Shure Expands Consumer Audio Line with Aonic 40 Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones

Shure's AONIC 40 Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones

Shure introduces its AONIC 40 Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones. Building on the success of the AONIC 50 Headphones and recently launched AONIC FREE Sound Isolating Earphones, the AONIC 40 model broadens the Shure Wireless portfolio to more acutely meet the needs of on-the-go music lovers, commuters, and travel enthusiasts. AONIC 40 Headphones combine a portable and elegant design with Shure audio, the company says. In fact, GRAMMY Award-winning artist Jacob Collier has partnered with the brand to highlight how he relies on Shure's AONIC line for his audio needs while on the move, drawing inspiration from everyday life.

"The first microphone I ever owned was a Shure SM58 microphone. It taught me to listen to the world around me. I've relied on Shure, both in the studio and on stage, for my entire career," shares Collier. "Shure is bringing that same studio quality sound that musicians and artists have trusted for decades to music lovers around the world."

Crafted from premium materials and precision-engineered, the AONIC 40 was designed for long-wearing comfort and durability. Listeners can block out the world with adjustable noise cancellation or activate Environment Mode with the click of a button to hear the outside world without missing a beat. Also featuring up to 25 hours of battery life, premium call quality, and customizable EQ, the AONIC 40 offers a truly superior wireless listening experience, the company says, available in two colors (White/Tan and Black).

"The AONIC 40 takes our 96-year heritage of delivering unparalleled audio in stages and studios around the world and pairs that expertise with our best-in-class Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphone technology. With a sleek, lightweight design and premium call quality, the AONIC 40 is the ideal headphone for anyone looking for the best combination of studio-quality audio performance, style, and comfort, no matter where the day takes them," shares Eduardo Valdes, associate vice president of Global Marketing. "We're proud to be partnering with Jacob Collier on this launch to underscore the Shure tradition of providing everyone, from pioneering artists like Jacob to the everyday commuter, with the gear they need to find inspiration on the go."

The AONIC 40 Headphones are the latest edition to the Shure AONIC line of headphones and earphones, offering a stylish, yet portable design with the brand's iconic sound at a competitive price point. These new headphones are the all-in-one unit for superior audio, highlighting a collapsible design with a compact footprint, adjustable noise cancellation with Environment Mode, quick charge, crystal-clear call quality, accessible and customizable controls, and more, the company says.

Portable Design: The foldable, rugged design and carrying case are ideal for compact storage and durable enough to withstand the user's next adventure.
Adjustable Noise Cancellation: Users can block out surrounding noise and immerse themselves in the AONIC 40 listening experience with three digital ANC settings crafted to deliver users the best noise cancellation, wherever travels lead.
Long-Lasting Comfort: Made with premium materials, including glass-filled nylon and aircraft-grade aluminum alloy, the AONIC 40 offers quality comfort and durability made to last, the company says.
Premium Call Quality: Dial-in to video conferencing or phone calls with exceptional audio, thanks to dual beamforming microphones. Dual USB audio mode enables two-way mic communication with the included USB-C cable or connect with Bluetooth 5 wireless technology for enhanced stability and a range of up to 30'.
Accessible Controls: Answer calls, adjust volume, and control Active Noise Cancellation and Environment Mode levels with the push of a button.

The AONIC 40 Headphones were designed to provide grab-and-go durability, so long-lasting battery life was non-negotiable, the company says. Users can enjoy their music and podcasts with up to 25 hours of battery life with ANC turned on. In a rush? AONIC 40's quick charge feature provides up to 5 hours of use with only 15 minutes of charge.

Users can make their listening experience unique to them by creating their own custom EQ using the free ShurePlus PLAY app, available on iOS and Android. After they've crafted a unique EQ, ShurePlus Play makes it easy to save favorite settings directly to headphones to easily transfer them across devices.

Along with customizing EQ and accessing downloadable firmware updates, ShurePlus PLAY lets users select prompts and tones and modify Environment Mode and Active Noise Cancellation settings. Audio enthusiasts will want to take full advantage of the app's Hi-Res Music Player, the company says.

Purchase includes the headphones, protective zippered carrying case, 3.5mm audio cable, a USB-C cable, and a two-year warranty.

AONIC 40 Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones are now available at select retailers and at www.shure.com/en-US/products/headphones/aonic40.
