Sony launches $650 1000X The Collexion headphones with luxury design

Sony has released the 1000X The Collexion, an ultra-premium edition of its 1000X headphones, to celebrate a decade of the product line. This new model features a luxurious leather and metal design, improved comfort with thicker padding and reduced clamping force, and new unidirectional carbon drivers for enhanced sound detail. It also incorporates AI-powered DSEE Ultimate upscaling and new spatial audio modes, though its folding mechanism is less convenient than previous models and the $650 price point is significantly higher.
