LESZY · Slavic folklore

Leszy is a universal in-ear monitor handcrafted in Poznań, Poland. It has fivedrivers per side, aluminium shells anodised in dark forest green, and afaceplate with an inlay of natural Polish wood from trees that grow about 30 kmfrom our workshop. The whole product, down to the box it comes in, is builtaround one story.
The legend

In old Slavic tales, every forest had its guardian. The Polish called him Leszy. 

He watched over the trees and the creatures that lived among them. Those who entered with respect could pass safely beneath his branches. Those who did not might hear a familiar voice calling from somewhere deeper in the woods, and discover that the path home had disappeared. 

These stories have travelled through generations, but for us, the forest has never felt distant. It begins just beyond Poznań, not far from our workshop. 

The wood shaped into every Leszy faceplate comes from those same forests: no two pieces identical, each carrying its own grain, its own character and a fragment of the place it came from. 

Leszy is our way of sharing that story. Designed and handcrafted in Poland, every pair carries something of our landscape, our folklore and the quiet, untamed nature that shaped us. Our piece of home, made to travel with those who listen. 

The Sound

Leszy follows the Craft Ears house sound, with more character. Compared with therest of our line it is more dynamic, lively and engaging, and it has more energy.The bass is fuller and more pronounced, the midrange stays natural and open, andthe treble is detailed and precise without turning bright.

Drivers and acoustics

1DD + 3BA + 1 PLANAR

Five drivers per side work through a four-waypassive crossover on a PCB: a 9.2 mm LSRdynamic driver for the bass, three balancedarmatures covering the low mids, mids and highmids, and a 6 mm round planar magnetic driver,made for Craft Ears, for the treble and air.

SES 4.0™ is our acoustic system for the upperpart of the spectrum. The planar driver works intoa horn, and alongside it sit three resonators,a mix of quarter-wave and Helmholtz types,which shape the upper midrange and thehigh frequencies.

True Load Evo™ gives Leszy an impedance curvethat is close to flat, but deliberately not entirelyflat. It was designed this way, so that the IEMsrespond predictably to changes of cableand source.05 

Build

The shells are aluminium, machined on advanced 5-axis CNC machines, then anodised indark forest green colour with a satin-finished surface. Inside, precisely designed insertsprinted on state-of-the-art 3D printers integrate the drivers, the acoustic chambers, soundtubes of variable length and diameter, and the resonators.

The faceplate is metal, machined with a precise high-tech pattern, and joins the shellseamlessly. Set into it is an inlay of natural Polish wood from trees that grow about 30 kmfrom our workshop in Poznań, Poland, where every pair is handcrafted. The Craft Ears logoon the wood is gold.

Made in Poland

The nozzles are made from a special bronze alloy that is more resistant to patina andoxidation than ordinary bronze, so they keep their look for a long time. The cable is 8-core OCC in its natural copper colour, with a 4.4 mm balanced plug and0.78 mm 2-pin connectors.06

The packaging carries the same story as the pair inside: forest green, wood, brown leather andartwork drawn from the legend.
