Powerful 40mm drivers, with Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) diaphragms, make the headphones perfect for handling heavy beats and can reproduce a full range of frequencies up to 40kHz.

Adaptive Sound Control is a smart function that can learn to recognise locations you frequently visit, such as your workplace or favourite caf, and tailor sound for the ideal listening experience.
