NEWARK, N.J., Nov. 18, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Panasonic today announced the newest addition to its headphone family, the RP-HD805N high-resolution wireless noise-cancelling headphones.

These wireless headphones are equipped with wideband, high-resolution audio playback¹ and support LDAC™ and Qualcomm^® aptX™ HD audio codecs. These premium codecs faithfully reproduce high-quality sound, allowing for swift responsiveness and authentic audio fidelity.

The HD805N headphones have a Multi-Layer Film (MLF) Diaphragm for the HD driver to further improve response and audio quality while eliminating extraneous vibrations. The structure and materials of the frame were thoughtfully designed to minimize vibrations in the driver and maximize the spaciousness of the sonic field.

The HD805N treats listeners to a perfect audio environment, with three modes of noise cancellation enabled by positioning the microphone outside the housing component and arranging the feedback system on the driver unit closer to the eardrum. Its Ambient Sound Enhancer is a proprietary technology allowing for important sounds, such as airport announcements or cars honking, to penetrate the headphones while noise cancellation is activated. This feature can be turned on and off at the listener's leisure.

Designed to fit any user comfortably, the HD805N headphones are constructed with a 3D Ball Joint Structure enabling the headphones to adapt to the optimum positioning for all head sizes and ear shapes. The HD805N enhances comfort with ergonomically designed 3D ear pads crafted with low-resilience urethane foam providing an air-tight seal for outstanding sound insulation.

With the HD805N, listeners can enjoy hours of music, both at home and away. The HD805N has approximately 20 hours of continuous playback² when noise cancelling is active.

1 Up to 96 kHz/24 bit playback with LDAC™ support when connected via Bluetooth^®. (High-resolution playback with wired connection)
2 During SBC playback

The headphones will be available in black, silver and brown at $249.99 SRP.
