Hybrid in-ear headphones
- DD subwoofer + two BA drivers + two microplanar tweeters
- Scientifically based IEF 2025 tuning: Precisely tuned by Crinacle to the IEF 2025 curve for speaker-like balance and true tonal neutrality
- 3D-printed acoustic waveguide: Resin-filled shell with internal 3D-printed chambers ensures phase-accurate crossover and acoustic precision
- Ergonomic design with modular cable: Comfort-oriented shell with universal fit and interchangeable 3.5 mm/4.4 mm plugs for flexibility and upgradeability
A new beginning
Daybreak is CrinEar's first mass-produced IEM product and a bold step forward in design, tuning, and execution.
Developed to push the boundaries of acoustic precision and performance, Daybreak sets new standards in the ever-evolving world of in-ear monitors.
Experience reference-grade audio quality with the CrinEar Daybreak, Crinacle's first mass-produced tribrid IEM.
With the Daybreak, CrinEar presents a pair of in-ear monitors that combine five drivers per side in a hybrid configuration to get the best out of each technology.
Designed for neutral sound reproduction with a comfortable listening experience, they combine an advanced crossover design with rigorous tuning methodology and optimized wearing comfort.
The result is earphones that are tailor-made for long listening sessions, minimizing both auditory and physical fatigue.
Hybrid 5-driver design
The CrinEar Daybreak features five drivers per earphone, utilizing different technologies to ensure optimal coverage of the entire audio spectrum.
A dynamic 10 mm driver provides bass with extended and controlled reproduction. Two balanced armature transducers ensure precise and detailed midrange reproduction.
Finally, two latest-generation planar magnetic tweeters provide excellent high-frequency reproduction.
IEF Preference 2025 curve as a guideline
The acoustic development of the Daybreak was based on the renowned Brüel & Kjær Type 5128 simulator, which ensures extreme precision in reproducing the target curve.
The tuning has been carefully calibrated to match the IEF Preference 2025 curve as closely as possible, which is known for providing a natural, balanced, and pleasant sound during long listening sessions.
The result is a neutral sound with a slight warmth in the bass range, very neutral mids, and detailed but never shrill highs.
3D printing and custom crossover
The Daybreak's housing is made of 3D-printed acrylic resin, a process that allows for extreme precision in shaping the internal acoustic channels.
Thanks to this technology, CrinEar was able to develop a complex crossover that is perfectly matched to the characteristics of each individual driver.
This approach ensures optimal frequency distribution, a smooth transition between the individual bands, and a consistency of sound that is rarely achieved in this price range.
Wearing comfort
Special attention has been paid to the ergonomics of the Daybreak earphones: their contoured shape fits naturally in the ear and ensures a secure fit without uncomfortable pressure points.
The acoustic nozzle, less than 6 mm in diameter, offers an excellent compromise between durability, isolation, and comfort, ensuring a comfortable fit even during long listening sessions.
Detachable cable with replaceable connector
The Daybreak comes with a detachable silver-plated copper cable that ensures optimal conductivity for lossless signal transmission. It features interchangeable connectors, allowing you to easily switch between an unbalanced 3.5 mm jack output and a balanced 4.4 mm jack output depending on your equipment and preferences.
