Noble announces their most advanced TWS ever in the FoKus Rex5 with integrated sound personalisation by Audiodo

November 26th 2024, UK: US based Noble is happy to announce the latest addition to its wide range of high-end true wireless earbuds. Introducing the FoKus Rex5 hybrid five-driver TWS with Active Noise Cancelling (ANC), Noble’s most advanced product to date and first collaboration with Audiodo’s sound personalisation software.

Boasting a hybrid five driver configuration consisting of 1 x dynamic, 1 x planar, and 3 x balanced armature drivers – the FoKus Rex5 has been under development for some time now, and the final result is a feature rich TWS implementing new technology rarely seen in the competition.

The Noble FoKus Rex5 will be available to pre-order on 26th November and shipping on 29th November from selected retailers worldwide for $449/£419/€499.

The Noble FoKus Rex5 earbuds are designed with a hybrid five-driver configuration to deliver remarkable depth and clarity of sound – rarely achieved in true wireless audio. Each earbud combines a powerful 10mm dynamic driver, a precise 6mm planar driver, and three balanced armature drivers, creating an impressive soundstage that effortlessly delivers rich, full bass, detailed mid-tones, and crystal-clear highs across an extended frequency range of 20Hz to 40kHz.

Paired with advanced audio codecs including aptX Adaptive, and LDAC, the FoKus Rex5 seamlessly adapts to different listening sources, ensuring high-resolution audio performance that meets the standards of audiophiles and music lovers alike. This innovative combination of premium drivers and top-tier codecs sets the FoKus Rex5 apart as a truly satisfying audio option for all listeners.

Taking sound customisation to new heights, the Noble FoKus Rex5 integrates Audiodo’s innovative sound personalisation software that adapts audio to each user's hearing needs. The setup process guides listeners through a unique calibration that fine-tunes audio output based on the sensitivity of each ear. 

The memory capability of the QCC3091 chip stores this customised profile within the earbuds, making it accessible on any device - no app required. This feature is particularly revolutionary for listeners with uneven hearing, delivering a balanced listening experience that adapts to individual needs.

The Noble FoKus Rex5 earbuds excel in both performance and versatility, with impressive battery life that allows for up to 7 hours of playback without ANC and 5 hours with ANC activated from the earbuds. The charging carry case then adds up to 40 hours of extra playtime so you can top-up on the go. This extended playtime ensures that users can enjoy their favourite music or podcasts throughout the day with little interruption. Then, its fast charging capability means that just 15 minutes of charge time equates to approximately two hours of playtime. The sophisticated ANC technology effectively minimises external noise, allowing for a more immersive listening experience, while the Transparency mode enables users to stay aware of their surroundings when needed.

Additionally, the onboard memory feature enhances the EQ capabilities by storing personalised sound profiles directly within the earbuds, so users can enjoy their tailored audio settings across devices and without the need of Noble’s app. Coupled with advanced features like Bluetooth 5.4 and multipoint connectivity, the FoKus Rex5 delivers flawless sound and intuitive user control for a listening journey like no other.

The Noble FoKus Rex5 will be available to pre-order on 26th November and shipping on 29th November from selected retailers worldwide for $449/£419/€499. For any sample enquiries or to request added information, please contact either John or Kyri at Jackrabbit.

Formed by John ‘The Wizard’ Moulton in 2013, Noble Audio has been crafting some of the most impressive custom and universal in-ear monitors ever since. Noble’s first release was the highly acclaimed K-10 which quickly put Noble on the map as a brand to look out for in the audiophile world. With subsequent releases including the Encore, Katana and Khan – Noble has gained numerous awards including multiple Headphone of the Year titles.

Jim Moulton became 50% owner in 2018, and since then the two brothers have grown Noble well beyond its original audiophile IEM home. Releasing the true wireless Falcon Pro in 2020 and later the FoKus Pro TWS in 2021 to more high praise and awards, Noble proved that they can achieve greatness in the world of wireless audio too.

Noble continues to break boundaries in the world of audio, with models such as the Viking Ragnar and Ronin displaying the technological expertise and attention to detail sown by the team. In 2023 Noble launched their FoKus Prestige all-wood TWS – a first of its kind and widely recognised as the finest true wireless in-ear monitor. With more to come in 2024, Noble is a brand to watch out for.
