A new interview with an Apple audio engineer reveals the secrets of AirPods Pro 2.
“We wanted to give everybody an AirPods Max in their pocket,” Andersen claims. This is quite the ambition, given the disparity in size. The result, says Kabir, and I agree, is the bass is much better in the second-gen AirPods Pro. The new earbuds also sound better, whatever volume you listen at, which is not always the case. Andersen suggests they can “give the same sound signature at lower level as a higher level.
Andersen also says the earbuds adjust the tuning according to what you’re listening to. “If you’re on your Apple TV with a bigger screen, our tuning is different than it would be on an iPhone.” Andersen also talks about how Apple is open to improving the sound continually and for every Apple source. “At the end of the day, there is somewhat of a compromise, because you can't make it perfect for everybody yet.
Andersen says that the codec is not the whole story: “We can still make big strides without changing the codec. And the codec choice we have there today, it's more about reliability. So it’s about making something robust in all environments. We want to push the sound quality forward, and we can do that with a lot of other elements.Finally, without giving away anything—I mean, this is Apple, after all—Andersen hints that more changes are coming.
