The Denon AH-C840NCW are 100% true wireless in-ear earbuds engineered for discerning listeners who demand both premium sound quality and modern convenience. Featuring Adaptive Hybrid Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), proprietary acoustic tuning, and advanced driver technology, these earbuds deliver a true hi-fi experience in a compact and comfortable form factor—whether you’re commuting, working out, or relaxing at home.
Premium Comfort with Intelligent Controls
Designed for long-term comfort and a secure fit, the AH-C840NCW includes four sizes of silicone ear tips (S, M, L, S-Long) to ensure an optimal acoustic seal. Touch-sensitive controls on each earbud allow for seamless operation of playback, calls, and ANC functions without the need for physical buttons. A smart pause function automatically halts playback when either earbud is removed and resumes when reinserted—ideal for dynamic daily use.
Denon Sound Master Tuning: Authentic Hi-Fi in a Wireless Format
Unlike many consumer earbuds that artificially boost bass frequencies, Denon’s Sound Master tuning, led by audio engineering veteran Shinichi Yamauchi, aims for tonal accuracy and natural balance. The AH-C840NCW delivers a spacious and realistic soundstage, with preciseimaging and refined detail across the frequency spectrum. Bass is present when the track demands it—tight, deep, and controlled—without overwhelming the mids or highs.
This tuning philosophy is rooted in Denon’s legacy of reference-class audio equipment, including legendary models such as the DP-S1 CD transport and DA-S1 DAC, both of which helped define the digital audio landscape in the 1990s.
For users seeking customization, the companion Denon Headphones app provides a 5-band EQ and profile presets, enabling you to tailor the sound signature to your preferences without compromising fidelity.
All-Day Battery Life with Quick Charging
The AH-C840NCW supports up to 7 hours of continuous playback with ANC enabled, with an additional 17 hours provided by the included charging case, for a total of 24 hours of on-the-go use. A Fast Charge feature gives you up to 1 hour of playback from just 5 minutes of charging—ideal for busy schedules and unexpected power gaps. Charging is handled via the included USB-C cable.
Adaptive Hybrid ANC and Ambient Awareness
The integrated Adaptive Hybrid ANC system actively monitors both external noise and in-ear acoustics in real time to dynamically adjust cancellation levels for optimal performance. Whether you’re on a plane, in the office, or on a busy street, background noise is effectively attenuated without compromising audio quality.
A dedicated Transparency Mode allows external sounds to pass through on demand—crucial for awareness in public spaces or when engaging in brief conversations.
Crystal-Clear Voice Communication
Thanks to beamforming microphone arrays and advanced signal processing, the AH-C840NCW delivers exceptional voice clarity during calls—even in noisy environments. The system prioritizes vocal capture while minimizing ambient interference, ensuring consistent communication performance. Additionally, Mono Mode allows for single-ear use, adding flexibility for calls or extended listening sessions.
