Celest Yaksha features an 8mm custom DD for an impactful lower-end response, and a 10mm LCP diaphragm dynamic driver unit that produces crisp details in the midrange section. In order to produce accurate details in upper mids and high-frequency segments, Celest has entrusted Yaksha with a Knowles RAN-62462 composite BA driver unit. It retrieves good details and offers great response for vocals as well as instruments on the pair.

Celest has developed a micro-planar magnetic driver that produces impressive high and ultra-high frequency bands, offering an open, airy sound response. These drivers are arranged in a carefully designed four-way frequency crossover, allowing each driver to produce the desired response with utmost precision and quality.

Celest Yaksha is inspired by the Deity Yaksha. In Buddhist literature, Yaksha refers to an attendant of Vaisravana, the heavenly guardian of the north. The Yaksha is subordinate to Vaisravana and is a kind of ghostly spirit dwelling in the Trayasrimsha heaven. Yaksha is referred to be both sweet and ferocious. The design and tuning of the Celest Yaksha is done taking huge inspiration from the Deity. The pair features ferocious, designer face covers featuring swift wing-like patterns. The pair is available in two colour options, Red and Blue. With an ergonomic shape, the pair promises a comfortable wearing experience for its users.
