Everything Great Noise Canceling Headphones Should Be
Unmistakable Sony sound. Superior comfort. Precision noise canceling. They're everything great headphones should be. Bring out the most in your music while canceling up to 99% of ambient noise with our exclusive Dual Noise Sensor technology. With a passive listening mode that works even if the batteries die, plus super comfortable ear pads, these head phones don't miss a beat–and neither will you.
Get Lost in Your Music, not the Noise
Tune out the outside world with MDR-10RNC headphones. They effectively reduce up to 99% of ambient noise via intelligent analysis of environmental sounds. Simply push a button and dual noise sensors mounted on the inside and outside of the earcups automatically select the optimal noise-cancelling mode (airplane, train, office) to keep the outside world out, and your entertainment in.
Prepare for Exceptional Sound
Immerse yourself in an extraordinary audio experience. Newly-developed 40mm driver units deliver balanced and accurate sound reproduction, while the Beat Response Control design provides tight and deep bass response that perfectly complements today's popular music genres.
Comfort Meets Portability
Your ears will thank you for the most comfortable listening experience they've ever had while the plush and soft swivel earcups fold flat for those rare times the outside world sounds better than your tunes.
Never Miss a Beat
Personalize the music, call, and mode control functionality of your compatible Android™ smartphone with the downloadable SmartKey™ app and the in-line remote with microphone. Also compatible with Apple® devices1.
Long Battery Life
A single AAA battery powers up to 20 hours of noise cancelling perfection, and Passive Mode combined with the supplied cord lets you continue listening to your headphones and make calls even when the battery runs dry4.
