Denon is back with two new pairs of wireless earbuds, the AH-C500W and the AH-C840NCW. Denon took on the big names on the block with its premium PerL Pro buds last year, but this new duo of contenders is aimed at the more budget to mid-price area of this ever-competitive market.
The more affordable AH-C500W earbuds tease "high-performance sound" from an open design which sees the buds sitting on the ear rather than burrowing deep into it – think of the AirPods 4 with ANC for a comparable configuration. An IPX4 waterproof rating, meanwhile, should keep the new Denon buds safe from splashes of water or trickles of sweat during those rigorous cardio sessions.
