With the BeoPlay H95, introduced three years ago, luxury audio brand Bang & Olufsen pushed the envelope of the high-end ANC (Active Noise Canceling) headphones market with a revered and well-reviewed product that wowed consumers and even some hard-to-please audiophiles. The Danish luxury brand is now back at it with the even more audiophile-friendly Beoplay H100.
B&O’s new high-end ANC headphones are the natural successor and take the sound experience a notch higher. They mount 40mm titanium drivers, which – according to the company – can reproduce frequencies from 10Hz to 40,000Hz. They’re, therefore, compatible with most hi-res music formats and can connect to a computer or a high-fidelity player through a USB-C connection or a USB-C to 3.5mm jack converter.
While hi-fidelity enthusiasts might want to prioritize a cable connection, the Beoplay H100 are first and foremost Bluetooth wireless headphones. Despite having to renounce the quality that would come from a cable connection, users can still listen to high-quality music on the go thanks to the highest possible resolution Bluetooth codecs.
