Cinema-grade sound field for home streaming

These over-ear headphones use Yamaha Sound Field technology to create a three-dimensional audio space from any Bluetooth device. The 40 mm drivers cover a 20 Hz to 20 kHz range and weigh 265 g for long viewing sessions. A 3.5 mm cable is included for wired listening when wireless is not preferred.

Twenty-hour battery with two-hour recharge

Continuous communication time reaches 20 hrs on a full charge, and the battery replenishes in 2 hrs via USB Type-C. Bluetooth multipoint keeps two devices paired simultaneously so playback switches instantly between phone and tablet. Qualcomm aptX Adaptive maintains stable streaming quality across the 32.8 ft wireless range.

Upgrades basic stereo headsets for movie fans

Buyers moving from standard stereo headphones gain cinema-like immersion and Gaming Mode for reduced audio-video lag. Listening Care equalisation preserves full-range detail at lower volumes, protecting hearing during late-night sessions. Not suited for listeners who require active noise cancellation or fold-flat portability.
