All thanks to the Oscar-winning movie about Mozart’s life, everyone should be familiar with the name “Amadeus”. Noble Audio chooses to take this name for the new true wireless earbuds to celebrate the musical purity and precision that Mozart represented.
The Noble Audio FoKus Amadeus blends classical artistry with contemporary engineering, featuring a bold red faceplate encasing a newly developed 8.3mm custom triple-layer diaphragm dynamic driver and high-resolution Bluetooth audio codecs like LDAC, aptX Adaptive, AAC, and SBC.
Through the smartphone app, users can personalise the tuning using Audiodo Personal Sound software to analyse and calibrate each ear. The software tests your hearing sensitivity for the different frequencies and then compensates by adjusting the respective frequencies. After creating a Personal EQ, users can further adjust their preferred sound balance using a 10-band EQ and a 3-point EQ curve. It’s an impressive arsenal of EQ tools available for FoKus earbuds.
I must say that the Personal EQ improved my opinion of the Amadeus. Before, the music lacked the bass fullness and midrange warmth, but after applying the Personal EQ, I am getting more bass response with improved midrange fullness. The drivers deliver spatial sound staging and maintain discipline in reproducing the numerous instruments mixed in the track, allowing me to hear them distinctly and cleanly..
I would prefer to adjust the frequency further using the EQ curve to give a general lift on the bottom and top to give the sound a little more impact. The Amadeus seems to be able to handle the EQ adjustments without distortion. Even when playing Billie Eilish’s “Bad Guy” and pushing the low bass to the max, the earbuds fill up the bass with satisfying boom.
With versatility in applying EQ without affecting the musical integrity, the Amadeus can be the earbuds suited for anyone’s listening preference.
The Noble Audio FoKus Amadeus retails at SGD 499.
