*********** AVAILABLE FOR DEMO ********* FoKus Apollo is Noble's first step into the world of over-ear headphones. The Apollo boasts the world’s first patented hybrid dual-driver design, combining a 40mm dynamic driver with a 14.5mm planar magnetic driver. This innovative setup leverages the strengths of both technologies to create a unique listening experience. The dynamic driver delivers deep bass and rich mid-range frequencies, while the planar magnetic driver provides detailed and accurate high frequencies, resulting in a balanced and immersive sound profile. For Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), Apollo is equipped with the QCC3084 chip, effectively reducing ambient noise from -20dB to -35dB, allowing users to enjoy their audio without external distractions. Additionally, the upgraded ANC chip powers the Transparency Mode, enabling users to remain aware of their surroundings when needed. With app compatibility for fine-tuning settings and updating firmware (recommended for optimal sound quality), these features showcase a forward-thinking, comprehensive technical design that enhances the overall user experience.

It's surprisingly coherent given its technical design. And while it's practically impossible to scratch every audiophile itch with one product, Noble has created a product that scratches very many. In a sense, it's a jack of all trades and a master of many. I'd recommend them for people using headphones on the go and want a fun-meets-refined sound signature. It won't replace true high end headphones, but it's a very nice contender at its price point. Major HiFi (Sep 2024)

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.
