The next evolution in noise cancellation
Powered by advanced processors and an adaptive microphone system, 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.
Real-time analysis maintains the quiet
Our new Adaptive NC Optimizer delivers unmatched noise-canceling precision-adjusting to external noise, air pressure, and even your wearing style for uninterrupted, immersive sound.
Designed for superior noise cancellation and sound
Lose yourself in the details. The specially designed driver 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.
Engineered to perfection
A specially designed driver 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 industryadopted audio coding technology. LDAC transmits approximately three times more data3 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.
