A first for Noble Audio, the Falcon TWS sees Wizard and Co. dropping cables for a Bluetooth 5.0 true wireless earphone.  With Qualcomm aptX and Truewireless Stereo Plus, this earphone seems to embody its prestigious pedigree.

At the heart of this true wireless earphone sits a dual carbon layered driver, tuned by Wizard himself.  And while audiophiles should be resting on tenterhooks to try this earphone, it appears just as competent from a consumer standpoint.

With 10 hours of battery life and fast charging, the Falcon TWS delivers 2 hours of play time on just 15 minutes of charging.  But it also sports automatic on/off power modes and automatic pairing.  A master-slave setup offers one-ear listening, and Noble has developed a proprietary app for the earphone, too.

The Noble Audio Falcon TWS will retail for $156 and will begin shipping in 4-6 weeks (mid-to-late November 2019).

Drawing stylistically from the high-contrast monkey-suit, the Tux 5 features a similar design to Noble’s flagship Khan.  It utilizes a single 10 mm dynamic driver and a quartet of Knowles BA drivers.  Housing takes the form of glossy black acrylic, with one ear sporting the Noble crown logo and the other bearing the Wizard signature.

Cabling adds to the piano-black feel, with white and black cabling intertwining and then splitting at the yoke.  This look allows for foolproof identification on the go, allowing you to separate left from right in a flash.  Internally, this cable features 8-core OCC copper for impressive fidelity.

Retailing at $1299, the Tux 5 will be available from Noble and authorized dealers by mid-November 2019.

Prestige Universal

Rounding out the latest Noble news, the Prestige IEM has gone universal.  Made from exotic Wizard Wood, carbon glass, and M3 composite, this beautiful earphone spares no expense.  Furthermore, thanks to variations in the appearance of the wood used, each one sports a unique appearance.
Current emphasis rests on turning Noble Khan earphones into Prestige Universal IEMs, but Kaiser Encore and Katana units may also get the Prestige treatment in the future.
Taking 3-4 weeks to complete the process, the Prestige upgrade service will be offered as an option for existing Khan Universal owners.  This upgrade process will cost $2000 and customers will need to ship their earphone back to Noble for re-shelling.  However, folks who want to purchase the Prestige Universal outright can do so at a price of $3999.
