Phantom Bass
Phantom Bass is a technology that uses perceptual audio processing to restore low-end perception, boosting sub-bass harmonics to restore depth and impact, delivering a natural, open sound with full, powerful bass. This feature is particularly beneficial because open-ear designs naturally lose low-frequency impact due to air leakage.

Open-Wearable Stereo (OWS) headphones offer an unmatched balance of comfort and function:
- Extreme Comfort: No insertion into the ear canal means no pressure, making them ideal for long-term wear.
- Hygiene & Health: The non-intrusive design reduces bacteria buildup and lowers the risk of hearing fatigue.
- Environmental Awareness: They allow you to hear your surroundings clearly, making them perfect for outdoor sports or office environments where you need to stay connected to the world around you.
-
Bone Conduction: Transmits vibrations through your skull directly to the inner ear.
- Air Conduction (ROG Cetra Open Wireless): Functions like a precise mini-speaker that directs sound through the air into your ear. This method typically provides better audio clarity and stronger bass performance, offering a sound signature much closer to traditional high-quality headphones.
