Noble Launches Kronos: New Titanium Flagship IEM Built on a Decade of Innovation

4 August 2025: Noble Audio, leaders in high-end personal audio, announce the launch of their latest flagship in-ear monitor, Kronos.

Originally developed as part of a limited-edition 10th anniversary model, Kronos enters full production for the first time. It builds on the legacy of the Chronicle, a design that was met with overwhelming demand from collectors and audiophiles globally, while refining the shell and cable for wider release and long-term use.

Now constructed from CNC-machined titanium and finished with titanium damascus faceplates, Kronos represents Noble’s most complete IEM to date. It combines technical excellence with premium materials and a lightweight, ergonomic fit for comfortable extended listening.

Launching at the Hong Kong High End Audio & Visual Show 2025, the Noble Audio Kronos will be available to purchase from 8th August 2025, priced at £4,100 / $4,500 / €4,750 from nobleaudio.com and selected high-end retailers worldwide.

Inside, Kronos features Noble’s most advanced hybrid driver system to date. Utilizing the same internal components as the Chronicle, the Kronos's precision-matched drivers are configured across a 6-way crossover network to deliver stunning clarity, powerful low-end energy, and a spacious, three-dimensional soundstage.

Each unit is hand-assembled and individually matched by Noble’s in-house team to ensure performance and consistency at the highest level.

Despite its complexity, Kronos is impressively easy to drive. With an impedance of less than 35 ohms, it is sensitive enough to perform brilliantly from most smartphones, as well as from high-end DAPs and portable headphone amps.

Designed for discerning audiophiles, DAP users and collectors, Kronos opens up flagship-level sound to a wide range of playback setups.

Supplied with a custom hybrid cable designed specifically for Kronos, the setup is engineered to deliver maximum detail, speed and transparency. Constructed from palladium-plated 4N pure silver and 6N OCC silver, the cable features a titanium yoke, a 4.4mm AEC balanced termination, and 0.78mm 2-pin connectors for broad compatibility.

Formed by John 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 recognized as the finest true wireless in-ear monitor. With more to come in 2024, Noble is a brand to watch out for.
