Softears Introduces The Volume S - A Remarkable Upgrade To The Volume

Softears presents the Volume S, a premium in-ear monitor featuring advanced driver technology and innovative design. This successor model of Volume combines active and passive dynamic drivers with balanced armature drivers and an advanced RC tuning network to deliver exceptional sound across the frequency spectrum. The Volume S provides an immersive and high-performance listening experience through its dual tuning modes and customisable audio settings, while providing superior comfort. The Softears Volume S delivers a premium audiophile experience that will enrich your music listening journey with exceptional fidelity and performance.

An Exceptional Evolution In Driver Technology For Pure Audio

Softears Volume S features upgraded driver technology that builds upon its predecessor, the Volume. It replaces composite units with two independent balanced armature drivers for high and mid frequencies, each with separate output pathways. This advancement delivers clearer treble and fuller mids. The IEM also incorporates an active and passive dynamic driver combination for purer, more powerful bass reproduction.

Boasts Active + Passive Dynamic Driver For Superior Sound Quality

The Volume S features a 10mm silicone active dynamic driver with a titanium dome and a speaker system-like silicone suspension design, delivering long excursion and low distortion. It also incorporates a 6mm passive dynamic driver with a wool-based diaphragm, cleverly inverted and positioned at the active bass driver's dome. This design effectively filters unwanted frequencies outside the bass range, ensuring clean and powerful bass reproduction. The wool material provides an ideal balance of flexibility and mass to absorb excess vibrations, while the titanium dome maintains superior rigidity for exceptional bass response. Together, this configuration delivers deep, impactful bass that enhances your musical experience.

Embeds Full-Range Classic ED+WBFK BA Drivers For High-Quality Audio

The Softears Volume S features classic high-frequency balanced armature drivers from the Etymotic ER4b and AKG K3003, equipped with a self-developed special diaphragm. Softears has always used full-range drivers in their tuning approach. These drivers harmonise the tonal balance, making the IEM sound more cohesive without disjointedness or disconnection.

Houses Low-Latency Conduits Technology For Accurate Sound Output

Softears aims to minimise signal path length and reduce bending angles, preserving sound details and enabling smooth, low-latency transmission across all frequencies. This design gives the Volume S superior phase alignment and consistency. With high phase coherence across frequencies, both high and low frequencies reach the ear in perfect sync. As a result, instruments and vocals are reproduced with natural placement, accurate tonality and precise imaging. This design also avoids the common crossover issues typically found in multi-driver or hybrid earphones, ensuring accurate spatial positioning of instruments and vocals through consistent phase alignment.

RC Tuning Network With Precisely Tuned Crossover For Exceptional Sound

Softears Volume S features an RC Tuning Network that provides a more powerful and full sound experience with high adaptability and ultra-low loss. It utilises 8 precisely tuned crossover components to filter and control frequency ranges. Through series and parallel connections of capacitors and resistors, the IEM achieves the necessary frequency response. The RC tuning network technology effectively filters excess signals and achieves even impedance distribution across the entire frequency range. This ensures stable sound quality regardless of front-end output impedance, delivering powerful and comprehensive audio playback.

Equips Strip Pressure Relief Technology To Relieve Ear Pressure & Produce Punchy Bass

Softears Volume S features a physical rear-chamber pressure release system paired with a patented front-chamber high-pass filter. This design creates powerful bass while preventing the ear pressure discomfort common in sealed earphones with dynamic drivers. The result is a comfortable fit that delivers natural, full bass reproduction.

Experience Enhanced Acoustic Performance With Full-Scale Sound Upgrade

Compared to its predecessor, the Volume S delivers significant audio improvements across the frequency range:
Bass: Enhanced energy provides full and more powerful sound with deeper extension.
Mids: A smoother, warmer midrange presentation for more emotional depth in vocals.
Treble: Optimised tuning reduced harshness while improving detail retrieval and clarity.

An Exceptional Evolution In Driver Technology For Pure Audio

Softears Volume S features upgraded driver technology that builds upon its predecessor, the Volume.

Treble: Optimised tuning reduced harshness while improving detail retrieval and clarity.

Customise Your Audio Experience With Dual Distinct Tuning Modes

Softears Volume S features two distinct tuning modes with separate crossover systems, switchable via a faceplate control. The first mode simulates a standard HRTF room acoustic system ideal for pop music, creating an immersive live performance experience. The second mode emulates a HiFi audio system with natural -6dB high-frequency attenuation, delivering a comfortable, fatigue-reducing listening experience perfect for symphonic and classical music.

Note: Use the included adjustment tool to gently rotate the switch. Do not use hard or sharp objects for adjustment, as this may cause permanent damage.

Bus Impedence - Innovative Key Concept Of Unique Sound Tuning Function

The Volume S introduces an innovative concept called bus impedance during its tuning process. This technology harmoniously adjusts the overall system response instead of modifying individual frequencies. Through this approach, they achieved perfect switching between Pop and Classical modes. In Pop mode, the Volume S delivers vivid and captivating high frequencies, while Classical mode offers a more balanced and fuller sound. This unique sound-tuning capability provides two distinct listening experiences—whether you prefer crisp, bright treble or deep, powerful bass, the Volume S adapts to your preferences.

Meticulously Designed With High-Quality Materials For Exquisite Look

Softears Volume S is meticulously designed with a panel crafted from two distinct materials. The base frame is made of aluminium alloy, precision CNC-machined on 5 axes with a sandblasted anodised finish for a smooth, matte texture. The centre is set with forged carbon fibre. Each carbon fibre piece undergoes multiple manufacturing processes from laying and stamping to temperature control, forging, and final CNC processing. The texture of each piece is unique. Depending on the viewing angle, light reflects differently, creating a bright, shimmering effect that showcases its distinct and exclusive design.

Perfectly Crafted With HEY GEARS 3D Printing Technology For Ultra-Comfort

Softears collaborated with professional 3D printing company HEY GEARS to optimise their IEM design. They collected information from thousands of ear contour data sets and years of experience with Custom In-Ear Monitors to create an ear cavity design that delivers superior sound quality and exceptional wearing comfort.

Comes With Upgraded Braided Paracord Cable For Enhanced Durability

Softears Volume S comes bundled with with 60 strands of pure copper cable. The newly upgraded, ultra-soft braided paracord structure, combined with the high-purity, oxygen-free copper wire core, delivers softness while offering excellent durability. The copper materials used in the wire and plugs are 100% made in China.

Seamless Connectivity With Interchangeable Plugs & 0.78mm 2-Pin Connectors

Volume S features custom 10µm ultra-dense gold-plated Interchangeable plugs with 3.5mm & 4.4mm termination and 2-pin 0.78mm connectors that offer significantly improved oxidation resistance and conductivity compared to similar products. These high-performance connectors enhance the quality of signal transmission, effectively ensuring accurate signal reproduction. They also allow seamless compatibility with a wide range of mainstream devices, making switching between them effortless.

Enhanced Comfort With UC & B-type Ear-tips

Softears Volume S includes two types of ear tips. The UC ear tips provide exceptional comfort for extended wear, offering superior canal fit and seal while delivering a clean treble and solid bass response. The B-type ear tips (Balanced tips) provide reference sound quality and were the standard tips used during Softears' development and tuning process.
