Product Description
The Noble Fokus Apollo exist (sic) as the answer to the question: what is the best money can buy? For a considerable outlay, they offer best-in-class detail along with an exceptionally enjoyable listen, an avalanche of connection options, a premium build and a comfortable design. The only compromise to be found is the price, but if you want the best, here it is....The Noble Fokus Apollo produce nothing short of a masterpiece of a listening experience. The soundstage is vast and compelling, bass is punchy and warm, mid-tones have no harshness and are expressive, and the trebles have a compelling clarity and sparkle to them.
The FoKus Apollo is Noble's first forey into the world of over-ear headphones. The Apollo is a powerhouse of industry leading sound quality and innovation.
Benefits of the Apollo's dual speaker arrangement:
Since a planar magnetic speaker's diaphragm is extremely thin, lighter even than the air it moves, planar magnetic speakers are known for their delicacy and accuracy, without the blurring effects of excessive inertia. The drawback to such speakers however is that they lack the ability to move sufficient air mass to produce the quality of bass that most listeners prefer. Dynamic drivers provide excellent bass by moving significant amounts of air, but due to their mass, dynamic drivers cannot provide the crystal clear mid and high frequencies that planar magnetic speakers are capable of. By utilizing both a dynamic speaker and a planar magnetic speaker the Noble FoKus Apollo provides the clarity of a planar magnetic driver, while retaining the bass of a dynamic driver.
