Product details

Meet the Arete II, the refreshed release from Linsoul that builds on the original Arete’s popularity with a more precise tuning, stronger build, and a dedicated subwoofer. This wired in-ear monitor pairs a 1DD+4BA hybrid driver layout with a full CNC aluminum shell, delivering a consistent, engaging sound across genres. The result is a coherent listening experience that emphasizes texture in the mids, punch in the bass, and air in the treble—without sacrificing coherence or control.

Key improvements

  • 2nd generation composite dynamic driver adds stronger sub-bass and deeper low-end extension.
  • More precise crossover network for fuller lows and smoother transitions into the low-mids and midrange.
  • Enhanced treble with greater ultra-treble output, delivering more air and headroom at higher listening levels.

Driver architecture and tuning

  • New 10mm liquid silicone suspension diaphragm for subwoofer-like performance, with a stronger neodymium magnet array for deeper rumble and articulate punches.
  • Four balanced armature drivers: two Knowles ED 29689 midrange units for lush texture and pinna-friendly balance, plus Knowles SWFK 31736 dual tweeters for precise, extended highs.
  • Midrange is subtly boosted to enhance vocal and instrument texture, while the treble remains clean and extended for airier detail.

Build, durability, and cable

  • Full metal construction with an all-aluminum shell machined from solid blocks for durability and a premium feel.
  • Custom interchangeable cable with 2-pin 0.78mm connector and ultra-pure silver-plated OFC for quiet signal transmission.

In daily use, Arete II aims to balance robustness with refined acoustics. The combination of a dedicated subwoofer, a sophisticated four-BA layout, and the premium physical construction supports a listening experience that can suit both on-stage practice and high-fidelity home sessions. While individual results vary with source and genre, the Arete II presents a cohesive, engaging sound that listeners may find versatile for a wide range of music and applications.
