The top of the range within the dynasty of premium headphones there are those capable of reproducing high definition sounds (Hi-Fi). These equipment manufactured by specialized audio brands, include the latest technological and ergonomic advances. Next, the best seven models that can be obtained in the country.

In this category, the new frontier is the True Wireless Stereo (TWS) which stand out for not having plastic or cables that bind the two channels together. Due to their freedom of movement, they are ideal for sports or travel use.

The big advantage of these professional-grade devices, which cost nearly twice as much as a generic TWS, is that their electronics are aligned to provide cleaner sound – filtering out echoes and interference – resulting in modulation more faithful to the original recording.

The devices selected are: Sony LinkBuds S, Skullcandy Dime True, Apple AirPods Pro, Jabra Elite 85t, Bose Sport Earbuds, Philips TAA7306BK and JBL Tune 230NC.

Sony LinkBud S

The special feature of these wireless hearing aid lines is the inclusion of a dedicated nanoprocessor which, among other things, is responsible for cleaning noise, covering the bitrate holes and highlighting the acoustic quality.

Since these headphones incorporate more than one driver, another of their functions is to distribute and equalize the information traveling through their ducts, to create surround and positioning sound, which improves reception.

Sony’s integrated V1 processor boosts noise cancellation and reduces distortion with less power for a distraction-free experience, ideal for use in high-density areas.

Using DSEE Extreme, which enhances digital music files and converts the sound source into HiFi sound in real time, so you can appreciate the fine details the artist has brought to the songs.

The LinkBuds S are compatible with Google’s new Fast Pair feature which allows you to easily connect with any Android device. They are compatible with the LE Audio standard, the next generation Bluetooth audio, ideal for gaming. They cost 29,999 pesos.

Skullcandy tell me true

The TWS are divided into two parts: the earphone set and the case, which acts as an additional charger. This piece with a magnetic opening, which doubles as a lid, includes a USB charging port and an LED light to monitor the charge level.

Therefore, to the autonomy of the channels, we must add the extent of your case. On average, a two-hour charge would allow between 6 and 10 hours of listening, a figure that could vary depending on use and volume.

Although Skullcandy’s case is extraordinarily small, they have a cumulative duration of 12 hour battery:. 3.5 on the earphones and 8.5 hours on the box.

When it comes to design, the holder box looks like the car’s electronic key, something that gives it a certain distinction. The way the headphones are stored is surprising, as the lid has two cutouts that reveal the front of the Dime. They cost 6,999 pesos.

Apple AirPods Pro

It is essential that the device is equipped with active noise cancellation system (ANC).

The secret of sound insulation lies in the capture of sound waves through one or more microphones integrated into the structure of the device. The aim is to generate an opposite wave so that the sum of both produces a much more attenuated wave and therefore is not annoying.

Each manufacturer develops their own technologies and not all of them are equally effective. To reduce costs, some resort to so-called passive cancellation, which is reduced by blocking external sound through sound insulation.

One of the novelties of the AirPods is active cancellation. This functionality is based on the ability to neutralize external noise while processing the interior. This detection is produced by an external microphone that emits a noise canceling signal.

Its magic is based on the H1 chip, located in each headset, which is responsible for wireless communications and maintains synchronization with the other channel. This chip optimizes power consumption. With the integration of 10 audio cores, resulting in 200 sound adjustments per second. There are 42 thousand pesos.

Jabra Elite Sport

As an added bonus, all of these devices include a proprietary app to customize each of the auditory details that make these models unique.

Because the sound is as subjective as it is personal, these hookup apps improve EQ bands, adjust bass levels, and can track down one of your headphones, just in case it’s gone.

An advantage of the Jabra Elite Sport is that once connected to the mobile phone, there is no need to reconnect, even if the Bluetooth has been removed. It is somewhat similar to AirPods. Just place them in the ear that the music is already listening to.

The headphones have two built-in sensors: one that analyzes physical activity and one for heart rate. The software, in addition to updating the firmware, allows you to configure different training plans. They cost 51,999 pesos.

Bose Sport earphones

In order for synchronization with the phone to be efficient and for power consumption to be drastically reduced, it is essential that the version of Bluetooth (BT) is from 5.0 onwards.

It was launched in 2016 and meant a revolution, as it doubled the transfer rate, quadrupled the range, and allowed for more data on each connection. The 5.1 (2019) lets you know the location of other devices and provides greater range.

The most recent is 5.2, or Bluetooth LE Audio, which improves the quality and power capacity. It is noteworthy for a new codec, the low complexity communication codec (LC3), which can compress data more effectively and send audio to multiple devices at the same time.

Bose sports headphones have BT 5.1, which offers a range of up to nine meters. It comes with a built-in dual microphone system located in the right ear cup.

They reach about 5 hours of battery life, while the case provides another 15 hours more. With fast charging, you can recover 2 hours of charge in 15 minutes. They use the USB-C port. There are 51,799 pesos.

Philips TAA7306BK

Since the in-ears are built into the ear, it is essential that they get a good grip and that they are comfortable for both internal wearers and joggers.

Not all people have the same crease in their ear, which is why these TWS have interchangeable pads with different thicknesses to ensure support and complete isolation from the outside.

To improve the grip, the Philips, in addition to the interchangeable tips, include some plastic hooks that prevent them from detaching during competitions or training.

And when it comes to hygiene, placing the headphones in the charging case triggers a UV cleaning cycle that kills up to 99% of bacteria. They are 25,399 pesos.

JBL Tune 230NC

They have an IPX4 rating for splash water protection and 40 hours of battery life – although with ANC activated this is reduced to 8 hours – making them suitable for everyday use, regardless of the weather or place. They use Bluetooth 5.2 and support the SBC and AAC Bluetooth codecs.

to incorporate four microphones that cancel out ambient noises and establish calls with excellent reception. Its Active Noise Canceling and Smart Ambient technology allows you to choose between disconnecting from the world or interacting with the environment.

In addition, these headphones are compatible with the My JBL Headphones app, which personalizes the listening experience through three modes: normal, audio and video. In turn, it creates a bubble of silence to increase concentration. In four colors: black, white, blue and sand. They are sold for 14,999 pesos.
