Dyson OnTrac Headphones Launched With Advanced Noise Cancellation, 55-Hour Battery Life, & Customizable Design

Dyson, the company well-known for its innovative home appliances, has taken a surprising step into the audio market with the introduction of the OnTrac headphones. These over-ear headphones prioritize comfort, exceptional sound quality, and what they claim to be best-in-class noise cancellation.

Focus on Quiet and Clear Audio

The OnTrac headphones boast an impressive noise-cancelling system that uses eight microphones and a custom algorithm to analyze and reduce unwanted sounds. This system is designed to constantly monitor external noise, analyzing it up to 384,000 times per second. In an ideal scenario, this translates to a reduction of up to 40 decibels of noise, effectively creating a quieter listening environment.

On the other side of the coin, the OnTrac headphones are built to deliver clear and detailed audio. Equipped with 40mm speaker drivers and advanced audio processing technology, these headphones aim to reproduce sound accurately across a wide frequency range.

This means you should be able to hear deep bass notes (as low as 6 Hertz) and crisp highs (up to 21,000 Hertz). The design also incorporates a slight tilt in the speaker housing, which the company says improves the sound delivery directly to your ears.

Built for Long Listening Sessions

Dyson isn't skimping on battery life either. The OnTrac headphones are designed to offer up to 55 hours of playback on a single charge, even with noise cancellation activated. This means you can potentially enjoy numerous listening sessions without needing to scramble for a charger.

Comfort is Key

The company has put a lot of thought into the ergonomics of the OnTrac headphones. Designed for long-term wear, the headphones feature high-quality ear cushions made from soft foam and adjustable arms that pivot at multiple points. This design aims to distribute weight evenly and reduce pressure on your ears, ensuring a comfortable fit for various head sizes.

A Touch of Personal Style

The OnTrac headphones are available in four distinct colorways, each featuring unique, durable finishes. Inspired by CNC manufacturing processes, options include CNC Aluminium, Copper, and Nickel. The Ceramic Cinnabar variant has a ceramic-feel painted finish.

Additionally, users can customize their headphones with outer caps and ear cushions in various colors and finishes. The outer caps are machined from high-grade aluminum, providing a lightweight and durable finish.

Price and Availability

While Dyson hasn't revealed official pricing or availability details yet, the feature set and design suggest these headphones will likely fall into the high-end segment of the audio market. More information on pricing and launch dates should be forthcoming from Dyson.
