Cambridge Audio, the revered British brand with a legacy in audiophile-grade hardware since 1968, has just announced the Melomania A100—its most advanced wireless earbuds to date. Combining decades of high-fidelity expertise with modern tech, the A100 are engineered to deliver what the brand calls its “award-winning signature sound” in a sleek, compact, and comfortable form factor.Unlike the Melomania M100, which featured a stemless design, the new A100 opts for a stemmed shape reminiscent of AirPods, blending familiar ergonomics with Cambridge’s distinct sound-first design philosophy.
High-Fidelity Hardware in a Compact Form
The Melomania A100 packs in custom-tuned 10mm drivers paired with Class AB amplification—a rare find in wireless earbuds, and a nod to the brand’s analog audio roots. This unique combination aims to deliver the authentic “Cambridge Sound,” characterized by clarity, warmth, and dynamic balance.To offer a personalized listening experience, the earbuds include a seven-band adjustable EQ with six genre-specific presets and fully customizable sound profiles. The onboard “DynamEQ” feature ensures balanced sound even at lower volumes, adapting in real time to maintain musical integrity.
Smart Features: Touch Controls, ANC, and Dual Connectivity
The A100 includes touch-sensitive controls that are fully user-configurable via the redesigned Melomania Connect app, now available on both iOS and Android.Each earbud features six microphones, used for crystal-clear calls, active noise cancellation (ANC), and transparency mode—giving users full control of their audio environment.
The earbuds also feature Bluetooth 5.4 with multi-device pairing, allowing users to seamlessly switch between two connected devices.
Battery Life Built for Extended Listening
Cambridge Audio promises up to 39 hours of total battery life, with 11 hours per charge (ANC off) or 6.5 hours (ANC on). The charging case adds 28 more hours, and a 10-minute quick charge yields up to 3 hours of playback—perfect for those on the go.Hi-Res Wireless Audio Support
The Melomania A100 stands out for its broad codec support, including LDAC, aptX Lossless, aptX Adaptive, AAC, and SBC. This allows users to stream high-resolution, uncompressed audio wirelessly from platforms like Tidal, Qobuz, or Apple Music Lossless.
Designed for Real Life
With an IPX5 water resistance rating, the A100 is resistant to sweat, dust, and light rain, making it a reliable companion for workouts, commutes, and unpredictable weather.The updated Melomania Connect app offers firmware updates, EQ tuning, and device control with a cleaner, more intuitive interface—further enhancing the user experience.
