Dutch lifestyle audio brand Fresh ‘n Rebel is democratizing personalized high-end listening with the Clam Ace 2 over-ear headphones, featuring the innovative Personal Sound by Audiodo system integrated into the dedicated My Sound App. This combination allows users to tailor audio precisely to their unique hearing profile, revealing details and nuances often lost in standard playback – all for an accessible €99.99 price point.
At the heart of the Clam Ace 2 experience is Personal Sound by Audiodo, powered by advanced algorithms from Swedish audio tech specialists Audiodo. Unlike traditional equalizers that apply broad adjustments, this feature begins with a quick, user-friendly hearing test conducted directly in the My Sound App. The approximately 3-minute calibration assesses sensitivity across all frequencies for each ear independently, identifying subtle differences in how low, mid, and high tones are perceived.
Personal Sound Profile
Based on the results, the app generates a custom Personal Sound profile that intelligently boosts or attenuates specific frequencies. The outcome? A richer, clearer, and more balanced soundstage where hidden details emerge – from subtle instrument textures to vocal inflections – making music feel more immersive and true-to-life. Users with mild age-related hearing variations or asymmetrical sensitivity between ears particularly benefit, as the system compensates to restore auditory balance.
My Sound App
The My Sound App goes beyond personalization, offering a suite of controls including a built-in equalizer for further fine-tuning to personal taste, customizable button mapping, adjustable Active Noise Cancelling (ANC) levels, volume limits, and battery-saving modes. It’s designed for seamless integration with the Clam Ace 2, ensuring headphone-specific features appear intuitively.
Impressive hardware specs
Complementing the audio personalization, the Clam Ace 2 boasts impressive hardware specs: Adaptive Hybrid ANC with Wind Noise Cancelling for outdoor use, Ambient Sound Mode for situational awareness (activated by holding the left earcup), and an extraordinary battery life of over 100 hours without ANC (60 hours with it enabled). Bluetooth 6.0 supports multipoint connectivity for two devices simultaneously, while dual ENC microphones ensure crystal-clear calls. Additional conveniences include on-ear detection for auto-pause, a foldable design with soft cushions, and USB-C audio support.
Available in six vibrant colors – Ice Grey, Pastel Pink, Dreamy Lilac, Dried Green, True Blue, and Storm Grey – the Clam Ace 2 blends bold aesthetics with practical performance.
In a market flooded with generic wireless headphones, Fresh ‘n Rebel’s integration of Audiodo Personal Sound via the My Sound App stands out as a genuine innovation at the entry-level price segment. It not only enhances enjoyment for casual listeners but also promotes inclusivity by adapting to individual hearing differences. As personalized audio gains traction in high-end circles, the Clam Ace 2 proves that cutting-edge hearing-tailored technology can be both affordable and accessible, potentially setting a new standard for everyday wireless headphones.
