Noise Canceling

The next evolution in noise cancellation
Powered by advanced processors and 12 adaptive microphones, noise cancellation is optimized in real time-so your world stays undisturbed, and your sound remains pure down to the finest detail.

7x faster. Flawless control.
With processing speeds seven times faster than its predecessor (found in our WH-1000XM5 headphones), the HD Noise Canceling Processor QN3 fine-tunes 12 microphones in real time-delivering a dramatic leap in noise cancellation, sound quality, and call clarity.

12 microphones. Precise detection.
With optimally placed microphones, noise cancellation adapts more precisely to your wearing situation and environment-so your sound feels effortless and powerful.

Designed for superior noise cancellation and sound
Lose yourself in the details. The specially designed driver unit is optimally tuned for enhanced noise cancellation and supported by a lightweight carbon fiber dome that keeps high frequencies crisp and clear.

Stay in sync. Wherever you are.
Our Auto Ambient Sound mode is even better at adapting to your surroundings in real time by balancing music and external sound. The multiple microphones can filter out the noise or let in what matters: announcements, conversations, or the world around you. Adjust settings automatically or fine-tune them manually in the Sony| Sound Connect app.

Sound Quality

Hear it as the artist intended
Developed in collaboration with world-renowned mastering audio engineers, these headphones deliver unparalleled sound clarity and precision. A specially designed driver with a lightweight carbon fiber dome delivers high fidelity sound, where rich vocals and every instrument remains pure and balanced. Optimized for advanced noise cancellation, the WH-1000XM6 headphones keep every frequency crisp and true to the artist's intent.

Engineered to perfection
A specially designed driver unit delivers clarity that feels almost tangible-highs shimmer, vocals breathe, and every detail comes through with precision. With optimized circuitry and premium materials, sound flows effortlessly, pure and balanced.

Richer detail. Clearer vocals.
A high-rigidity carbon fiber dome and uniquely developed voice coil structure bring out the subtleties in every frequency-so vocals sound richer, instruments feel more defined, and every track carries more emotion.

Authenticity, in every note
The newly developed look-ahead noise shaper D/A conversion technology in our HD Noise Canceling Processor QN3, better anticipates and adjusts the combined output-reducing distortion, enhancing bass energy, and delivering crisp, fast sound that stays true to your music.

Enjoy High-Resolution Audio with and without wires
The WH-1000XM6 headphones support High-Resolution Audio and High-Resolution Audio Wireless, thanks to LDAC, our industry-adopted audio coding technology. LDAC transmits approximately three times more data than conventional Bluetooth audio for exceptional High-Resolution Audio quality.

Real-time restoration of all your compressed files
Using Edge-AI (Artificial Intelligence), DSEE Extreme upscales compressed digital music files in real time. It dynamically identifies instrumentation, musical genres, and individual elements of each song, restoring high-range sound lost during compression.

Fine-tune your entertainment experience
With the Sony | Sound Connect app it's easy to personalize your sound. Compare settings, tweak the details, and find the perfect balance for every song, scene, and game session.

Listening to music
Dial in your perfect sound with the 10-band EQ, or create a spacious feel with a Background Music Effect.

Playing games
Game Equalizer (EQ), developed with Sony's gaming gear lineup, INZONE, enhances sound clarity for FPS gaming across our headphone range.

Cinema
Human voices, environmental sounds and effects are placed in a spherical field with location data, expanding audio beyond your headphones for a theater-like experience. 360 Reality Audio Upmix for Cinema makes playback of stereo audio sound like spatial audio in your headphones by using Sony's 360 Spatial Sound technology.

A new sound experience for AR gaming
If you're looking for new entertainment options beyond music and movies, the WH-1000XM6 headphones use new sensors and spatial sound technology to deliver immersive sound for Augmented Reality games like "Ingress" from Niantic.

When playing "Ingress" with the WH-1000XM6 headphones, sensor and spatial sound technologies deliver a new experience: using head tracking, the sound is conveyed from different directions to line up perfectly with the action on the screen.

Head tracking function
Head tracking ensures a realistic and compelling listening experience by automatically adjusting sound fields to compensate for your head movement. Sounds are precisely aligned with your headphones, even as you move, to completely involve you in your listening, when paired with compatible devices and services.

With head-tracking capability
With conventional headphones, when your head moves, the sound moves with the headphones. This disconnects the sound from its position in space, impairing the 3D effect and presence.

Experience head tracking for yourself
Experience the immersive power of head tracking for yourself with this simulation. Pop on some headphones and watch the video to learn more and hear how head tracking makes your listening more realistic.

Certified headphones for a personalized experience
With 360 Reality Audio Certified headphones and our Sony | Sound Connect app you can optimize your experience by analyzing your individual ear shapes so you can enjoy the ultimate immersive music experience.

An advanced personal optimization algorithm gives an even greater sense of sound space, distance and height, allowing you to become even more immersed in the music.

A personal cinematic experience With BRAVIA
Enjoy a thrilling Dolby Atmos experience and 360 Spatial Sound that adapts to your ears with BRAVIA and these headphones.

360 Spatial Sound Personalizer
With the Sony | 360 Spatial Sound Personalizer app, you'll enjoy a sound experience that's optimized for you. The app captures and analyses your ear shape, allowing these headphones to create your spatial sound field when paired with select BRAVIA TVs.
