The first Sonos headphones are finally here. The Sonos Ace headphones were originally rumoured to launch in 2021, so expectations are high. But the king of multi-room seems to have delivered, with custom drivers, plush build quality and spatial audio with dynamic head tracking. You can head straight over and read our Sonos Ace hands-on review or carry on reading for the key highlights.
Let's start with the sound. Inside each earcup is a custom-designed 40mm dynamic driver – these promise to "render each frequency with impeccable precision and clarity". These drivers are 10mm bigger than the 30mm carbon fibre drivers inside the Award-winning and class-leading Sony WH-1000XM5 (against which the Sonos Ace will inevitably be compared), and the same size as those inside the AirPods Max.
