The FoKus Apollo is Noble's first forey into the world of over-ear headphones. The Apollo is a powerhouse of industry leading sound quality and innovation, featuring:
Benefits of the Apollo's patented dual speaker arrangement:
Since a planar magnetic speaker's diaphragm is extremely thin, lighter even than the air it moves, planar magnetic speakers are known for their delicacy and accuracy, without the blurring effects of excessive inertia. The drawback to such speakers however is that they lack the ability to move sufficient air mass to produce the quality of bass that most listeners prefer. Dynamic drivers provide excellent bass by moving significant amounts of air, but due to their mass, dynamic drivers cannot provide the crystal clear mid and high frequencies that planar magnetic speakers are capable of. By utilizing both a dynamic speaker and a planar magnetic speaker the Noble FoKus Apollo provides the clarity of a planar magnetic driver, while retaining the bass of a dynamic driver.
What is Hybrid ANC?
Hybrid ANC is a type of active noise cancellation that uses microphones on both the inside and outside of the headphone to cancel out ambient noise. It combines the advantages of feedforward and feedback ANC, allowing for faster noise pickup and more precise cancellation.
Simply fascinating. Stellar local only DAP. The triple timbre options are no gimmick. The ease of use is top notch. Screen clarity and UI responsiveness are near flawless. Best resolution, and this includes the ibasso DX170 and Sony A306. Sonically, what we have here is a technical yet musical affair, that is highly transparent while retaining a warm character, with fantastically resolving bass and extended treble that’s resolute but never shrill. As I said earlier, this is a nearly flawless Dap, as long as you’re not a streamer. This has been a true pleasure.
I love the opportunity to change op apps. The included one is my favorite. If you are thinking about it, it's a great product. Great build quality and feel in hand, unique design. So nice.
One month ago I bought EE Hero and its sound was missing low range according to my preference. A bass was very slightly present although its genuine cable made from 4 copper wires (24 AWG) and some silver plated strands
After exploring many brands and cables I decided to go for Code 24C counting on thicker major wires (18 AWG) and better purity of copper.
The Code 24C sounds absolutely amazing, with full audible spectrum, strong bass but not overwhelming to me. The sound is accurate, tight but warm bass and creates extended stage space.
Moreover, very fancy dark purple colour which is really nice and not distracting as i thought by looking pictures. The set for connecting is perfectly design to apply 2.5, 3.5 and 4.4mm in a high quality manner.
Definitely, it’s thick and not allowing to make small rounds requiring a more space for protection (in a folder or a box).
I recently purchased this cable through MusicTek. I found that this silver cable is very transparent, having balance throughout the frequency response. I found, the only slightly elevated region is the treble air regions, allowing a slightly wider soundstage. I also found that this cable adequately improved my Monarch Mk. 3, with noticeably better separation of instruments. This being that the Monarch Mk. 3 does slightly poorer on soundstage and instrument separation. Those iems often have trouble on busier tracks, and this cable noticeably improved that aspect, for me. This cable is for iems that already have amazing sonic properties, only improving upon those characteristics with transparency and a slightly wider soundstage, with more separation.
