Lou's Electronics today officially launched the new RAF series of balanced armature drive units to help audible equipment and headset designers create the next generation of high-end headphones. Designed for wireless products, the receiver is small, high-efficiency, and is an ideal component for a wide range of high-end music playback headphones, audible devices, Bluetooth headsets, communication headsets and mini audio amplifiers.

As consumers become more enthusiastic about using their smartphones to play music, listen to podcasts and audiobooks, sound quality is still one of the most critical features of headphones. The latest industry survey* found that 90% of respondents expect high-quality sound from their devices. The survey also found that 92% of respondents said they were disappointed when the headset was unable to connect with the playback software; 84% of the respondents were very concerned about the stability of the existing connection. Today, the sound quality and connection stability are of paramount importance. The RAF series drive unit will help the industry achieve high-end sound quality and great design flexibility.

“ Luos Electronics will continue to provide customers with leading audio-visual equipment and high-end headset solutions to promote the industry.” Christian Scherp, President of High-performance Audio Division of Lou's Electronics , said: “The wireless products in the market have sprung up, RAF The series will satisfy consumers' desire for richer, higher-quality sound, while the small size allows designers to install high-performance antennas, improve connection stability, and gain more battery space and longer operating time."

Compared to the smallest size of the moving coil drive unit, the RAF series uses less space to meet the needs of higher audio quality and supports manufacturers to improve connection performance. The RAF also ingeniously turned the port from the end of the part to the side. It seems like a simple step, but behind it there is a very high technical difficulty. This innovative design maintains the high-end sound quality of Lou's Electronics and “releases” more space to accommodate large models of batteries and high-performance antennas. This new design gives designers greater flexibility to better meet the needs of consumers.

The compact RAF series is a revolutionary product following the successful release of the RAB series of receivers. Both series enable manufacturers to provide consumers with comfortable, complete equipment and a more enjoyable listening experience. The low power consumption of the receiver helps to extend battery life and usage time.

In order to meet the expanding market needs of sports headphones, the RAF and RAB series have adopted the IPx7 waterproof rating. The IPx7 waterproof rating has gradually become an important feature of headsets, wearables and smartphones. The Louvre drive unit with IPx7 waterproof rating can last up to 30 minutes at depths of up to one meter. The waterproof drive unit meets the needs of sporty audible equipment without the need to add a protective film that can degrade the sound quality.

The RAF and RAB series are now in mass production.
