The Mark Levinson No. 5909 headphones are the first headphones from this elite division of Harman. These over-ear headphones feature adaptive Active Noise Cancellation, USB-C wired connections and wireless Bluetooth with broad codec compatibility. With a simple app to fine tune ANC modes and bass response, the No. 5909 are one of the best wireless noise-canceling headphones on the market.
The Mark Levinson No. 5909 are the first wireless headphones from this company that has always been synonymous with high-fidelity audio. They join amplifiers, pre-amps, CD players, turntables, and of course, luxury car audio systems. That these are tuned to the Harman Curve should come as no surprise and they are Hi-Res Audio certified.
The headphones use 40 mm beryllium-coated drivers for a full-range sound. The frequency response is rated at 20Hz-20kHz in active mode, and an impressive 10Hz-40kHz in passive mode. Maximum SPL is 98 dB, and the input sensitivity is 32 ohms. The wireless system uses Bluetooth 5.1 technology with LDAC, AAC and aptX Adaptive capabilities. It can pair to two devices.
The No. 5909 drip quality and luxury. They're available in three colorways: black, red, and gray. The colors are just on a small section of the earcup - for the most part, these are elegant, black headphones.
While most of the headphone is metal and leather, the plastic on the earcups is finished with an auto-motivegrade finish that elevates them to match the quality of the rest of the components. The headband is wrapped in black leather and the padding features red stitching in all the colorways.
