Bang & Olufsen Unveils Beoplay H95 – $ 800 Active Noise Canceling Wireless Headphones

These are over-ear, noise-canceling, on-ear travel headphones that come with a compact carry case. The cost of the new item is $ 800, which is significantly more than competing Sony WH-1000XM4 ANC headphones.

The Beoplay H95 cups are oval-shaped with lambskin ear cushions, ideal for extended use. The company said the headband design has been ” completely redesigned ” for a more sophisticated look, combining ” grained cowhide, custom textile ” cover with soft memory foam for increased comfort.

The Beoplay H95 is controlled by touch-sensitive buttons and a physical aluminum disc located on both cups. In addition to what Bang & Olufsen describes as “impressive” passive noise canceling, the Beoplay H95 has adjustable Adaptive Active Noise Cancellation (ANC). The technology is digitally processed and uses forward and feedback microphones to analyze and reduce ambient noise. The ANC was specifically tuned and tested in real-world conditions and at Bang & Olufsen’s VR Lab in Struer, Denmark.

The Beoplay H95 has 4 microphones (2 microphones are used with ANC) and a user-configurable transparency mode, allowing you to hear your surroundings without removing your headphones.

High-quality music reproduction is ensured by 40mm titanium drivers with neodymium magnets and a proprietary digital signal processor. The device supports Bluetooth 5.1 wireless protocol and aptX Adaptive ” dynamically configurable audio codec “. The supported frequency range is 20-22000 Hz. The battery life of Beoplay H95 in active noise canceling mode reaches 38 hours.

Global sales of Beoplay H95 will begin on September 10, but the headphones are already available in limited edition – only 95 pieces. They are decorated with a numbered engraving: one set to commemorate one year.
