In recent years, open headphones have gradually become mainstream in the market. The biggest feature of this design is that it does not enter the ear, providing a more transparent and comfortable wearing experience, especially when worn for a long time, there will be no compression feeling commonly seen in earplugs and headphones. At the same time, when using open headphones outdoors, users can clearly hear environmental sounds, which undoubtedly adds safety to urban commuting or outdoor sports. However, due to its open design, it is difficult to isolate noise in noisy environments, which has deterred many headphone enthusiasts who value noise reduction experience from using open headphones.
However, this situation has seen a new breakthrough with the release of an open earphone in October this year. As an international intelligent acoustics brand, Cleer cleverly combines open design with active noise reduction function to launch this new open noise reduction earphone - Cleer ARC 3 Sound Arc Open AI Earphone Noise Reduction Edition. It not only continues the comfortable wearing experience of open earphones, but also innovatively uses AI chips to achieve breakthroughs in noise reduction, making it a revolutionary product in the open earphone industry.
Next, let's delve into the actual user experience of this earphone and see how it achieves noise reduction without sacrificing open comfort?
Noise reduction is no longer a patent for enclosed headphones
When it comes to the Cleer ARC 3 Sound Arc Denoising Edition, what people are most interested in is undoubtedly its noise reduction effect. After all, in the eyes of the public, open headphones and noise cancellation seem to be incompatible. So how did this headphone break this "iron rule"?
Firstly, the Cleer ARC 3 adopts the all-new Greenwaves Gap 9 AI chip. This high-performance chip not only brings powerful computing power, but also combines advanced AI noise reduction algorithms to achieve a breakthrough in noise reduction. When the chip receives environmental noise data, it will perform real-time analysis at a super high sampling rate of 768kHz. By accurately calculating the noise spectrum in the environment, it can dynamically adjust the coefficients of the noise reduction filter and reduce noise at different frequencies in a targeted manner. According to official data, this earphone can achieve a noise reduction effect of -15dB.
It has to be said that Cleer ARC 3 has played a new trick in noise reduction. Compared to traditional active noise reduction, the advantage of this AI active noise reduction technology is that it can not only adjust the noise reduction amplitude, but also maintain sensitivity to different environments. For example, in relatively quiet environments such as offices, headphones will reduce noise reduction intensity and retain more background sound; In noisy streets or subways, AI chips will automatically enhance noise reduction capabilities, filtering out low-frequency interference as much as possible, allowing you to focus on music or calls. This process is fully automated, and users do not need to perform any manual operations. The chip automatically adjusts according to changes in environmental noise, ensuring clear sound quality and comfortable auditory experience in different scenarios.
In addition, the Cleer ARC 3 Sound Arc Noise Reduction Edition cleverly integrates AI noise reduction technology and user-friendly design, providing flexible choices in three levels of noise reduction, specifically designed to bring users a more comfortable listening experience. Traditional noise cancelling headphones usually focus on "noise cancelling depth", but deep noise cancelling may lead to increased ear pressure, and different users have varying levels of sensitivity to ear pressure. To this end, Cleer has designed three levels of noise reduction based on user feedback: high, medium, and low, combined with adaptive algorithms, allowing users to easily choose the noise reduction mode that suits them whether on high-speed trains, subways, or open office scenes, while enjoying more focused listening and purer sound quality.
Noise reduction without sound insulation, initial experience of open noise reduction
Although the technical description may sound cool, the actual wearing experience is the most touching part. The biggest feeling when wearing the Cleer ARC 3 Sound Arc Denoising Edition for the first time was "quiet"! But this is not the feeling of complete isolation from the outside world that enclosed headphones bring, but a subtle balance - external noise is no longer harsh, but important alert sounds can still be perceived, such as car honking on the street or subway station announcements.
This "breathable noise reduction" makes people feel at ease when using outdoors. At the same time, persistent low-frequency noise such as the buzzing of air conditioning in the office and the typing of colleagues' keyboards are effectively filtered, like installing a noise filter in the ear to make music and calls clearer.
After some experience, this "noise reduction without sound insulation" design allows users to enjoy high-quality audio experience while maintaining attention to the surrounding environment. It has to be said that its considerations and technological breakthroughs in noise reduction are worthy of praise.
However, although noise cancelling headphones can provide a clean auditory experience, many users worry that strong noise cancelling will weaken the purity of music? Especially in open earphones, achieving a balance between noise reduction and sound quality has become a key challenge for the Cleer ARC 3 Sound Arc Denoising Edition.
Bi directional upgrade of sound quality and noise reduction
Fortunately, the Cleer ARC 3 sound arc did not disappoint. It not only has excellent performance in noise reduction technology, but also has stunning sound quality. It integrates Dolby sound effects and head tracking technology into open headphones for the first time in the world, allowing each note and detail to be accurately located in the virtual space around the user, making the user feel like they are in the sound environment of a recording studio or cinema. Whether it is human voice dialogue, instrument performance, or background sound effects, they can be presented to the audience in a more natural and full state.
Especially when used in conjunction with head tracking technology, the sound effects will adjust as your head rotates, making the sound seem to exist around you - this is a new immersive experience, especially when watching movies or playing games, you will feel like you are in it.
Simply put, these two technologies enable you to experience an immersive 'spatial sound effect' while listening to music or watching videos. Headphones can adjust the direction of sound according to the movement of your head, allowing you to feel the surround effect of sound, as if you are in a concert or movie scene.
It can be said that the ARC 3 Sound Arc Denoising Edition has achieved excellent integration in the balance between noise reduction and sound quality. Many noise cancelling headphones may lose the dynamic range and details of the sound when the noise cancelling mode is turned on. But Cleer uses intelligent algorithms controlled by AI chips and the addition of Dolby sound effects to maintain sound quality stability while reducing noise. This means that even when noise reduction is turned on, you can still feel a high fidelity sound quality experience, where the delicacy, layering, and even tiny details in the music can be clearly displayed.
In other words, the ARC 3 Sound Arc Denoising Edition not only achieved a breakthrough in noise reduction, but also achieved a new upgrade in sound quality, achieving industry-leading levels in terms of spatial and immersive sound. Whether you are enjoying high-quality music or immersing yourself in watching TV shows or playing games in a quiet environment, this earphone can bring you an unprecedented auditory experience.
To be honest, the Cleer ARC 3 Sound Arc Open AI Earphone Noise Reduction Edition has given me many surprises and is one of the few headphone products on the market that combines intelligence and innovation. If you are looking for an open earphone that is both comfortable and has noise reduction capabilities, while also providing high-quality sound effects, the Cleer ARC 3 Sound Arc Noise Reduction Edition is undoubtedly a very worthwhile choice to buy.
At present, the Cleer ARC 3 sound arc noise reduction version has been launched in the official flagship store of Cleer Tiktok, and interested friends can go to order experience!
