The JBL Pro 3 headsets are equipped with two drivers per headphones. The balanced reinforcement driver ensures clear reproduction of high frequencies, while the 10.2 millimeter speaker driver is responsible for dynamics and bass. The Pro 3 Tour supports Hi-Res without wireless audio with LDAC, but it is only Android feature that is not available for Apple devices.
The pro 3 round has a total of six microphones, which are controlled by the JBL Crystal AI algorithm. Two external microphones on each head of headphones and transmit the voice, while an internal microphone isolates the noise. Wind test design prevents distortion in windy conditions. The call equalizer allows you to adjust your sound with precision, and the sound level optimizer reduces strong sounds and amplifies calm sounds. The JBL Tour Pro 3 is also certified at the zoom. The result is good intelligibility, but natural suffers from circuits.
The real cancellation of adaptive noise 2.0 of headphones JBL Tour Pro 3 analyzes the environment and adjusts sound in real time. The application of JBL headphones can be used to regulate the quantity or the little ambient noise. An additional set of foam ear pads improves passive isolation. In practice, the ANC impresses with effective noise cancellation which has a minimum impact on sound. JBL's in -depth experience is obvious here.
Algorithms can do more than ANC and ensure its own sound. If you wish, the pro 3 round can recognize that the wearer speaks and changes music to take a break and activate the mode of transparency. This allows you to hold a conversation without removing the headphones. This is unusual at first, but the more you use it, the better you use this function.
The application also allows you to personalize the sound and offers various parameters. For example, the cancellation of adaptive noise can be adjusted to the shape of your ears. Or the ambient noise control parameters can be optimized. You can also make a better fit and find the headphones using a strong tone. The gesture control parameters for the tactile surface are of course also included. Overall, the adjustment options are among the most extensive on the market.
The Sound Spatial 360 JBL function transforms stereo sound into a 360 -degree experience with the follow -up of the head, according to which sound changes according to the movement of the head. This is also impressive, although I prefer to turn it off because I find it unusual.
Up to 44 hours of musical reading are possible. With ANC deactivated, 11 hours of reading plus three additional costs with the load case are made, while with AC activated, 8 hours plus three additional full charges with the load box are available. A 10 -minute fast load also allows three overtime musical reading hours. The load folder can also be billed wireless, which will appeal to users of 3 in 1 charging stations in particular.
Intelligent charge case
The intelligent load case has a large touch screen that displays the status and the commands of the pro 3 tower. The case has an audio adapter, and the sound of any source to where USB-C can be wirelessly transmitted to headphones via the plug and USB cables provided. We successfully tested it on a Mac.
The only impractical thing is that you should leave the opening cover of the load box. Alternatively, the Auracast button on the load box display can be activated to share the content with other Auracast devices nearby. This is done by connecting the device to the Smart Tour Pro 3 load box.
Why a display on the load box? The screen has a sense of several ways. On the one hand, it is practical to be able to check the state of the loads of the Pro 3 Tour and the load box, control the music or define anc. And all this without having to take the iPhone. Many of these orders were accessible directly via large touch surfaces on headphones, but visual confirmation makes it easier to use.
His intelligent
Listen to Living spirits Album by Depeche Mode, the live atmosphere appears very well. Dave's voice is powerful and clear to hear, the bass literally applauds the public. This perfectly corresponds to the rocking album, even if the setting is not neutral, but very powerful despite the deactivation of the equalizer.
I go to the album Songs for a nervous planet by tears for fears. If you are used to the sound of cheaper headphones, you are in a revelation. The music is so much more open and fresh with the JBL Tour Pro 3, which is suitable for pop, rock and electronic music where a clean and powerful bass is necessary.
Norah Jones' acoustic jazz brings the pro 3 tour to earth for small wireless intra-ear headphones. The instruments are well separated, but a weakness of the detailed resolution cannot be ignored when using Bluetooth with AAC. For jazz and classical music, the diaphragm area for a complete sound is missing, and Apple does not have a high resolution codec such as LDAC.
In the end, the pro 3 round impresses in its class with a very good sound and the potential to adjust the sound to your own preferences using a good equalizer. This is not enough to bring down the Apple Airpods Pro from its throne, but they are a real alternative.
Should you buy the JBL Tour 3?
The JBL Tour Pro 3 is more than a simple competitor of the Apple AirPods Pro. The Dongle Audio function is very useful, as is the application that accompanies it. Better still, the sound is powerful and very fun, depending on the musical genre.
