Reproducing authentic sound
When an original music source is compressed, it loses the high-frequency elements that add detail and richness to a track. Our Digital Sound Enhancement Engine (DSEE™) faithfully restores these to produce high-quality sound that’s closer to the original recording.

Tailor sound to your personal preference. Choose from a variety of pre-sets to match sound quality with the genre of music you're listening to. Or create and save your own using the equaliser feature on the Sony│Headphones Connect app.
Head tracking function

Sounds are precisely aligned with your smartphone screen, even as you move, to completely involve you in your viewing.
