Apple AirPods
Apple on the other hand has a neurosonic balance. The AirPods hold on to the approach that means no artificial boosting or enhancement of bass and treble. It gives off a feeling as though you’re listening to music with no intrusions or unrequested enhancement which can be largely appreciated.
They do somehow maintain impact. There’s subtlety with sophistication , and a more delicate sound and bugger contrasts are much more noticeable.
They do sometimes veer towards very high volumes and struggle to deliver on the highest pitches on songs but it’s still ok for the price tag.
