Noble Audio’s new Falcon Max true wi-fi stereo earbuds are the corporate’s first to combine complex all-silicon solid-state MEMS-based drivers from xMEMS Labs, the corporate mentioned Tuesday.
Liberate of the brand new earbuds with a hybrid-driver setup follows fresh information that xMEMS plans to supply its first full-spectrum Cypress MEMS “ultrasonic” speaker in 2024. That are supposed to permit solid-state earbuds with outstanding full-spectrum audio high quality.
Falcon Max TWS earbuds with xMEMS Labs’ solid-state, all-silicon MEMS-based drivers
Texas-based Noble struck a strategic partnership with xMEMS so it might convey out Noble Falcon Max, “the marketplace’s first TWS earbuds to undertake xMEMS’ state of the art MEMS speaker era.”
I wrote about xMEMS’ coming innovative Cypress ultrasonic speaker in November. Stated to be the primary solid-state microspeaker that may generate low-frequency power for a complete bass reaction, it might imply earbuds received’t want hybrid drivers to hide the entire sound spectrum. Within the intervening time, then again, xMEMS has partnered with firms like Noble on hybrid designs that make the most of silicon for upper frequencies, now not the overall spectrum.
“With xMEMS’ motive force turning in outstanding sound high quality, section coherence and treble extension, Falcon Max furthers Noble Audio’s standing as a pioneer in transportable audio studies,” Noble mentioned.
Along with xMEMS drivers, Falcon Max comprises Qualcomm’s newest SoC and is appropriate with aptX adaptive audio codec in addition to LDAC codec. Noble referred to its “Trinity design theory” that emphasizes choice of drivers, SoC and formats for the highest-possible sound high quality.
Right here’s how the corporate described the elements:
Drivers: Hybrid motive force configuration consisting of xMEMS Cowell, for crystal transparent excessive frequencies, and a 10mm high-performance dynamic motive force for low frequencies. In combination, this mixture guarantees exact, excessive constancy, high-resolution audio throughout all the frequency vary.
SoC: The SoC [system on a chip] used is the most recent era Qualcomm QCC5171 (Qualcomm S5 Sound Platform). It doubles computing functionality whilst decreasing energy intake by way of 20% in comparison to earlier merchandise.
Formats: Falcon Max is the primary Noble Audio product to beef up Bluetooth 5.3 and LDAC high-resolution wi-fi audio codec. There’s additionally beef up for Qualcomm’s high quality certification “Snapdragon Sound,” SBC, AAC, aptX adaptive (24bit/96kHz, Lossless) and LC3 (for LE-Audio). In every other first for the corporate, Noble Audio will achieve high-resolution wi-fi certification for Falcon Max.
Different options:

- Suitable with third era Adaptive Lively Noise Cancellation (ANC), which improves convenience and sound high quality by way of dynamically adjusting the noise cancellation impact in real-time in keeping with the consumer’s frame actions and the encircling atmosphere.
- Helps multi-point (as much as two gadgets) and multi-pairing.
- Helps aptX Voice for crystal transparent speech high quality.
- 4th era “Top Precision Attach Era” and “True Wi-fi Mirroring Era” for top connection balance.
- Customizable settings and EQ with a devoted keep an eye on app shared with Falcon ANC.
- Wi-fi charging case with multi-function buttons and USB Kind-C port.
- Contains foam pointers for top sound insulation and luxury.
Falcon Max will get started transport on December 18 at a price of $270, the corporate mentioned.
