Product Features

The first ear cuff-type earphones with MEMS hybrid dual drivers

Hybrid dual-driver configuration. The MEMS speaker is used in the high frequency range to achieve ultra-high frequency reproduction of 100 KHz or higher, and even with open-type earphones, ultra-wideband reproduction that can withstand music appreciation is achieved.


■Unique driver configuration optimized for ear cuff type

Optimal acoustic design has been achieved even for ear cuff type earphones, where the space for drivers tends to be narrow. The MEMS speaker for the high frequency range is placed on the same axis as the dynamic driver, but at a distance from the dynamic driver to ensure the acoustic space necessary for low frequency reproduction, which is important for open-type earphones. Furthermore, the phase of each diaphragm is aligned so that they move in phase, and the high frequency range, which is important for reproducing a sense of localization of music, is radiated directly into the ear by the side-radiating MEMS speaker, preventing phase shift between the high and low frequency ranges.


■New dynamic driver designed for open-type earphones

The dynamic driver for mid-range and low-frequency reproduction is the newly developed "NUARL DRIVER O" (officially called "O" with a stroke), using NUARL's first elliptical large-diameter diaphragm, which is damped on the surface of the PEEK+PU composite diaphragm to suppress unwanted vibrations and achieve excellent low-frequency reproduction. The surface of the PEEK+PU composite diaphragm is damped to suppress unwanted vibrations and achieve excellent low frequency reproduction. The MEMS speaker, which is responsible for the high frequency range, provides a smooth sound connection with the PEEK+PU composite diaphragm.


Micro sound slits to suppress sound leakage

The uniquely shaped micro aperture sends sound in a straight line into the ear canal, thereby suppressing reflection and diffusion of reproduced sound and reducing sound leakage.


■Flexible arm

The arm portion of the ear cuff has a double-layered structure using two types of materials: rigid and flexible. The flexible arm is easy to put on even with one hand, while the pressure feeling after putting on the ear cuff is suppressed, and the stability is maintained.


Comfortable to wear

Soft ear cushions are used on the part that touches the ear. The ear cushions are double-molded to provide a comfortable fit even after prolonged use. The ear cushions are integrated with the housing by double molding, so they will not peel off.


■Dual interface with vibration sensor and push button

A vibration sensor is mounted inside the earphones. Even with open-type earphones, stable operation of music can be performed. Push buttons are also provided for operations that require stability, such as switching functions and volume control.


Compatible with the "NUARL Connect "*1 smartphone app

The "NUARL Connect" app for iOS and Android devices allows users to change settings such as tone control, left-right balance adjustment, and earphone operation, as well as switch between functions such as voice boost and multipoint.


■Compatible with the live translation function of the AI smart app "Auralink "*2

Compatible with the "Auralink" AI smart app for both iOS and Android, the nuClip's microphone can be used to listen to AI translation of the language of the person whose voice is being collected, or to summarize the content of a remote meeting conversation for the record of the proceedings. A special free plan*6 is available exclusively for nuClip purchasers, which allows them to use the full functionality of Auralink for one year.


Three sound modes

In addition to the standard mode, which is similar to the sound image of canal-type earphones, "Voice Boost" mode and "Spatial Audio" mode are provided for open-type earphones. You can switch between these modes to enjoy the sound image of your choice.


Voice Boost Function

The "Voice Boost" function emphasizes only the bandwidth of the human voice when listening to audio content such as videos, podcasts, and ASMR. It is also ideal for making it easier to hear vocal sounds when listening to music in noisy places.


■Space Audio Function

Regardless of the format of the content, such as music or video, any sound source can reproduce a live-like presence with a natural sound spread. The open-type earphones provide a wide sound image that is typical of open-type earphones.


Low latency mode

A lower latency "gaming mode" is available. Wireless communication with minimal sound lag is possible regardless of the device being used, such as a PC or game console.


Hi-Res Wireless support

Supports LDAC, a high-quality sound wireless codec. It also supports ultra-high frequency reproduction up to 40 KHz, which is a prerequisite for Hi-Res Wireless compatible devices.


Compatible with smartphone operation*3

Tap on the earphones or press the physical buttons to control music playback (play/stop/song forward/backward), volume adjustment (UP/DOWN), and incoming calls (answer/reject/end) on your smartphone.


Multipoint connection support*4

The NUARL Connect application allows for a "multipoint" connection that can be used to listen to two devices at the same time. This is ideal for teleworking, such as remote conferencing.


Call Noise Cancellation

Equipped with two microphones on each side for call noise cancellation. This eliminates ambient noise during a call to ensure clear voice transmission to the person on the other end of the line.


Equipped with water resistance equivalent to IPX4

The inside of the earphones are treated with a nano-coating to repel water, making them IPX4 water-resistant, so you can use them with wet hands.


Wireless charging support

The earbuds can be charged wirelessly just by placing the case on the earbuds, and can be fully charged in about 1.5 hours from an empty state through a USB-C cable connection.
