Superior sound, your way

The WH-H910N headphones effectively cancel ambient noise around you so your full attention is on the music. Thanks to the Dual Noise Sensor technology, more ambient sound is caught, improving your listening experience. Adaptive Sound Control allows you to listen your way by automatically changing the headphone sound settings depending on your surroundings. Paired with Quick Attention mode, it's never been easier to lose yourself in music when you're out and about. Simply hold your hand over the earcup to reduce music volume and temporarily listen to announcements around you without removing your headphones. Perfectly pair your WH-H910N headphones and NW-A105 Walkman for colour matching, noise cancelling and high-resolution sound experience.

NW-A105 Walkman is compatible with high-resolution audio, DSD (11.2MHz/ PCM conversion) and PCM (384kHz/32bit)[1] supported by S-Master HX . DSEE HX upscales your existing music to near high-resolution quality and works even when you're streaming music[2]. In addition, NW-A105 Walkman supports high-resolution audio wireless by LDAC , which now suits both wireless and wired connection in high-resolution quality.

The build is precision-engineered for superior sound including a rigid aluminium milled frame and high quality audio parts including solders, film condensers and fine sound resistor also found on the ZX series and NW-WM1Z. In the NW-A105 Walkman these features are packed into a handy sized compact body, so there's no more picking between sound quality and style.

Supported by Android [3] with Wi-Fi, the NW-A105 Walkman grants you access to millions of songs at your fingertips. Stream the latest songs from your preferred provider to experience up and coming artists in their full glory. Plus, you can also access download services directly from the NW-A105 Walkman to store your favourite tracks on your device, perfect for journeys where there is no Wi-Fi connection.

Fashion-forward functionality

Along with Quick Attention mode, touch sensors allow you to control your WH-H910N headphoneswithout getting out your device. Control your headphones via the earcup and surrounding buttons to perform a range of functions including skipping songs and activating the voice assistant.
