Shure Aonic 40 Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones w/ Studio Quality Sound (White)

Studio-Quality Audio with Portable Convenience

The Shure AONIC 40 Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones in White/Tan deliver studio-grade sound in a lightweight, foldable design, perfect for audiophiles, travelers, and professionals across Australia. Engineered with Shure’s near-century expertise in professional audio, these over-ear headphones feature adjustable active noise cancellation (ANC), customizable EQ, and premium call quality, ideal for music, commuting, and video conferencing. The sleek white/tan aesthetic combines comfort and durability for all-day use.

Precision Sound and Noise Cancellation

Equipped with 40mm dynamic drivers and neodymium magnets, the AONIC 40 offers a frequency response of 20 Hz – 22 kHz, delivering clear, accurate audio with a slightly bass-forward profile. Support for multiple codecs (Qualcomm® aptX, aptX HD, AAC, SBC) ensures high-fidelity playback across devices. The ShurePlus™ PLAY app (iOS/Android) enables customizable EQ with presets or manual adjustments, saving profiles directly to the headphones for seamless use across apps. Adjustable ANC provides three settings (Light, Normal, Max), blocking up to 30 dB of ambient noise, suitable for travel or office settings, though some users note a slight hiss or sound signature shift when ANC is active. Environment Mode, toggled via a button or app, allows users to hear surroundings without removing the headphones, enhancing situational awareness.

Durable Design with Versatile Connectivity

Crafted with premium faux-leather earpads and a padded headband, the AONIC 40 ensures comfort for extended wear, though the plastic headband may feel less sturdy and can exert pressure after long sessions. The foldable design collapses into a hard-sided zippered carrying case, with a visual guide for proper storage to avoid strain on the headband. Bluetooth 5.0 offers a 10 m range and multipoint connectivity for two devices, though some users report inconsistent multipoint performance. Up to 25 hours of battery life (ANC on) with a quick-charge feature (15 minutes for 5 hours) supports uninterrupted use. Wired options include a 3.5mm audio cable for passive listening and a USB-C cable for charging or digital audio (16-bit/48 kHz), with a Dual USB audio mode for two-way mic communication during calls. Onboard controls manage calls, volume, ANC, and playback, with beamforming microphones ensuring clear call quality.
