Noble Audio - FoKus Mystique

I have these and absolutely love them but wouldn’t go around recommending them to most people lol the Mystique is what I’d recommend.

The Noble FoKus Mystique is $360, the Prestige is $600.

Yea I agree, I’d never come out and recommend the Prestige to anyone but someone that only cares about sound quality, and price point doesn’t really matter. Even then I’d recommend the Mystique first. I’m heavily biased but for “the best” in sound quality I have to recommend the Noble Mystique. What is “The best” is so subjective it’s an impossible question to answer however.

When traveling, Apple Airpods Max if I can spare the space, as they are very comfortable on a 12+ hour flight, otherwise Etymotic ER4-SR in-ear monitors. The Sony WH-1000XM series are pretty good, with the XM3 and XM4 folding down very compact, sadly the XM5 no longer does, but the imminent XM6 might go back on that regression. EDC, I can never get Airpods Pro to stick in my ears, so Noble Fokus Mystique true wireless in-ear monitors. Very good sound quality and sufficient isolation to not require active noise cancellation.

Noble FoKus Mystique are the best sounding IMO, but they do lack features like ANC. However if you’re just after audio quality, they are the ones to get

Noble FoKus Prestige are the best I’ve ever heard, out of all the premium buds. I just preordered the Rex5 set to test those out as well, but they use a FoKus app on your phone where you can customize your EQ settings and really punch up the bass if that’s what you want

Not sure why this got downvoted. For pure sound the Noble Fokus series seem to be a cut above.

Noble Audio makes best sounding ones, Fokus Triumph is amazing but no ANC so not as high demand + even with lower demand they are always sold out, can't keep, meanwhile $50 Moondrop Moca are imo better than any of the stuff in this list, ANC is not the best but it's usable
