＜＜February 2026 New Product！＞＞The Origin-1 is FitEar's first closed-back consumer headphones, inheriting the acoustic design of the professional model Monitor-1 SR.

■ [Toward a New Standard for a New Era] Sound as a common language connecting production and listening
・The Origin-1 is FitEar's first consumer-grade closed-back headphones, developed based on the Monitor-1 SR (Studio Reference) professional headphones designed for use on stage and in the studio. Enjoy the reliable sound required for music production, from stage PA applications to studio mixing/mastering, right in your listening environment. The name Origin-1 reflects the brand's commitment to recreating the origins of music and representing the first step for young sound creators as the brand's first consumer headphones. The headphone connector is a highly reliable mini-XLR 4-pin. The included cable is a 2m straight cable with a 6.3mm stereo standard plug. It also includes a 6.3mm to 3.5mm conversion cable and an original carrying case for easy portability. [Toward a New Standard for a New Era] The Origin-1 delivers a sound that serves as a common language connecting production sites and music lovers. Based on the acoustic design of professional headphones, leveraging FitEar's expertise in custom IEMs, which it has provided to over 7,000 artists and engineers, the Origin-1 delivers sound as a common language connecting production sites and all music lovers.

■Background to Headphone Development
- Today, FitEar's custom in-ear monitors (IEMs) have gone beyond stage monitoring and become essential tools for studio work, including recording and mixing. However, there is a mix of creators who prefer custom IEMs and engineers who primarily use headphones. The challenge was to create an environment where users could communicate using a common language for sound, regardless of their devices. FitEar embarked on the development of headphones to provide a stable monitoring environment that is sonically consistent with custom IEMs and can be used in a variety of environments.

■A Consumer Model in the Legacy of Professional Headphones
- The Monitor-1 SR professional headphones were created to meet the needs of studios and stageside. Based on that professional acoustic design, the Origin-1 was developed for all music lovers. The Origin-1 delivers the reliable sound required for frontline music production tasks like PA operation, mixing, and mastering, all in your listening environment.

■Uncompromising acoustic design and cross-border technical collaboration

- To achieve a wider range and flatter response in the lower sound pressure environments of mixing and mastering, we partnered with QIGOM in Shenzhen, China. Leveraging their proven track record in micro speaker OEM/ODM for over 20 years, the Origin-1 is equipped with a 40mm dynamic driver custom-tuned specifically for the Origin-1. Its unique wiring method combines high durability and delicate reproduction capabilities for professional use.

■ "Origin-1" - Three Origins
- This product name embodies FitEar's new challenge and its passion for music.
1) FitEar's new step: The "starting point" of the brand's first headphone product.
2) Listen to the original landscape of music: Recreating the rich resonance and emotion of the moment a song was born.
3) Supporting Creators' Aspirations: To become a "standard" that aspiring music producers can approach sound without hesitation.
