Denon True Wireless Earbud Debut Revealed
Denon gets involved in the true wireless scene with not one but two new models that promise best-in-class sound quality.
The Denon AH-C830NCW noise cancelling earbuds and Denon AH-C630W wireless earphones feature large-diameter dynamic drivers tested and tuned by Denon Sound Masters.
Denon says that the AH-C830NCW (above) and AH-C630W (below) true wireless earphones have been designed using extensive ear canal simulations, enabling engineers to sculpt the perfect shape for all users. Additionally, each earbud comes with three sizes of silicon tips.
Both models are IPX4 rated for durability, making them safe to wear even during rain or heavy workouts.
The Denon AH-C830NCW Noise Cancelling Earbuds benefits from Google Fast Pair for easy and convenient device pairing as well as Denon's next-generation active noise cancelling (ANC) system. Denon's ANC tech leverages dual-microphones in each earbud and advanced processing to reduce ambient noise. In addition, with Transparency Mode, the noise-cancelling and ambient sound mix functions can be switched quickly with a simple touch sensor. Meanwhile, a wear detection function automatically plays and pauses music depending on if the earbud is in or out.
Those two mics also utilise a beamforming formation along with advanced digital signal processing, while a third microphone takes advantage of the ear canal's natural shielding against wind and ambient noise to bring additional voice clarity.
The Denon AH-C630W Wireless Earbuds use a sophisticated microphone for voice calls, providing clear, wireless communication.
Battery stamina is quoted as lasting up to 6 hours of wireless Bluetooth music on a single charge and up to 24 hours total, with additional charging cycles from the included charging case for the Noise Cancelling Earbuds. The others are curiously quoted to give you up to 4.5 hours of wireless Bluetooth music on a single charge and up to 18 hours total, with additional charging cycles from the included charging case. Recharging the case comes via the bundled USB-C cable.
Both models are available now in black or white. The Noise Cancelling Earbuds (£139/ €159) feature a glossy finish with silver accents, while the Wireless Earbuds (£89/ €99) get a slick-looking matte finish.

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.
