Instruments and vocals in genres such as rock, metal and even indie sound like they're fighting for room which causes compression to kick in. The details are there, but they often sound crunchy, fuzzy and tinny, and even become a bit hollow at times. There's a bass boost function that kicks this up a notch and yet remarkably, the A-Series still holds it together despite the skull shaking capabilities of some tunes.īut the mid and high range frequencies aren't quite as robust. The listening experience isn't all that exciting as a result and you probably won't be inspired to bust into spontaneous headbanging when "Bohemian Rhapsody" reaches its climax.īass is the big sell here, with solid low-end that can produce a full-bodied feel with no audible distortion. Equalisation is pretty flat and there seems to be volume normalisation going on which can make big booming drum solos sound the same as lilting flutes. The A-Series Pixel Buds are perfectly fine for the average set of ears. Claimed battery life is measured with additional features such as bass boost and HD audio turned off. Unlike the higher-end Pixel Buds released last year, there's no wireless charging in the A-Series.
