All the vivid details.
AirPods Max deliver stunningly detailed, high-fidelity audio for an unparalleled listening experience. Each part of the custom-built driver works to produce sound with ultra-low distortion across the audible range — so you’ll hear every note with a new sense of clarity.
Personalised Spatial Audio
with dynamic head tracking2 gives you a cinema‑like experience with sound that surrounds you for movies, TV shows and games. Using built‑in gyroscopes and accelerometers, AirPods Max and your iPhone, iPad, Mac or Apple TV track the subtle motion of your head, anchoring sounds to your device.
Adaptive EQ
tailors sound to the bespoke fit and seal created by the ear cushions. Inward‑facing microphones measure what you’re hearing, then adjust the frequencies of your music to deliver a rich, consistent experience that faithfully reproduces every note.
High-fidelity details.
