Mark Levinson Announces No.5909 Wireless ANC Headphones
Mark Levinson has unveiled its first-ever premium noise-cancelling wireless headphones, the No.5909, at CES 2022.
The Mark Levinson №5909 features a lightweight anodised aluminium frame and metallic painted ear cups, with a leather headband and replaceable ear cushions. Each earcup houses a 40mm Beryllium-coated driver with the output naturally tuned to the parent company's signature “Harman Curve”.
The №5909 headphones utilise Bluetooth 5.1 with LDAC, AAC, and aptX for wireless listening. Alternatively, cabled audio enjoyment is provided via the bundled USB-C to 3.5mm audio cables along with jack and mini-jack adaptors. Mark Levinson states that the headphones boast “24-bit/96kHz processing and an acoustic response up to 40kHz”.
We're told to expect the No.5909 to be able to deliver up to 34 hours of standard playback or 30 hours with adaptive active noise-cancellation engaged. Furthermore, a 15 minute quick charge via USB-C translates to six hours of play time.
As expected from premium noise-cancellers these days, the №5909's 'Ambient Aware' mode allows you to be more aware of your surroundings and announcements. Additionally, a four-microphone array equipped with 'Smart Wind Adaption' should keep your phone calls clear.
The Mark Levinson №5909 headphones are priced at $999 in the USA with finish options of Pearl Black, Ice Pewter and Radiant Red.

applause awards
Each time StereoNET reviews a product, it is considered for an Applause Award. Winning one marks it out as a design of great quality and distinction – a special product in its class, on the grounds of either performance, value for money, or usually both.
Applause Awards are personally issued by StereoNET’s global Editor-in-Chief, David Price – who has over three decades of experience reviewing hi-fi products at the highest level – after consulting with our senior editorial team. They are not automatically given with all reviews, nor can manufacturers purchase them.
The StereoNET editorial team includes some of the world’s most experienced and respected hi-fi journalists with a vast wealth of knowledge. Some have edited popular English language hi-fi magazines, and others have been senior contributors to famous audio journals stretching back to the late 1970s. And we also employ professional IT and home theatre specialists who work at the cutting edge of today’s technology.
We believe that no other online hi-fi and home cinema resource offers such expert knowledge, so when StereoNET gives an Applause Award, it is a trustworthy hallmark of quality. Receiving such an award is the prerequisite to becoming eligible for our annual Product of the Year awards, awarded only to the finest designs in their respective categories. Buyers of hi-fi, home cinema, and headphones can be sure that a StereoNET Applause Award winner is worthy of your most serious attention.
