Cambridge Audio has announced a new pair oftrue wireless earbudsthat offer aptX Lossless, Class AB amplification and 10 hours of ANC battery life, but perhaps the most exciting news for Britpop and 90s indie rock fans is a niche, but rather interesting tie-in.
The British audio firm has partnered with The Charlatans front man Tim Burgess for a special edition pair of the new Cambridge Audio Melomania M100 buds, which are designed around the band’s 1997 video for How High.
The standard M100 buds come in black and sport a 10mm driver in each ear. As well as lossless audio streaming, they use Snapdragon Sound tech to support aptX Adaptive at up to 24-bit/96kHz.
There’s adaptive active noise cancellation on board (ANC) and users can alter the audio signature with seven-band EQ adjustment on the dedicated Melomania Connect control app forAndroidandiOS. There are six presets to choose from too.

Bluetooth 5.3 LE is used for wireless transmission and there is a gaming mode, to boot. This allows for negligible latency (80ms) when playing mobile games.
The buds offer up to 10 hours of playback with ANC engaged and 16 hours with it switched off. The charging case adds 23 hours extra with ANC, 36 without. That means you can get up to 52 hours out of the buds before needing to recharge the case itself.
It is Qi wireless certified and supports Fast Charge for two hours of ANC-enabled playback after just 10 minutes of charging time.
