THEY SAY money can’t buy happiness. Without a doubt, it can buy the $999 Mark Levinson No. 5909 head-phones, and without a doubt, these make me happy. The Mark Levinson No. 5909 headphones are the first headphones from this elite division of Harman. These over-ear headphones feature adaptive Active Noise Cancellation, USB-C wired connections and wireless Bluetooth with broad codec compatibility. With a simple app to fine tune ANC modes and bass response, the No. 5909 are one of the best wire-less noise-canceling headphones on the market.
The Mark Levinson No. 5909 are the first wireless headphones from this company that has always been synonymous with high-fidelity audio. They join amplifiers, pre-amps, CD players, turntables, and of course, luxury car audio systems. That these are tuned to the Harman Curve should come as no surprise and they are Hi-Res Audio certified.
The headphones use 40 mm beryllium-coated drivers for a full-range sound. The frequency response is rated at 20Hz-20kHz in active mode, and an impressive 10Hz-40kHz in passive mode. Maximum
