Audio46's Opinion
The soundstage of the FoKus Rex5 offers a more intimate and focused presentation, with audio positioned closer to the listener rather than extending into a wide spatial field. It achieves a well-balanced low end that is powerful without overwhelming the rest of the sound signature. Many IEMs with active noise cancellation tend to overemphasize bass frequencies, but Noble Audio has struck a fine balance here. The midrange on the FoKus Rex5 stands out for its exceptional detail and tonal accuracy, and the treble preformance is both bright and detailed, offering a complementary counterbalance to the warmth of the bass. The companion app also offers an intuitive adjustable equalizer (EQ), with a sliding scale that lets users toggle between brighter and bass-forward tonalities.

Personalized Sound with Audiodo
Revolutionizing sound customization, the FoKus Rex5 integrates Audiodo’s advanced sound personalization software. The calibration process adjusts audio output based on the sensitivity of each ear, offering an individually tailored listening experience.
Thanks to the QCC3091 chip, the personalized sound profile is stored directly on the earbuds, eliminating the need for the app once setup is complete. This innovation ensures consistent, balanced sound across all devices.
Who is Audiodo?
Audiodo is a group of innovators disrupting the standards of the audio electronics industry from a sound lab in the south of Sweden. Collectively they have been pushing the boundaries of Personal Sound.
Personal Sound is constantly developed to allow for new solutions and applications. The current technology departs from a simple hearing assessment. Audiodo tests your left and right ear separately through the app, calculate where and how strong any adjustments should be, and apply only the necessary changes. Voila, you can now hear like you’ve never heard before.
The technology that drives Audiodo Personal Sound™ is a non-replicable set of sophisticated algorithms and an intricate mosaic of code. But on the surface, you’ll find an easy-to-use tool that quickly and effortlessly transforms the listening experience of each and every user.
Feature-Rich Design with Intuitive Functionality
The FoKus Rex5 excels in both performance and usability:
- Battery Life: Enjoy 7 hours of playback (ANC off) or 5 hours (ANC on), with an additional 40 hours provided by the charging case. A quick 15-minute charge offers up to 2 hours of playtime.
- Noise Control Modes: Switch between ANC, Transparency, and Basic modes to suit your environment.
- Multipoint Connectivity: Seamlessly switch between two connected devices.
- On-Device Memory: Store EQ settings and sound profiles for a hassle-free experience across devices.
Enhanced Listening with Balanced Sound
Audiodo’s technology personalizes the sound for each ear individually, ensuring a centered, even listening experience. This feature is especially beneficial for users with uneven hearing loss, offering a more balanced and natural sound.
Noble FoKus App: Customizable EQ at Your Fingertips
The Noble FoKus app offers a highly intuitive EQ for effortless sound adjustments. In addition to the 10-band equalizer, the app’s user-friendly interface allows you to further refine your audio preferences, ensuring you get the perfect sound every time.
Personalized Sound with Memory Capability
Equipped with the QCC3091 chip, each earbud saves the personalized sound profile directly on the device. This means your tailored sound and EQ settings remain consistent whether you’re using the app or switching to a different device, providing an uninterrupted personalized listening experience.
