Noble Audio Knight is a premium hybrid headphone for music lovers who value both sound quality and design. Inspired by medieval chivalry, it combines advanced technology with sophisticated craftsmanship. The headphone is built around three different elements: a 10mm dual-magnetic dynamic woofer for deep and controlled bass, a Sonion mid-balanced armature for detailed midrange, and a piezoelectric tweeter for airy highs.
The CNC-machined aluminum housing is lightweight and durable, with a blue-purple front and hand-embossed shield emblem that symbolizes the harmony between the elements. A coaxial configuration and 3D-printed acoustic chamber optimize phase, spatiality, and resonance for a natural and accurate sound image.
Knight comes with an 8-wire silver-plated OFC cable that reduces signal loss and provides clearer tonal balance. Detachable 2-pin connectors provide flexibility for future upgrades.
True to Noble Audio's signature sound, the Knight offers balanced bass, lifelike midrange and detailed treble - perfect for everything from classical and jazz to rock.
Noble Audio Knight in brief:
* Hybrid IEM – 10mm dual-magnet dynamic driver, Sonion mid-balanced armature and piezo tweeter for wide and precise sound.
* Elegant and durable design – CNC machined aluminum shell with blue-purple front and hand-embossed shield emblem.
* Advanced acoustics – coaxial configuration and 3D-printed chamber for natural sound imaging and high precision.
* Upgradeable cable – 8-wire silver-plated OFC with detachable 2-pin connectors.
* Noble Audio signature sound – deep controlled bass, detailed midrange and clear, extended treble.
"The Noble Audio Knight presents a very competitive sound at this price point. You get a three-driver setup in an ergonomic design that is not only comfortable for long periods but also stylish.
The high performance emanating from within satiates one’s need at an affordable level when all is combined. The bass and midrange stand out as highlights, but its overall sonic balance combines with intricate detailing to make a compelling argument for an outstanding option.
While a dedicated case would have been a nice inclusion, the velour string bag functions as you expect while taking up less space. The additional case for the tips is a positive yes, but combined with the string bag makes for a cumbersome package, somewhat.
The Knight is also a bit source-sensitive, taking on the characteristics of the incoming sound, which may be a good or bad thing depending upon how you look at it. The versatility cannot be denied, though.
For those seeking an IEM that offers both an outstanding look and the substance to back it up, the Knight is a great investment. Noble Audio shows that entry-level does not necessarily mean compromising on sound quality."
