Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?

[clerkpalmer]

Looks nice and good price point. Hope these sell well for you.

Are there any plans to ever release a Noble TWS with an IP rating? I would have purchased these but it makes no sense (for my use) to risk these getting ruined by rain or sweat when commuting.

If I were a betting man, I'd bet that most of them would hold up fine with some sweat or very light drizzle with our without a formal IP rating which probably takes time and costs money. My guess is that manufacturing standards nowadays would cover this by default to some extent. Heavy rain, probably not but then again I'm not really sure anything would hold up to that.

Is that a rabbit or a cat? At first I thought cat. We have 3 in our house. Crazy cat people indeed.

I believe it is a cat.
We have 2 Scottish Folds & one stray.

Of the 3, I'm most fond of the stray. One of the Scottish Folds is the most emotionally unavailable animals I've ever encountered. Her, half sister, is an exact opposite.

And to try to stay in the realm of portable Audio:

Why did I choose the name Amadeus?

When I first heard the driver, I thought to myself, this sounds like it was made by someone that has dedicated their life to music.... like Amadeus.

The inspiration of the red face plate came from a popular portrait of Amadeus, wearing a red jacket.

I'm actually sure that Amadeus will sound at least very good but... £300 for a single driver TWS that is mainly SQ oriented? Dangerously close to the big boys in 'full package' TWS realm e.g. sony. They have recently released mk6 of their headphones so earbuds should follow soon. Big competition there. Anyhow I'm sure Noble knows what they are doing

Anyone got one of those noble Amadeus ? Can you please share kindly pictures I have small ears trying to see any luck with those fitting my tiny ears

Our definition of success probably differs, and operating in "comfort zones" isn't always a learning experience.

That's what I ment by saying you know what you are doing

Pretty fresh situation at this moment in time. Not exactly a scientific way of doing things

But here are some photos

I have to accept I dont have a crystal ball, and sometimes a leap of faith is necessary.

Probably, but as a gambling man that likes to make informed bets, I'm not willing to take that risk lol.

Might just be me (doubt it tho especially given this forum and Noble's background) but I don't use TWS for critical listening, l purely for wireless convenience when commuting, working out, phone calls, podcasts, and music listening in between.

An unexpectedly heavy rain could ruin them, but at the very least strong sweat resistance for workouts is needed.

I know it's an added cost to get that rating but my income isn't disposable enough to gamble on it.

How does the rex5 and amadeus compare in terms of tuning philosphy and sound @FullCircle ?

I'm kind of bummed about this. I use them the same way you do. I love my Rex5, but have another pair for workouts and rain. The Rex 5 is so worth the trade-off.

BUT that did not stop me from buying the Amadeus. Bought them on HiFI SoundGear. Look, no sales tax. You still owe taxes when you file, though. I like these guys.

We will see how they stack up to the Rex5 and the Beoplay.

Um, yeah no chance anyone would do that. Hope this was sarcastic.
