Dyson on Monday (September 23, 2024) launched its high-fidelity headphones OnTrac in India. The new Dyson OnTrac features active noise cancellation (ANC), and extends the company’s audio line up to two with Dyson Zone -- launched last year.

The new Dyson OnTrac uses 8 microphones for ANC, sampling external sound 384,000 times per second, and canceling up to 40dB of noise.

The Dyson OnTrac headphones come with 40 mm, 16-ohm neodymium speaker drivers. The headphones reproduce frequencies from 6Hz to 21,000Hz.

Dyson OnTrac headphones claim up to 55 hours of playtime on two lithium-ion battery cells that are suspended in the headband. To switch between ANC on and off, users have to double-tap on either ear cup.
