The original Sone096 was a classic. The Sone096 New is a masterpiece.

In an industry where "new" often means "we changed the color and raised the price," Sone096 has delivered a genuine generational leap. The integration of analog drivers with real-time digital correction (Tri-Engine Calibration) solves the age-old audiophile dilemma: Can an IEM be both warm and analytical?

But for the rest of the world—the ones who want to hear the music exactly as the artist intended—the Sone096 New is the only logical choice available in 2025.
