Apple goes into more detail about the AirPods Max in a separate video narrated by company executives Evans Hankey, VP of Industrial Design, and Gary Geaves, VP of Acoustics. The video is set to the song "Empty Dancefloor" by Soulwax.


"High-fidelity audio," says Apple. "Active Noise Cancellation with Transparency mode. Spatial audio for theater-like sound that surrounds you. Stunning design with an exceptional fit. All with the effortless magic of AirPods."

Definitely going to just stick with my Bose QC 35's. Had them for years and still working and sounding great!!

$549 is too steep, if I was going to spend $549 I would get a better pair of high fidelity headphones! Just my opinion!
