DESCRIPTION
INTRODUCING SONO: EXQUISITE SOUND IN A DURABLE SHELL
Sono by Shanling offers a rich audio experience with its meticulous design and advanced features. Crafted from cast zinc alloy, these earphones not only provide durability but also showcase a glossy finish, resembling the elegance of diamond earrings.
PRECISION DRIVERS FOR RICH SOUND QUALITY
Sono incorporates a pair of dynamic drivers in a coaxial design, surrounded by a trio of magnets, enhancing sensitivity and precision in low and midrange frequencies. The lightweight HCCAW voice coil further contributes to greater resolution and expressive sound quality. Additionally, a custom balanced armature driver, tailored to Shanling's high standards, serves as a treble driver, delivering extended highs with intricate details and a smooth profile.
BALANCED SOUND AND TUNING NOZZLES
The sound profile of Sono is finely tuned for a delightful listening experience. The balanced nozzle, marked by a black ring, offers a slightly warm tone with a modest bass boost, presenting a natural midrange and smooth treble. Alternatively, the bass nozzle, identified by a red ring, further intensifies the bass for an improved mid-bass kick and extended sub-bass reach, adding a layer of depth and transforming the sound into a full-on-fun mode. The interchangeable design of the nozzles allows users to customize the audio output based on their preferences.
ELEGANT DESIGN AND COMFORTABLE FIT
With its intricate metal construction, Sono showcases an exquisite appearance while ensuring robustness. The hand-polished cast zinc alloy contributes to a glossy finish, making these earphones not only sonically impressive but also visually stunning. The ergonomic design guarantees a comfortable fit for extended listening sessions, elevating the overall user experience.
EQUIPPED WITH CABLES AND BUNDLED WITH ACCESSORIES
Sono comes with an interchangeable cable design featuring an industry-standard 0.78mm 2-pin connector, providing users with the freedom to choose from various aftermarket cables. The included Hi-Sprade cables, constructed with silver-plated copper in a 4 x 32 configuration, ensure optimal signal transmission and durability. With metal parts and a gold-plated plug, these cables adhere to the established standards of Hi-Fi, offering a high-quality accessory to complement the earphones.
