Cartilage-Connected Headphones

The Audio-Technica ATH-CC500BT2 Has AI Noise Reduction

The Audio-Technica ATH-CC500BT2 headphones are an advanced audio accessory positioned as an alternative to over-ear, open-ear, on-ear and bone conduction headphones. The headphones are engineered to utilize the third auditory pathway, which is through the ear cartilage to completely bypass the ear canal. The headphones thus make use of Acoustic Pure Sound Stabilizer technology that will prevent external vibrations from causing an issue during the listening experience.

The Audio-Technica ATH-CC500BT2 headphones connect to devices over Bluetooth 5.3 to ensure a strong connection, while also supporting Google Assistant and Siri voice assistants. The headphones also feature artificial intelligence (AI) noise reduction to further put the focus on a higher quality audio experience, while the battery inside is rated to deliver up to 20-hours per charge.
