Edifier has released a new set of wired in-ear earphones, the Hecate Hunter S, currently available on JD.com. They are priced at 221 yuan ($32), with an initial launch price of 199 yuan ($29).
Edifier Hecate Hunter S Specifications
Inside the earbuds, Edifier is using 10mm dual-chamber dynamic drivers. The diaphragm is made from a liquid crystal polymer (LCP) dome with a titanium plating. Edifier says this specific combination of materials helps with the bass and treble response. The earphones have a frequency response range of 20Hz to 40kHz and a sensitivity of 97dB.
Instead of relying entirely on the audio processing of the device you plug them into, the Hunter S has a built-in DSP and a DAC chip integrated into the cable. It supports audio playback up to 384kHz/32-bit and has a Hi-Res certification.
For gaming, the earphones include THX-customized spatial audio with a 7.1.4-channel configuration. This includes vertical sound positioning, which is designed to help players hear audio cues like footsteps or reloads from above or below them in a game. Through the companion Hecate software, you can access preset EQ profiles for games like Valorant, Counter-Strike, and Delta Force, or adjust the EQ settings manually to your preference.
The earphones use an over-ear cable routing design and an inverted-triangle housing to keep them in place while in use. Edifier says that the design provides up to 30dB of passive noise isolation. The included cable is a 2-meter braided oxygen-free copper wire. It connects via USB-C, making it compatible with Android phones, iPads, the Nintendo Switch, and the PlayStation 5.
The earbuds feature an inline remote with a built-in silicon microphone supporting 48kHz/24-bit voice sampling, along with controls for volume, media playback, and calls. They also feature a durable cable rated for up to 8kg of pulling force, while the buttons and USB connector are rated for 10,000 clicks and 5,000 insertions, respectively.
