Shure AONIC 40 headphones with accurate sound and easy connectivity

Editor’s brief: There are way too many Bluetooth-only headphones and headsets, but very few options for headphones and headsets with Bluetooth, USB-C and 3.5mm all in one. Fortunately, the Shure AONIC 40 is a new option, with great noise cancellation as well. Read more below.

SINGAPORE ⎯

Shure, a worldwide leader in audio technology, debuted their AONIC 40 Wireless Noise-Cancelling Headphones in Singapore today. The AONIC 40 expands the Shure Wireless portfolio, joining the wildly popular AONIC 50 Headphones and the brand new AONIC FREE Sound Isolating Earphones in catering to the needs of mobile music listeners, including commuters and vacationers.

The AONIC 40 Headphones feature revered Shure audio in a portable and stylish package, making them ideal for musicians and other creators in a wide variety of fields. In fact, Jacob Collier, a GRAMMY®-winning artist, has teamed up with Shure to highlight how he uses the company’s AONIC line to meet his audio needs while on the road and drawing creativity from his surroundings.

“The first microphone I ever owned was a Shure SM58® microphone. It taught me to listen to the world around me. I’ve relied on Shure, both in the studio and on stage, for my entire career,” shared Jacob. “Shure is bringing that same studio quality sound that musicians and artists have trusted for decades to music lovers around the world.”

The AONIC 40 was expertly crafted from high-quality materials and meticulously engineered to provide long-term support and convenience. Adjustable noise cancellation allows users to tune out the world or, with the push of a button, enable Environment Mode so they can listen to music without missing a beat. The AONIC 40, available in White/Tan and Black, provides a superior wireless listening experience, with up to 25 hours of battery life, premium call quality, and EQ customization.

“The AONIC 40 takes our 96-year heritage of delivering unparalleled audio in stages and studios around the world and pairs that expertise with our best-in-class Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphone technology. With a sleek, lightweight design and premium call quality, the AONIC 40 is the ideal headphone for anyone looking for the best combination of studio-quality audio performance, style, and comfort, no matter where the day takes them,” shared Eduardo Valdes, Associate Vice President of Global Marketing. “We’re proud to be partnering with Jacob Collier on this launch to underscore the Shure tradition of providing everyone, from pioneering artists like Jacob to the everyday commuter, with the gear they need to find inspiration on the go.”
