Product information
Don’t let life get in the way of a good tune. These Sony WF-1000XM6 earbuds use an advanced noise-cancelling processor and eight mics to hush the outside world. It means you can enjoy clear, balanced sound wherever you go, distraction-free. They’ve been tuned by Grammy Award-winning engineers so every note is crystal clear and full of life. Plus, DSEE Extreme restores detail that normally gets lost when files are compressed. That means your old MP3s sound just as the artist intended with plenty of dynamics. And their ergonomic fit and ventilation system mean they stay comfortable during longer sessions. Perfect for commutes or intense gym sessions.
