The HBS-FN7 and HBS-FN6 from the latest LG TONEFREE range feature technology from Meridian Audio, the renowned British audio technology company and LG’s trusted partner in delivering superior sound. Powered by Digital Signal Processing, a technology that Meridian has been perfecting for over 25 years, the LG TONEFREE FN7 not only recreates a realistic soundstage that simulates the experience of listening to real loudspeakers but also delivers vocals with pristine clarity, completely immersing the listener. Accessible through the LG TONEFREE app available for both Android and iOS devices, Meridian’s EQ sound settings provide an elevated listening experience via four customized presets to suit the listener’s musical taste: Natural for a clean, balanced sound, Immersive for a more three-dimensional performance, Bass Boost for extra power and depth and Treble Boost to bring greater clarity to vocals. The newly designed LG TONEFREE FN7 also delivers fuller, richer bass with high-quality silicone-infused drivers, a dome featuring a stronger metal layer, and denser texture dampers for better resolution of mid-high frequencies.
The more advanced LG TONEFREE FN7 comes with Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), specially engineered to reduce high-frequency noise encountered on a daily basis. It builds on the already great passive noise isolation of LG TONEFREE FN7 by neutralizing external urban sounds using three microphones in each earbud that monitor soundwaves coming from all directions. Adjustable ear gels with patented twist-fit Vortex Ribs design deliver a tighter in-ear seal to minimize outside noise seepage and provide maximum comfort, by even distribution of pressure and allowing them to adapt to all ear shapes. With specialized ANC activated, environmental noises are now almost completely neutralized, making every note and voice sound clearer, more natural, without losing the details from turning up the volume to maximum.
