Description

The next evolution in noise cancellation

Quiet, down to the finest detail. Powered by advanced processors and an adaptive microphone system, noise cancelling is optimised in real time—so your world stays undisturbed, and your sound stays pure.

7x faster. Flawless control.

With processing speeds seven times faster than its predecessor, the HD Noise Cancelling Processor QN3 fine-tunes 12 microphones in real time—delivering a dramatic leap in noise cancelling, sound quality, and call clarity.

12 microphones. Precise detection.

With optimally placed microphones, noise cancellation adapts more precisely to your fit and environment—so your sound feels effortless and powerful.

Real-time analysis. Adaptive quiet.

Our new Adaptive NC Optimiser delivers unmatched noise-cancelling precision— adjusting to external noise, air pressure, and even your fit for uninterrupted, immersive sound.

Designed for superior noise cancellation and sound

Lose yourself in the details. The specially designed driver unit is optimally tuned for enhanced noise cancellation, and supported by a lightweight carbon fibre dome that keeps high frequencies crisp and clear.

Stay in sync. Wherever you are.

Our Auto Ambient Sound mode is even better at adapting to your surroundings in real time, balancing music and external sound. Multiple microphones filter noise or let in what matters: announcements, conversations, or the world around you. Adjust settings automatically or fine-tune them manually in the Sound Connect app.
