This precise design is well complemented by the Creative Aurvana Air’s luxurious champagne-gold finishing and polished metal accent that lends an air of timeless sophistication.
Powerful Neodymium magnet with ultra-thin drivers and acoustically-tuned Bass-Slots deliver a visceral acoustic performance. Combine this with the pristine delivery from high-purity OFC cabling and gold-plated plug makes the Creative Aurvana Air ideal for the digital entertainment needs for all users while they engage in active pursuits.
