All the vivid details.
AirPods Max deliver stunningly detailed, high-fidelity audio for an unparalleled listening experience. Each part of the custom-built driver works to produce sound with ultra-low distortion across the audible range — so you’ll hear every note with a new sense of clarity.
Personalized Spatial Audio with dynamic head tracking3 gives you a theater‑like experience with sound that surrounds you for movies, TV shows, and games. Using built-in gyroscopes and accelerometers, AirPods Max and your iPhone, iPad, Mac, or Apple TV track the subtle motion of your head, anchoring sounds to your device.
Adaptive EQ tailors sound to the bespoke fit and seal created by the ear cushions. Inward-facing microphones measure what you’re hearing, then adjust the frequencies of your music to deliver a rich, consistent experience that faithfully reproduces every note.
Pro‑level Active Noise Cancellation. With up to 2x more noise cancelled,1 pro‑level Active Noise Cancellation counters external sound with equal anti‑noise. With control over what you hear — and don’t hear — you can immerse yourself in music and podcasts, or simply stay focused, like never before.
Transparency mode. Press the noise control button to switch to Transparency mode, which lets outside sound in so you can interact naturally with your surroundings.
