Jakob Aylesbury / 10 months ago
JLab are a US based tech company who have today launched their new Premium Epic Lab Edition Earbuds marking their most premium product to date leveraging some of the latest in wireless audio technology.
JLab Epic Lab Edition Earbuds
The new Epic Lab Edition earbuds boast a hybrid dual-driver design, incorporating a dynamic driver for rich bass and low frequencies, and a Knowles Balanced Armature driver for exquisite high frequencies. They are the first true wireless earbuds to feature the Knowles preferred listening response curve, a treble expanded sound signature designed with extensive feedback from a broad range of music listeners. Alongside all of this other features include smart active noise cancelling, Hi-Res audio, Spatial audio, and Bluetooth LE capabilities.
The earbuds come within a premium aluminium charging case which charges through either wireless charging or a USB-C cord. This charge case allows for up to 56+ hours of total play time (13 hours in each earbud) or 36 hours with ANC enabled. Each of the headphones can be used independently of one another as well. For your comfort there are also 6 tips included S/M/L in silicone and S/M/L in cloud foam.
What JLab Had to Say
“For the Epic Lab Edition, I tasked our engineering team with creating something that brought exceptional sound quality to market and still offered an incredible value compared to similarly priced earbuds. We’ve shown the world the amazing things that can be done in the under $100 category, and now we’re going full throttle with our most premium sound experience yet,” commented JLab CEO Win Cramer. “JLab’s Epic Lab Edition elevates our portfolio of audio products with new technologies, including specialized balanced armature drivers to match the Knowles Preferred Listening Response Curve, something no other brand has right now.”
