Analysis: why has Cambridge Audio lowered the price?
Usually a price reduction indicates that a new model is on the horizon but
as the Melomania 1 Plus only launched in March this year, it feels a little soon for a new generation.
It could be that Cambridge Audio is preparing to release a new version of the Melomania Touch , which offered the excellent audio experience we've come to expect from the company, but were badly let down by finicky touch controls
and connectivity issues.
Those buds were launched in January 2021, so a new model could be on the
cards but it would still be a quick turnaround between generations.
The likelihood is that Cambridge Audio wanted to find a way to entice new customers. A sub-$100/100 price puts the Melomania 1 Plus firmly into the realm of budget wireless earbuds , and that opens the door to a host of new potential buyers.
While we think the audio quality, design, and battery life of the Melomania 1 Plus fully justified their previous price, the lack of active noise cancellation an increasingly common feature among true wireless earbuds may have dissuaded otherwise keen customers.
Whatever the reason, we're glad to see that audiophile earbuds like these
have been made even more accessible, proving that high-quality sound doesn't have to cost a premium. Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 vs Galaxy Buds : what's new
