beyerdynamic AVENTHO 300 — Setting the Standard
For this anniversary model, comfort and ergonomics are crucial aspects, so the AVENTHO 300 comes with a lightweight, foldable aluminum body, designed for both walking and traveling. The sound of these headphones is powered by the STELLAR.45 driver, borrowed from studio models like the beyerdynamic DT 700 PRO X. This driver is engineered to deliver precise and rich sound and is developed and assembled at the company's factory in Germany.
Features. The beyerdynamic AVENTHO 300 is Apple MFi certified and equipped with Dolby Head Tracking technology, offering immersive spatial sound. The music adapts to the user's movements, keeping them at the center of the audio experience. To enhance outdoor listening, the model is equipped with Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) powered by two Sony chipsets, leaders in this field. A "transparency" mode is also included.
Connectivity and Control. The headphones connect to a smartphone via the latest Bluetooth 5.4, supporting multipoint connection. AVENTHO 300 offers flexible pairing with multiple devices and can smoothly switch between the last two. The headphones support a wide range of codecs, including AAC, LE Audio, aptX Adaptive, and aptX Lossless, ensuring maximum sound quality and stable connections. In addition to wireless connectivity, there are USB-C and 3.5mm options for digital and analog audio transmission. Playback can be controlled using touch sensors on the earcups. Additionally, sensors are installed to pause the music when the user removes the headphones.
Battery Life. The manufacturer claims that the AVENTHO 300 will play for up to 50 hours. A full charge via USB-C takes 2 hours, while a 10-minute quick charge provides up to 5 hours of playback, which is impressive.
We eagerly await this stylish new model at Dr.Head for testing, as it combines elegant design with reliable materials.
Iconic beyerdynamic Sound in TWS Headphones
The AMIRON 300 is the latest pair of TWS headphones, offering the brand's signature studio sound in an ultra-lightweight and compact body. Whether you're on the go, working out, or relaxing, the AMIRON 300 adapts perfectly to your lifestyle, providing unparalleled sound quality and comfort all day long.
Sound. Equipped with beyerdynamic's proprietary 10mm driver, the AMIRON 300 delivers clear sound that, according to the brand, sets the standard for true wireless headphones. The manufacturer states that these headphones provide "deep bass, clear mids, and crystal-clear highs, making every listening session feel like a studio session."
ANC and Connectivity. With six built-in microphones enhanced by advanced algorithms to filter out ambient noise, the AMIRON 300 turns every call into a clear conversation, even in noisy environments. The new model features ANC that intelligently adapts to your surroundings, allowing you to focus on the music or stay aware of your environment with an advanced transparency mode. Multipoint and Bluetooth 5.3 allow for simultaneous connections to multiple devices, making switching between your phone, laptop, and tablet seamless.
Fit and Comfort. The ergonomic design ensures a secure fit with five different ear tip options, guaranteeing maximum comfort for long-term wear. Thanks to the flat back, the headphones are optimized for comfortable use, even when lying on a pillow. This model is suitable for gym workouts, work, and relaxation.
Battery Life. The total battery life is 38 hours (with the case), with up to 10 hours of continuous playback. The AMIRON 300 is designed for all-day listening. A quick 10-minute charge provides an additional 2 hours of playback, while the Qi-compatible charging case offers convenient and easy charging.
