In its attempt to take on Sony’s position in the world of audio peripherals, Samsung has launched a new line-up of first-class wireless AKG headphones, the Y600NC and Y400 with active noise cancellation.
Both headsets are equipped with AKG’s signature studio-quality sound to provide smooth, multidimensional tones and exceptional detail topped with deep bass and rich mid-range. According to Samsung, this new range of headphones has been optimized for a wide range of audiences, including music enthusiasts and professionals.
The AKG Y600 has been designed specifically for music enthusiasts who are not looking to compromise on any feature. The headset features Bluetooth 5.0 with 2.402 − 2.48GHz Bluetooth frequency range and GFSK, /4 DQPSK, 8DPSK Bluetooth transmitted modulation. It’s main features are:
The headset is available in three colors, Black, Gold, and Silver, and is constructed using memory foam and protein leather ear-cushions for a comfortable experience. It is currently available for sale and costs £199.
Designed for on-the-go listeners, the AKG Y400 is lighter and smaller than its sibling and can be folded as well. Despite that, according to Samsung, the headset provides crisp and clean sound.
AKG Y400 is equipped with Bluetooth 5.0 with 2.402 − 2.48GHz Bluetooth frequency range and GFSK, /4 DQPSK, 8DPSK Bluetooth transmitted modulation. Apart from this, similar to Y600, the Y400 also offers automatic play and pause, ambient awareness, active noise cancellation, and hands-free controls.
