MUSICAL ENJOYMENT TO LAST A LIFETIME

LISTENING CARE—ADVANCED FOR SUPERB SOUND QUALITY AT THE CORRECT VOLUME

HIGH-QUALITY SOUND EXPERIENCE

Advanced ANC
Active noise cancelling has a reputation for losing low-frequency signals during music playback. Advanced ANC takes a new approach, suppressing ambient noise without applying any processing to the music signal.
Using internal microphones and a new, unique algorithm from Yamaha, the headphones separate signal processing of background noise and music. The headphones analyze the noise collected by the internal microphones and calculate what should be removed from the playback music signal, so that only noise is erased. This means no unnecessary processing of the music signal, preserving the purity of the music.
Listening Optimizer
The size and shape of each person's ears and head are uniquely different – as are the acoustics and surroundings they find themselves in each day – which greatly impacts the way sound is interpreted.
Listening Optimizer utilizes microphones to make constant measurements (every 20 seconds) and advanced processing to analyze factors such as seal and air leakage. Playback is optimized in real time to correct the difference between the source and the actual listening condition, delivering a sound customized to the individual listener.

3D Sound Field with head tracking
With traditional headphone listening, sound is “localized” inside of the listener’s head. While this is enjoyable, it lacks the realism and immersion of the real world where sound comes at us from all around. 3D Sound Field transforms stereo sound into three-dimensional listening experiences; it pulls the sound out of your head and puts you into a sonic space of your choosing.
3D Sound Field is accompanied by dynamic head tracking, employing a gyroscope built into the headphones. As your head turns, the sound stays oriented as it would in real life, which further enhances the realism of the experience.
While 3D Sound Field works with any stereo audio content from virtually any source, it especially enhances watching movies and videos on mobile devices, providing cinema-like sound where the dialogue comes from the screen, while ambience, sound effects and music surround you. It also puts you into an acoustic environment, so it sounds like you're there - at a movie theater, concert hall or outdoor arena.
Choose from seven different listening modes, to tailor the experience to your content. Watching a movie? Pick "Cinema" mode. A concert video? Try "Outdoor Live."
