Nocturne Audio · New
Silence, engineered.
Nocturne One reads the room two hundred times a second and erases it. What's left is only the music — carried on 40 mm carbon drivers for sixty straight hours.

Adaptive ANC
Hear nothing.
Or everything.
Eight microphones map the noise around you and a dedicated neural chip cancels it — up to 48 dB deep, retuned every five milliseconds. Tap once and Transparency lifts the world back in, voice-forward and natural.
Cancellation that adapts to the carriage, the cabin, the café.
Most ANC is tuned once, in a lab. Nocturne One retunes continuously — pressure changes on a flight, the low rumble of a train, a sudden espresso grinder — each profile computed on-device, never in the cloud.
Sound
40 millimetres of carbon, tuned by ear.
Carbon-composite diaphragms move faster and flex less than any driver we've built — bass you feel at the sternum, highs that never smear. Voiced over eleven months by human listeners, not target curves alone.
Lossless over USB-C. Spatial audio with head tracking.
Plug in and stream true 24-bit/96 kHz lossless — no codec compromise. Wireless, aptX Lossless and AAC cover every device you own. Flip on Spatial and the soundstage stays anchored in the room while you move through it.
Battery
Sixty hours. Charge it weekly, not nightly.
A full work-month of commutes on one charge, with ANC on. Down to zero? Ten minutes over USB-C buys you a transatlantic flight. The cells are user-replaceable at any Nocturne service point — this is a product built to outlive its battery.

★★★★★"The adaptive ANC is the first I've used that handles a pressurized cabin and a screaming toddler in the same hour without touching a setting."
Waveform WeeklyFlagship of the Year, shortlist
★★★★★"Sixty hours is not a spec, it's a personality change. I stopped thinking about charging entirely — and the replaceable cells mean I may never buy another pair."
Commute QuarterlyLong-term review, 4 months
★★★★★"Over USB-C these are honest studio monitors that happen to fold flat. The carbon drivers keep a grip on the low end that nothing wireless at this price manages."
