The Sony WH1000XM5 are wireless over-the-ear headphones with noise cancelling. Each ear cup has four microphones that pick up ambient sound. The Auto NC Optimizer adjusts noise cancelling to the wearing conditions and to external factors such as atmospheric pressure.
Each headphone has a 30mm driver unit made with a carbon fiber composite material, which gives more sensitivity to high frequencies. The build uses lead-free solder with gold to improve conductivity. Optimized circuitry and a Fine Sound Resistor support clear, consistent sound.
The design is lightweight for comfort during long listening sessions.
