In the ever-evolving digital landscape, headphones have become an essential part of our daily routines, providing a personal and immersive auditory experience.
When seeking out new headphones, people often gravitate towards well-known brands with established reputations. However, Rapture Innovation Labs, a startup based in Karnataka, has introduced the Sonic Lamb, a premium headphone designed for audiophiles.
Having tested the Sonic Lamb headphones for several weeks, here is an in-depth review of their performance.
Sonic Lamb Price and Availability
The Sonic Lamb headphones are priced at ₹16,999 and can be purchased from the company's website. They are available in three colors: Obsidian Black, Ember Gray, and Moonstone White.
Design and Comfort
The Sonic Lamb headphones are designed for comfort, featuring a flexible headband with substantial cushioning at the top. The vegan leather used for cushioning is of high quality, ensuring no irritation during use. They also include a USB Type-C port for charging, an audio port for a detachable boom microphone, and buttons for controlling calls and music playback.
Audio Performance
The headphones are equipped with 27mm impulse drivers for frequencies between 20 to 120Hz and 40mm dynamic drivers for frequencies above 120Hz. The hybrid driver acoustics combine air conduction and bone conduction. The 27mm impulse drivers manage bone conduction, while the 40mm dynamic drivers handle air conduction, allowing users to both hear and feel the music.
The Wooferpads convert the bone conduction impulses from the 27mm impulse drivers into physical sensations through the earcups, acting like subwoofers.
Modes
Hear Mode: Offers a balanced sound signature, suitable for soft music, calls, meetings, podcasts, and more. It emphasizes vocals and provides a balanced audio experience.
Feel Mode: Enhances the bass, making it ideal for bass-heavy songs.
Immerse Mode: Provides a powerful bass with active subwoofer effects, perfect for genres like RAP, EDM, hip hop, and more.
Beast Mode: Maximizes bass and includes vibrations from the Wooferpads, designed for action-packed movies and gaming.
Battery Life
The Sonic Lamb headphones feature a 1,400mAh battery rechargeable via USB Type-C. A full charge takes around two hours, and just 10 minutes of charging offers up to six hours of music playback. A full charge can provide up to 42 hours of usage in Hear Mode and up to 12 hours in Beast Mode.
Verdict
The Sonic Lamb headphones are impressive, especially for a debut product from a new company. They offer excellent build quality, comfort, and a superb audio experience. Although an improved app is needed, the provided buttons allow for sufficient control. The sound customization is well-executed, a feature that many premium headphones struggle to deliver effectively. Ultimately, Sonic Lamb is a premium choice for audiophiles willing to invest in high-quality headphones.
