There are earbuds and over-ear headphones that articulate to position themselves into your ear to create a magnificent sound. The in-ear piece measures hearing and plays mostly mid and high tones. The Nura headphones connect to a listening device via a lightning connector or a USB connector that avoids converting a digital signal to an analog signal. The headphones will even have a charging port at the bottom of one of the cups that will allow a listener to relay their charging cable to their phone.
Personalized Sound
Sound and hearing are very hard to objectively self-assess. Audiophiles are skilled in the art, but this takes them years of experience.
Nura sounds too good to be true with profiles for left and right ears based on sensitivity to different sound frequencies. The newly equalized version of headphones comes with great balance, and the instrumentation is extremely clear. It has a special “Kick It” mode that increases the bass to powerful levels in contact with your skin with crystal clear sound.
