Dyson OnTrac Headphones Specifications
Dyson OnTrac headphones are equipped with 40mm neodymium drivers that can produce sound in frequencies between 6Hz and 21kHz. It offers ANC support with eight microphones to cancel out up to 40dB of background noise. Dyson says users can simply tap the earcups to switch to ANC mode.
The headphones can be paired with the MyDyson app to unlock additional sound customisation options. The app enables monitoring of in-ear and external volume, alerting the wearer if it reaches harmful levels. It also allows them to switch between three sound EQ modes: Bass Boost, Neutral and Enhanced.
Dyson OnTrac headphones feature head detection technology that uses capacitive sensors to detect when the earcups are removed and pause the audio. They’re powered by a lithium-ion battery housed in the right and left cushions on the headband. Dyson promises up to 55 hours of battery life with ANC turned on.
