It\u2019s true that \u201cbefore the pandemic\u201d is a hazy time, an era in which it\u2019s difficult to pin down chronology with any certainty. So while the rumors of Sonos<\/a> headphones definitely began before the pandemic, who knows exactly how long we\u2019ve been waiting for them? Four years? Ten?<\/p>\n

That\u2019s all academic now: They\u2019re here. Sonos isn\u2019t the first company to promise to disrupt a particular sector of the consumer electronics market, and it won\u2019t be the last, yet for once this much-devalued word might be appropriate. The Sonos Ace wireless<\/a> over-ear active noise-canceling headphones<\/a> are specified to go toe-to-toe with the established market leaders from the likes of Apple and Bose, and they’re priced to match at $449 (\u00a3449\/\u20ac499\/AU$699).<\/p>\n

So what does that price actually get you?<\/p>\n

Quiet Luxury<\/h2>\n

Visually, you get an elegant and notably slim pair of over-ear headphones in either a black or \u201csoft\u201d white matte finish. Thanks to a light 312-gram weight, and with some very well-judged clamping force and a clever hanger arrangement that conceals the hinged yoke inside the body of the ear cups, it means all-day comfort.<\/p>\n
