Overview
Drown is a brand new way to experience audio. Our patented technology uses tactile transmission of audio waves to deliver a fully immersive, real-life experience. Precision: Drown is hyper-realistic audio. It’s 360° with added depth, height, and spatial awareness. Immersion: Drown transports us directly into the game, concert, or movie. Feel like you are actually there. Connection: Play and interact with people all over the world and feel like you are in the same room.

 

 

The Drown audio platform delivers stunning tactile sound for a fully immersive audio experience. Hear your favorite games like it’s the first time. Drown gives you the ability to perceive your in-game surroundings more accurately - as if it were a true physical space. You feel like you’re actually in the game. 

 

TACTILE EARPHONES
VS. TYPICAL HEADSETS

 

 

Drown uses physics to trigger all three audio pathways to your brain, while passively blocking
outside noise.

1. Patent-pending acoustic waveguides sculpt the sound waves through a tactile system using scientifically tuned, high-end dynamic graphene drivers.

2. Physical awareness is created through bone and cartilage conduction. This gives you a deep, powerful bass response, to help you feel and perceive sound.

3. Spatial awareness is created by vibrations that stimulate nerves. This is how you perceive height, depth, and distance. These tactile audio waves deliver a hyper-realistic sound environment.

Drown brings these components together to create a unique and powerful audio experience.

 

 
 
 
 

Using data from thousands of ear scans and 3D-printed prototypes put in hundreds of ears, we have developed customizable sizing options.

A range of inserts are included with every Drown order, so you can find the fit that’s best for you.

 

To find the best fit start with a small size and increase as needed. It should feel snug and secure in your ear.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Designed in Edinburgh, Scotland, Drown delivers unrivaled audio that disrupts industry standards and improves gameplay.
