The new true wireless earbuds feature 12.4mm Hi-Res audio drivers, support for LHDC audio transmission, and up to 50dB active noise cancellation. One of the more common terms thrown around today when buying audio equipment is “hi-fi” or high fidelity. These days though that has changed, a lot of consumer audio products out there, from earphones to headphones, throw the term hi-fi around. Digital music compresses music in a big way, they sacrifice audio quality for smaller file sizes so that users can have as many as they can in their devices. Even current streaming services offer a lossless tier, or premium tier so that users can listen to better quality sounding audio. Just like video formats, audio files also have different tiers of quality. Similar to 1080p on a TV, audio files can go up to 24-bit/192kHz, or even 32-bit/384kHz, don’t mind the numbers, it just means the higher the better. Ask any audiophile out there what is the exact definition of hi-fi and you’ll get different answers.
