped to follow the ear canal, YU’s angled in-ear design sits securely and creates a seal that helps reduce outside noise. Soft liquid-silicone ear tips cushion the fit, so you can stay focused through long listening sessions and intense matches.
Angled fit
An angled nozzle follows the direction of the ear canal for a close, secure fit.
Soft silicone tips
Skin-friendly liquid silicone provides a soft seal and helps reduce pressure from extended wear.
Passive isolation
A well-fitted ear tip helps block outside distractions and keeps your attention on the sound.
Silver-plated OFC.
Every detail matters.
YU’s silver-plated oxygen-free copper cable is designed for faithful signal transmission and precise detail reproduction across the frequency range. Full bass, expressive vocals, and refined highs come together for immersive listening.

Two cables.
More ways to connect.
Two silver-plated oxygen-free copper cables come standard. With 0.78 mm 2-pin earphone connectors, you can switch between an analog listening setup and a USB-C connection with a detachable microphone.
1.2m
Analog listening.
The 1.2 m cable supports interchangeable 3.5 mm and 4.4 mm plugs for compatible audio outputs. This cable has no microphone.
1.7m
USB-C audio and voice.
The 1.7 m USB-C DSP cable uses four-strand silver-plated oxygen-free copper conductors. A detachable microphone adds voice chat and calls, with extra cable length for your setup.
Harman-inspired.
Balanced by design.
Using a Harman target as a reference, YU is refined through frequency-response, phase, distortion, and listening evaluations. Bass, midrange, and treble are balanced for a smooth, coherent presentation.
Expressive vocals and a well-defined soundstage bring a natural sense of space to your music. Development testing uses a B&K 5128 head and torso simulator.
