Beyerdynamic’s Bold Foray: A Trio for Every Listener

Beyerdynamic’s new lineup isn’t about one-size-fits-all. Instead, it smartly covers different listening styles with the AVENTHO 200 headphones over-ear ANC headphones, and two open-ear models: the AMIRON ZERO headphones and AMIRON 200 headphones. Each caters to unique needs—from the urban commuter craving sanctuary from noise, to the active athlete wanting to stay aware of the world around them. This approach signals Beyerdynamic has been paying attention to the evolving habits of today’s listeners, blending their audio heritage with modern expectations.

AVENTHO 200: Precision Meets Premium ANC

The AVENTHO 200 is Beyerdynamic’s flagship over-ear headphone that fuses studio-quality sound with advanced noise cancellation.

Stepping squarely into the ring with Sony, Bose, and Apple, the AVENTHO 200 is Beyerdynamic’s answer to premium active noise cancellation headphones. At its heart are 45 mm drivers crafted in Germany, a nod to the company’s unwavering pursuit of audio purity. Supporting aptX Adaptive and aptX Lossless codecs, it promises high-resolution wireless sound for those who demand the best on their favorite platforms.

But this isn’t just about sound quality. The AVENTHO 200 packs a robust feature set, including a four-microphone ANC system and a transparency mode—perfect for tuning into your environment without sacrificing immersion. The battery life is a standout: over 60 hours of playback with ANC off, effortlessly eclipsing many rivals. And when time is tight, a quick 15-minute charge delivers a whopping 16 hours of listening. Weighing in at a featherlight 262 grams, the headphones sport aluminum alloy yokes, a plush PU leather headband, and boast an IP54 rating for dust and moisture resistance—ready for everyday adventures.

AMIRON 200: The Athlete’s Open-Ear Companion

AMIRON 200 open-ear headphones designed for athletes, blending sound clarity with active lifestyle durability.

For those who prefer to keep moving without missing a beat, the AMIRON 200 open-ear headphones are the perfect match. Designed for athletes, these earbuds feature flexible ear hooks that lock in securely during runs or workouts, ensuring they won’t budge no matter the activity. Unlike traditional earbuds, their open acoustic design lets in ambient sounds, a vital safety feature for runners and cyclists navigating busy streets while still delivering rich highs, balanced mids, and punchy bass.

When it comes to stamina, the AMIRON 200 doesn’t disappoint. They offer up to 11 hours of playback on a single charge, with a charging case that extends total listening time to 36 hours. If your earbuds die mid-workout, a turbo 5-minute charge grants 90 minutes of playback—seriously convenient. The case supports both USB-C and wireless charging, while Bluetooth 5.3 with multipoint connectivity ensures smooth switching between devices. Dual microphones with noise cancellation keep calls crisp, even outdoors. Plus, the IP54 rating guarantees sweat and dust resistance, making these headphones a rugged companion for all your active pursuits.

AMIRON ZERO: Embracing the Open-Ear Revolution

AMIRON ZERO’s innovative open-ear clip design offers comfort and awareness without plugging ears.

Perhaps the most inventive of the bunch, the AMIRON ZERO adopts a groundbreaking open-ear clip design. These aren’t earbuds, nor are they bone conduction headphones—instead, a sleek C-shaped frame sits gently on the outer ear, never invading the ear canal. The result? Incredible all-day comfort coupled with full situational awareness, perfect for professionals or commuters who want their soundtrack without tuning out the world entirely.

Light as a feather at 6 grams per side, the AMIRON ZERO connects through Bluetooth 5.4 for stable, energy-efficient streaming. Users can expect up to 20 hours of playback including the charging case, and a 10-minute quick charge delivers 2 hours—ideal for a last-minute boost before heading out. Thoughtful touches like a reinforced metal hinge on the USB-C charging case underscore Beyerdynamic’s commitment to quality. With an IP54 rating, these headphones handle splashes and dust with ease, and the companion app’s 5-band EQ lets you tailor the sound, a crucial feature for open-ear listening where ambient noise can compete.

By recognizing that different listeners require different tools—from immersive noise-canceling headphones to open-ear designs that embrace the ambient world—Beyerdynamic is not just playing catch-up. They’re setting a new benchmark, blending heritage sound quality with modern wireless convenience and style.
