In-ear earphones
Get it For: Rs 14,999

1More is one of the prominent brands when it comes to premium audio. The company launched a triple driver earphone last year, which we highly recommended. Their latest offering is the world’s first earphones to feature quad drivers. Moreover, these earphones are tuned by Grammy-winning sound engineer Luca Bignardi.


In layman terms, quad drivers would translate to the equivalent of having four speakers in each ear. Keep in mind that these are the world’s first THX-certified headphones. THX certification is given after passing rigorous audio tests. In technical terms, each earbud contains a primary carbon dynamic driver and triple balanced armatures, along with a PET diaphragm layer and a diamond-like carbon film layer. What this means is that each driver delivers crystal clear output — in total, the headphones can deliver up to 40,000Hz frequency.

The audio output from these headphones will be appreciated by general users as well as audiophiles. The sound output detail is so good that you will be able to identify each instrument playing in a song. Even for a song that you listen on a daily basis, you will notice new details in the audio that you would miss with standard headphones. The quad driver setup delivers deep bass, balanced highs and audio output with unmatched detail. Anyone moving from a single or even dual driver headphone will immediately notice and appreciate the bump in audio quality.

It's not just the audio that is premium on the 1More quad driver headphones, even the build quality justifies the price. The earbuds have a metal body with red accents to make them stand out. It has a tangle-resistant cable wrapped in Kevlar fibre with metal in-line control buttons. 1More says that the cable has oxygen-free copper wire so that there is no audio loss. You get 9 ear-tip sizes in the box, a premium leather carry case and a matching shirt clip. We found the earphones comfortable to wear for long durations.

The headphones are compatible with Android as well as iOS device. It has a built-in chip that identifies the connected phone/tablet and the in-line controls work according to the device for volume/track adjustment and accepts/disconnect voice calls. We used the headphones with an Apple iPhone 8 Plus, an LG G7 Plus ThinQ and an Apple MacBook Pro for both audio and video.

In our opinion, if sound quality is what matters to you and you don’t mind paying for it, the 1More quad driver earphone should be on the top of your list.
