Sonos will release its first wireless headphones in 2024, according to a report from Bloomberg that cites sources familiar with the matter. The headphones are projected to cost between $400 and $500, which would place them in direct competition with Apple’s AirPods Max and Sony’s WH-1000XM5, two of the leading noise-canceling headphones on the market. The report suggests the new wireless cans, code-named “Duke,” could appear as early as April, and will come in Sonos’ two main colors, black and white.
Earlier in November, Sonos CEO, Patrick Spence told investors that in 2024, the company will enter into a “new multibillion-dollar category in the second half of the year that will complement our current offering, delight customers, and drive immediate revenue.” Given the timing cited by Bloomberg, it seems likely Spence was referencing the as-yet unannounced Sonos headphones.
