Sony has announced two new headphone models, both giving Kiwi music lovers the option of on-ear or over-ear wireless headphones packed with Sony’s acclaimed audio technology.
The newly released Sony WH-CH720N over-ear wireless headphones incorporate Dual Noise Sensor technology and Sony’s Integrated Processor V1 chip to provide noise cancelling. With a lightweight design and up to 35 hours of battery life lets you enjoy music for longer without background interruptions.
The on-ear WH-CH520 wireless headphones provide up to 50 hours battery life with all day comfort and enhanced call performance to meet the demands of your day. Both models also feature Digital Sound Enhancement Engine (DSEE) to produce high-quality sound exactly as the artist intended as well as Multipoint connection for easy connectivity between devices.
Whether the wearer is flying long-haul or relaxing in a café, the over-ear WH-CH720N headphones deliver Sony’s advanced noise cancelling performance thanks to the Integrated Processor V1 chip and Dual Noise Sensor technology.
The Integrated Processor V1 helps eliminate external sound, with a low processing delay to make the noise cancelling more effective than ever. The WH-CH720N also features two microphones in each earcup which, coupled with Dual Noise Sensor technology, captures ambient sound. This lets the wearer block outside noise everywhere they go, so the only thing they hear is whatever they're listening to. With the Sony Headphones Connect app, ambient sound across 20 different levels can also be adjusted for when you’re on the move.
You’ll never need to take a break from your favourite music with the WH-CH720N. The over-ear headphones are ergonomically designed to be comfortable for even longer periods. At just 192g, the WH-CH720N are Sony’s lightest overhead wireless headphones with noise cancelling. Comfortable synthetic leather and urethane materials combine with optimum ear
pad structure and dimensions for exceptional wearability.
The WH-CH520 have also been carefully designed with everyday use in mind. Sony says they can stay powered up for days with up to 50 hours of battery life. So the wearer can listen to their favourite music without worrying about running out of charge. The on-ear headphones feature an adjustable headband with padding, soft earpads and a lightweight design so you can find the perfect fit and stay comfortable for longer.
Sony says both new models deliver natural vocals, crystal clear sound and balanced tuning thanks to the Digital Sound Enhancement Engine (DSEE), producing a high-quality sound
exactly as the artist intended. When the original music is compressed, it loses the high-frequency elements that add details and richness to a track. Sony’s Digital Sound Enhancement Engine faithfully restores these to produce high-quality sound that’s closer to the original recording.
The Integrated Processor V1 included within the WH-CH720N also produces an authentic listening experience by reproducing the detail in music with minimal distortion. The sound
tuning is intentionally designed to be well-balanced from low to high frequencies with natural and clear vocals.
Whether the wearer is listening to electrifying rock or heavy bass pop tracks, Sony says the WH-CH720N and WH-CH520 will allow them to tailor the sound using the Equaliser in the Sony Headphones Connect app. A variety of settings can be chosen to match sound quality with the music genre being listening to or even create and save individual settings.
The Sony WH-CH720N and WH-CH520 are both available in New Zealand now.
