Sony WH-1000XM6 Wireless Noise Canceling Headphones

The WH-1000XM6 is the current generation of Sony's 1000X noise-cancelling headphones. The HD Noise Canceling Processor QN3 runs seven times faster than the XM5's processor and steers twelve microphones, adapting the cancellation in real time to how the headphones sit and what is around you. Frequency response runs 4 Hz to 40 kHz through 30 mm drivers, with LDAC for high-resolution Bluetooth.

Battery life is up to 30 hours with noise cancelling on or 40 hours off. The closed over-ear design weighs about 254 g and includes a detachable 1.2 m cable with a gold-plated L-shaped mini plug for wired use. Black or platinum silver.
