INZONE Buds

360 Spatial Sound for Gaming

With 360 Spatial Sound on INZONE Buds you can hear the direction and distance of your opponent, so you’ll always be one step ahead of the competition. Through its years of work on industry-leading headphone technology, Sony has developed the INZONE Buds to offer a sound field tailored to you.

INZONE Buds can be optimized for your ear canal with Sound Tone Personalization. The earbuds play test sounds from driver units and use feedback microphones to measure how the sound fills your ear canal. Based on the acoustic analysis, the sound is then personalized using the INZONE Hub PC application, ensuring a truly spatial listening experience.
