Ace: The long awaited headphones from SONOS.
SONOS has unveiled its long-rumoured Ace wireless headphones.
Featuring spatial audio, dynamic head tracking, lossless audio (where supported), Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), and Dolby Atmos, they can connect directly to SONOS soundbars and use acoustic modelling technology to create a room profile for the headphones, providing a sense of ‘space’ based on your environment.
Ace can automatically switch between soundbar and headphone mode when placed on your head, making it easy to continue watching movies without disturbing others.
They offer 30 hours of battery life with ANC on and have a rapid charging feature that provides three hours of playback with just three minutes of charging. Although they include a USB-C to 3.5mm jack, they cannot be used in passive mode when the battery is dead.
Designed for long-term comfort, the headphones feature a ported acoustic architecture for enhanced bass response. SONOS has invested significantly in the Ace’s sound quality, using custom-designed components and advanced software to deliver high-fidelity audio.
Priced at £449 and will be available from June 5th, with pre-orders open now on the SONOS website.
