With the Valhalla, Thieaudio presents us with top-of-the-range in-ear monitors equipped with a total of 19 drivers per side, each specialising in a specific frequency band to give you the richest, most detailed sound possible. Added to this is the brand's PBS technology, so you can experience impressive bass for earphones.
Thieaudio's Valhalla earphones incorporate an impressive 19 drivers per side, delivering exceptional resolution while maintaining a comfortable in-ear design. Using a greater number of drivers reduces the workload on each unit, resulting in unrivalled clarity and technical performance.
The Valhalla is equipped with carefully selected components from industry leaders Knowles and Sonion. Each earphone is equipped with four Sonion 38D1XJ007 subwoofers, ten Sonion E50DT0005 low-mid drivers, four Knowles RDE 33729 mid-high drivers and a Knowles WBFK 30095 ultra-high tweeter. These drivers guarantee precise, high-fidelity audio reproduction, meeting the standards of both professional and enthusiast users.
PBS (Precision Bass System) is an innovative solution from Thieaudio that delivers a subwoofer-like experience in an IEM. Developed over the past year, the PBS integrates several low-frequency drivers in a specially designed resonance chamber. This chamber is optimised to achieve a bass range of 200 Hz with increased depth and clarity, while the addition of a bypass tube and decompression vent precisely target ultra-low frequencies from 5 Hz to 20 Hz.
This design not only improves bass extension and impact, but also reduces hearing fatigue by reducing the pressure built up in the ear canal. By combining acoustic precision with ergonomic design, the PBS offers an immersive and comfortable listening experience.
As the flagship of the Thieaudio range, the Valhalla incorporates cutting-edge crossover and acoustic tube technology. Its 4-way passive crossover network, combined with a 4-hole acoustic tube system, ensures precise frequency division and smooth transitions across the entire spectrum. Unlike conventional first-order crossovers, the Valhalla uses several second-order networks for optimum precision. In addition, impedance neutralisation strategies ensure consistent performance, whatever the audio source. This sophisticated engineering results in an unrivalled level of clarity and balance.
The Valhalla embodies the typical Thieaudio sound signature. Bass is characterised by a subwoofer-like impact, with a 10dB bass plateau that rapidly decays and cuts off at 200Hz, preventing any midrange spillover. The midrange is adjusted with a gentle 1dB slope from 200Hz to 800Hz, balancing neutrality with a touch of warmth. The highs feature 8dB gain at 2.8kHz, with ultra-high output extended to 40kHz, offering brilliance and clarity without harshness.
Valhalla also comes with Thieaudio's flagship EliteNoir cable. This consists of a combination of silver-plated 4N and 5N monocrystalline OFC copper wires, then insulated with flexible PVC. For furthermore flexibility, the EliteNoir cable has an interchangeable termination and both 3.5mm and 4.4mm jack plugs are supplied.
