TECH - Apple Analyst Notes Users Are Lavishing Praise On Sonos' New $449 Headphones For Superior Sound Quality Over Airpods Max: 'Ace Has a Real Opportunity To Succeed' | Benzinga
Last week, the Ace headphones from Sonos Inc. (NASDAQ:SONO) were released. Now Bloomberg columnist Mark Gurman reports that users who have tried these $499 headphones think they have “decidedly superior sound” compared to Apple Inc.’s (NASDAQ:AAPL) AirPods Max.
What Happened: In his latest installment of the weekly “Power On” newsletter, Gurman stated that Sonos’ Ace headphones come with contemporary features like active noise cancellation and Wi-Fi-based syncing with the Sonos Arc sound bar.
This feature enables users to access TV content with the Arc acting as an intermediary. The headphones also feature faux leather earcups and, according to initial users, provide superior sound quality compared to the AirPods Max.
