Knowles Corporation announced its second key design win with JLab in its latest Epic Sport ANC 3 True Wireless Earbuds. Designed to deliver an unparalleled listening experience with an ultra-secure fit, the JLab Epic Sport ANC 3 earbuds feature Knowles balanced armatures in a hybrid configuration that delivers superior treble and crystal-clear sound. This configuration enabled JLab to deliver both the Knowles Preferred Listening Response Curve as well as personalization options.
“A significant leap forward in audio performance for sports earbuds,” is how Knowles defines this new hybrid design implemented in the JLab Epic Sport ANC 3 True Wireless Earbuds. Despite their small size, the selected Knowles balanced armatures deliver exceptional treble performance, with output up to 40kHz, meeting the stringent standards for JAS Hi-Res Audio certification. In the Epic Sport ANC 3 design, the balanced armature driver - Knowles RAN tweeter - works harmoniously with a 10mm dynamic driver in each earbud to create a rich, well-balanced sound across the full frequency curve. Knowles BAs are also incredibly compact and enable designs that fit comfortably in the ear tip, and achieve superior fit without sacrificing comfort, sound quality, range, or battery life.
The enhanced treble response and high sensitivity of Knowles balanced armatures not only offer a superior listening experience, but facilitate customization of the frequency response curve, allowing listeners to personalize to their hearing and fully experience the higher treble frequencies in every piece of music. JLab designed its signature sound tuning to incorporate the Knowles Preferred Listening Response Curve, which is based on research showing that listeners of all ages and hearing abilities prefer an expanded treble response beyond 10kHz, providing the most satisfying music experience. Now available as an equalizer setting in the JLab app for the Epic Sport ANC 3, this curve has garnered widespread praise from both consumers and product reviewers following its success in the JLab Epic Lab Edition TWS earbuds.
“Working with Knowles again on a new Sport model, the Epic Sport ANC 3, has allowed us to create our best-sounding sport earbuds yet," says Win Cramer, CEO of JLab. "The inclusion of Knowles’ Balanced Armatures delivers unmatched clarity and power, setting a new standard in audio performance for true wireless sport earbuds. This is the best sounding sport earbud ever made and we’re super proud of it."
“We’re proud to work with JLab on another incredible sounding true wireless earbud that brings consumers an accessible listening experience that packs a punch,” says Jon Kiachian, President of MedTech and Specialty Audio at Knowles Corporation. “A testament to the expertise of both companies in the audio industry, this cooperation underscores our commitment to delivering cutting-edge solutions that redefine the listening experience for consumers.”
The JLab Epic Sport ANC 3 True Wireless Earbuds are available in the US for $99.99, and Europe for €119.99 at www.jlab.com and other online retailers.
