Knowles Introduces New Multi-Way Balanced Armature Driver Family to Simplify Premium IEM Design

Pre-configured multi-driver combinations with integrated crossover circuits accelerate development of high-performance in-ear monitors
February 3, 2026

Knowles Corporation today announced the availability of a new family of multi-way balanced armature driver combinations designed to streamline the development of premium in-ear monitors (IEMs), gaming earphones, and high-resolution audio products.

For decades, designing high-performance IEMs has required the careful selection and integration of multiple individual drivers, along with complex crossover tuning to achieve the desired sound signature. Knowles’ new multi-way driver family simplifies that process by combining advanced BA technologies into compact, pre-configured packages with integrated crossover circuits — enabling faster development and consistent, world-class audio performance.
