Sound quality, at its best

Hear more of the music you love. The original driver and advanced processing reveal fine textures and space, while careful sound tuning keeps everything balanced wherever you listen.

Our best call quality ever

Two microphones work with a bone conduction sensor to detect your voice while AI beamforming steers pickup and reduces ambient noise. The person on the other end hears you, not your surroundings.

Adapts in real time

Intelligent by design. With Adaptive NC Optimiser, four microphones track ambient sound while the processor refines the profile in real time, helping maintain effective noise cancelling across different environments and wearing conditions.

Stay connected, stay aware

Dual feedforward microphones let the outside come through clearly and naturally. Hear conversations and cues around you without taking the earbuds out.

Stay in sync. Wherever you are.

Our Auto Ambient Sound mode is even better at adapting to your surroundings in real time, balancing music and external sound. Multiple microphones filter noise or let in what matters: announcements, conversations, or the world around you. Adjust settings automatically or fine-tune them manually in the Sound Connect app.

Experience Auto Ambient Sound for yourself. Headphones recommended.

Shaped for true immersion

Refined to follow the ear's natural curves, the ergonomic design settles in quickly and stays comfortable. A steadier seal and isolation eartips support stronger noise cancelling and clearer, more immersive sound throughout the day. The eartips are available in four sizes: XS, S, M, and L.

Wind noise-reduction structure

Internal cavity is strategically designed to cancel incoming wind noise, effectively minimising its occurrence to the greatest extent possible.

Sound quality, at its best

Tuned with mastering engineers, the acoustic design delivers natural balance and fine detail. From the lightest breath to deep resonance, every element sits in its place.

Hear it as the artist intended

Developed in collaboration with mastering engineers, the WF-1000XM6 refines every note for studio-level accuracy and also  delivers music in its best form. From deep bass to crisp highs, its tuning unlocks the full potential of every song—delivering the emotion, energy, and detail the artist intended.

Delivering the artist’s intent unchanged

The sound the artist approves should reach the listener unchanged—that’s what a consumer product must ensure. You should hear detail at low volumes and never feel fatigued at high volumes. Smooth, non-irritating sound is essential. The WF-1000XM6 earbuds are really easy to listen to. I find that I can listen to the same songs multiple times without getting bored or tired. Sony truly considers both consumer and professional needs—and designs products that meet both.

Studio-level sound in a small form

The WF-1000XM6 delivers sound astonishingly close to studio-quality, all within a remarkably compact package. I’m always checking whether the emotional impact I feel in the studio is preserved when listening through headphones. Often it’s the 1dB adjustments that make the biggest difference. Micro-EQ tweaks, not major redesigns, are what truly refine the final sound. Our feedback in the US gets woven into the design in Tokyo and returns as the next prototype. Seeing that evolution is incredibly rewarding.

Beyond technology, into the music

The ideal sound is one that is easy to listen to and completely natural. The most fulfilling listening experience is when the equipment disappears, and you can simply immerse yourself in the music itself. Great headphones allow the art—not the technology—to take centre stage. Success is when the listener forgets the device and is naturally guided straight into the music.

Engineered for superior sound

A refined original driver brings lifelike depth to your music. Smooth, full-bodied lows blend seamlessly with clear highs for an authentic, high-resolution sound.

Clarity, elevated

Powered by the HD Noise Cancelling Processor QN3e, with an improved DAC and amplifier, to delivers cleaner, richer sound that reveals every nuance. It’s audio that feels true to the moment.

Enjoy High-Resolution Audio without wires

The WF-1000XM6 supports High-Resolution Audio Wireless thanks to LDAC, our industry-adopted audio coding technology. LDAC transmits approximately three times more data than conventional Bluetooth® audio for exceptional High-Resolution Audio quality.
