SPARK Microsystems Brings Premium Sound to Pro Audio Market, Powering LEWITT’s Debut Studio Headphones

Premier audio brand LEWITT expands into wireless headphone market with LE-UWB™

MONTREAL--(BUSINESS WIRE)--SPARK Microsystems, a Canadian fabless semiconductor company specializing in next-generation short-range wireless communications, today announced its commercial entry into the pro audio market, enabling the wireless connectivity for LEWITT’s new LW6 wireless headphones for studio and audio production engineers.

Renowned for its professional studio and live microphones featured in Grammy Award-winning recordings, LEWITT is expanding its product portfolio into headphones with the new LW6. LEWITT’s entry into the pro audio headphone market is differentiated by SPARK’s ultra-low latency, high-throughput LE-UWB™ (Low Energy Ultra-Wideband) wireless connectivity.

LEWITT’s LW6 wireless studio headphones are designed for precision, reference-quality mixing, mastering, monitoring and recording, delivering ultra-low latency audio (under 6 ms) without compression. The LW6 performance profile is uniquely advanced, ensuring seamless wireless connectivity and bit-perfect audio quality that rivals high-end, wired studio headphones. SPARK’s power-efficient LE-UWB™ technology helps enable the LEWITT LW6 to achieve playback time of up to 21 hours between charges.

“LEWITT’s LW6 wireless headphones provide freedom of movement and freedom from cables with no compression and no compromises in audio quality. This is a major milestone for professional audio engineering,” said Roman Perschon, CEO of LEWITT. “SPARK’s LE-UWB™ wireless technology stands well apart from legacy connectivity, ensuring that LEWITT customers around the world gain major advantages in pro audio headphone performance.”

“Cumbersome, constricting wired connectivity has been a fixture of pro audio environments for decades, for one reason: performance. SPARK’s LE-UWB™ wireless technology eliminates the tradeoff between wireless freedom and wired performance,” said Fares Mubarak, CEO of SPARK Microsystems. “LEWITT’s LW6 headphones liberate studio professionals in ways that can’t be achieved with competing, conventional technology. That’s a strong foundation to build a product portfolio on.”
