Key Features
The Noble Khan is a hand-assembled, Tri-Level Hybrid In-ear monitor that produces an all-conquering signature sound. Playback your music exactly how it was recorded in extreme detail and delicacy thanks to the six drivers consisting of four balanced armature drivers for balanced mid-range, a 10MM dynamic driver providing an extended bass response that spares no weight and a piezoelectric driver producing the crystal clear top end.
An industry first, the Khan's feature a handcrafted M3 composite "Mokume Gane" faceplate, which results in a unique pattern for every IEM. a Japanese metal-working procedure that results in a mixed-metal laminate with a distinctively layered pattern. In this case, the M3 composite is a collage or a swirl of black and whites on the Khan and very distinctive looking it is also. The M3 composite face plate on every set of Khan's is absolutely unique and you will have a very hard time finding two models that look the same. This unique design adds to the prestige of the Khans to ensure the reputation is not challenged by any who try.
Please Note: Note that for certain smartphones, some are insufficiently shielded for the Khan. Please use the included 3.5mm adapter included.

The signature sound of the Noble Khan is a mature and natural presentation that brings neutrality without sounding too dull or lifeless. For audiophiles, this ability that the Khans display creates the perfect balance that others have not yet achieved, giving validity to their title of Khan, the king of kings.
The detailed tuning of the Khans creates a gentle U-shaped frequency response, which retains the natural timbre that carries weight without sounding lean. With a focus on the quality of each component and driver, the Khan does not go down the rabbit hole of adding more drivers than is needed. What surrounds the driver and how they are blended together is a very important feature that can often be overlooked. The Khan features a proprietary 10mm dynamic driver that pushes a strong fundamental and impactful sub-bass and low-bass, a Knowles balanced armature driver specially made to reproduce a strong midrange and a specialised 10MM Piezoelectric driver to produce crystal clear, crisp top end without ever sounding splashy.
Boasting a high 109dB of SPL with a nominal impedance of 19 ohms, you will not need to send the Khans into overdrive to get the best out of their performance at suitable volume levels. Background hiss and distortion are kept to a minimum, even when using a high-quality DAP with generous amounts of gain.
The piezoelectric driver brings realism into the top end of the most complex of instruments and music. Providing an excellent level of vocal clarity and intimacy, you can experience fast, energetic highs that are still incredibly clean. The Khan does an excellent job at providing a detailed, rich brightness without suffering any harsh sibilance. Veering slightly on the dry side in the top end, listen to how the Khan showcases a driving vocal performance by a female singer or the detail in electric guitar solo playing.
The Bass is well controlled and offers great texture transmission and instrument separation in dynamic style with solid weight and thickness. The 10mm Dynamic driver produces deep bass and due to the lack of the accent on the mids, the lower bass is greatly revealed in a natural manner and plays back exactly how the recording artist intended. The neutrality of the Khan means that no low-end is lost, providing sub-bass rumble that creates a superb foundation for the sound to stand on.
Provided a Peli 1010 case, your Khans can stay protected. The Peli 1010 is a superb weatherproof carry case that will give the Khan tons of protection from knocks as well as leave room for cables and tips. The carabiner lock means you can hang safely from most bags and rucksacks for on the go.
Also included with the Khans are the Noble braided cable and Noble Lightning adapter for use with iPhone's. The cord uses a two-pin configuration and is detachable for people who would like to use other brand aftermarket cables. The cable is finished with a heat shrink wrap but it is not retentive memory wire. The cable has a pre-defined shape that bends to accommodate but then snaps back into place once you take it off your ear. The rigidity of this cable ensures that you may never need to purchase a replacement, further defining the reputation of the Khan. The y-split barrel is an attractive chrome-finished aluminium semi-oval barrel that blends with both the driver housings and the two-tone colour of the cable itself.
The signature Noble housing design is made clear by the form-fitting contours and elongated nozzle. The nozzle ends are topped with aluminium to ensure complete sound isolation. This is ideal for those who want elite level performance even when out and about or travelling. A small dynamic driver port or vent at the corner of the faceplate allows the Khans to breathe. This ensures that it is unlikely to ever block it and reduce the performance of the driver over time.
The elongated nozzle will keep the main body from putting uncomfortable pressure on your concha basis or touching your ears unnecessarily, avoiding any discomfort and allowing you to enjoy your music for long periods.
