Product details

With the latest generation of Adaptive Active Noise Cancellation, Beoplay HX effectively compensates and eliminates background noise. High-quality materials and a close-fitting design provide effective
sound isolation, so you can keep your listening experience to yourself - ideal if you work from home and don't want to disturb your family. Four dedicated microphones ensure optimal clarity of speech and sound when you need to make a call. The Beoplay HX is fine-tuned by industry-leading engineers to ensure the music sounds to your ears as the artist intended. Custom 40mm drivers with neodymium magnets deliver a precise and immersive listening experience. What's more, you can customise your sound profile via BeoSonic in the Bang & Olufsen app, as well as adjust ANC levels to suit your needs wherever you are. The Beoplay HX has been designed with light weight and durable materials in mind. As a result, it is optimally created for a comfortable listening experience. The headband features a comfort zone in the middle that reduces pressure and allows for long wear, while the soft lambskin and memory foam ear cushions gently frame the face. The materials were chosen for the high level of comfort they provide as well as their durability.

The B&O Beoplay HX has a noble finish and is perfect for modern working nomads thanks to its high wearing comfort, balanced music reproduction and great speech intelligibility when talking on the phone. The ANC works well, but it cannot fully compensate for the small noise deficiency of the earcups. Exemplary: B&O replaces the battery during servicing.
