Five benefits of wireless noise-cancelling headphones
In today's fast-paced world, where noise seems to be an ever-present companion, finding moments of quiet can feel like a luxury. Whether you're navigating busy city streets or simply trying to relax at home, external sounds can often intrude upon your space and disrupt your focus.
Wireless noise-cancelling headphones not only offer distraction-free listening but also pristine audio and call clarity. From commuters seeking refuge in their daily journeys to audiophiles craving a rich, immersive experience, these headphones help you tune in to the sounds you love.
1. Noise reduction
At the heart of noise-cancelling headphones lies their ability to block out external distractions, transforming any environment into a calm oasis. Using tiny microphones, careful electro-acoustic design and digital signal processing, active noise-cancelling (ANC) headphones analyse ambient sounds and generate anti-noise signals to neutralise unwanted frequencies.
The Dyson OnTrac™ headphones deliver immersive, high-fidelity sound, with best-in-class noise cancellation that monitors surrounding noise 384,000 times per second. They feature multiple microphones, precisely placed to cancel noise from all directions. With Isolation mode to silence the outside world, or Transparency mode to stay alert.
Whether it's the incessant hum of engines during flights or the chatter of commuters on a train, noise cancellation technology ensures that only your music or audio content permeates your ears.
2. Freedom and connectivity
Say goodbye to tangled cords and restrictive tethers. With wireless noise-cancelling headphones you can revel in unrestricted movement plus effortlessly pair your devices via Bluetooth. Integration with voice assistants further enhances convenience, allowing for quick access to information.
Dyson OnTrac™ headphones control sounds and calls through touch or voice. Bluetooth connectivity and fingertip controls let you call hands-free, access Siri or Google assistant, and manage your music on the move.
An enhanced battery offers extended listening, with up to 55 hours of uninterrupted audio with ANC.¹
3. Immersive sound
Over-ear noise-cancelling headphones like the Dyson OnTrac provide an immersive listening experience. With precision drivers and advanced audio processing technologies, the headphones deliver rich soundscapes that breathe life into your favourite music, podcasts, and movies.
Dyson OnTrac™ headphones are engineered for realistic, detailed audio. Intelligent signal processors minimise distortion while the custom-built 40mm, 16-ohm neodymium speaker driver delivers an enhanced audio range. From crisp highs to thunderous bass, every note is rendered with clarity.
Pairing OnTrac with the MyDyson™ app, you can fine tune your sound to suit your listening preferences and content. Choose from Enhanced, Bass boost or Neutral.
4. Intuitive controls
Navigating through your audio journey has never been easier, thanks to the intuitive controls on wireless noise-cancelling headphones. With a simple tap or swipe, they let you adjust volume, skip tracks, and answer calls seamlessly – eliminating the need to fumble with cumbersome buttons or dials.
Dyson OnTrac™ headphones come with an intuitive joystick that lets you play, pause, skip, fast forward and rewind through tracks. Or hold down for voice commands.
Thanks to smartphone compatibility, you can also track real-time sound and battery levels through the MyDyson™ app.
5. Made for travelling
An indispensable companion for commuters and frequent flyers, noise-cancelling headphones help solve common travel problems and elevate mundane journeys.
Engineered for comfort, the Dyson OnTrac™ headphones are ideal for travelling – whether you're flying, commuting by train, or navigating crowded terminals. Soft microfibre ear cups mean you can switch from pop to podcast, all day long.
The In-flight Adaptor Kit allows you to plug into your plane’s entertainment system and charge simultaneously, while the Slimline case protects and store your headphones when travelling.
With immersive soundscapes and unparalleled noise reduction, wireless noise-cancelling headphones take listening experiences to new levels.
