Sony, represented in Qatar by Modern House, announced the launch of the 1000X THE COLLEXION™ headphones, a new and luxurious addition to the award-winning 1000X series, in the local market. These headphones are designed from high-quality materials with attention to detail, offering a new vision of the 1000X series philosophy. The new edition celebrates the 10th anniversary of the launch of the famous 1000X series from Sony. Since the launch of the MDR-1000X headphones in 2016, the series has redefined the personal listening experience by combining exceptional sound quality, intelligent noise-cancelling technologies, and ergonomic design, bringing listeners closer to the creativity of artists, regardless of the user’s surroundings. In conjunction with this release, Sony revealed the new Sandstone color for the famous WH-1000XM6 headphones equipped with advanced noise cancellation technologies. The new edition is available in all FNAC branches in Lagoona Mall, Doha Festival City, Place Vendôme, as well as in the Modern House store on Salwa Road, in addition to major electronics stores in Qatar.
Luxurious design and exceptional comfort

The headband features a luxurious metal design with a matte, rough-brushed finish, combined with shiny, hand-polished accents. Each piece has been manufactured separately by skilled craftsmen to increase durability and elegance of design. The soft faux leather, which was developed over two years, adds touches of elegance and sophistication. While the metal buttons and integrated microphone holes maintain the simple, streamlined design, enhancing the attractiveness of the headphones in terms of appearance and feel.
The headphones are available in two colors: platinum and black, each color combining elegant simplicity with elegant metallic contrast.
The 1000X THE COLLEXION headphones provide exceptional levels of comfort when worn for a long period, thanks to the innovative design of their structure that supports extended listening sessions. The wide ear cushions fit naturally around the ears for improved contact and pressure distribution, while the wide, padded headband distributes weight evenly for added comfort during use.
A whole new standard for sound quality
The 1000X THE COLLEXION headphones deliver wide, high-fidelity soundstages, specifically designed to deliver comfortable and immersive listening experiences.
Sony also collaborated with a number of Grammy Award-winning and nominated audio production engineers to fine-tune the audio tuning of the 1000X THE COLLEXION headphones. Their expertise has contributed to providing smoother singing voices, precise balance between musical instruments, and rich vocal dynamics.

1000X THE COLLEXION also expands the 360 Reality Audio Upmix (360 Upmix) range to include three different modes. New 360 Upmix modes transform the stereo sounds of songs, movies and games into richly detailed surround sound experiences, bringing a unique sense of realism to listening experiences. These modes can be controlled through the Listening Mode button, with the ability to choose between using 360 Upmix technology for music, cinema, or games.
Incredible performance continues the legacy of the 1000X Series
1000X THE COLLEXION maintains the same noise cancellation quality that the 1000X Series is known for, using the same technology found in the critically acclaimed WH-1000XM6.
The headphones are equipped with MULTI-NOISE SENSOR technology, which includes 12 microphones, in addition to the Adaptive NC Optimizer technology, which is also present in the WH-1000XM6 headphones, to provide distinguished performance and high accuracy in noise cancellation in different usage environments.
The 1000X THE COLLEXION headphones also offer all the benefits that Sony’s 1000X series is known for, including high-quality sound in phone calls, easy operation and smooth communication, as well as long battery life of up to 24 hours.
Innovative design
Based on universal design principles that take into account the needs of users with limited vision or limited hands, the 1000X THE COLLEXION comes with a carrying case with a magnetic closure to reduce the effort needed to open and carry the case. Sony continues to expand the range of color options available from the WH-1000XM6 headphones to suit different tastes, as today the new Sandstone color joins the range of colors available for these wireless headphones equipped with noise-cancelling technologies, with streamlined and elegant finishes that complement the pioneering audio performance for which this series is famous. Sandstone represents the fifth color version of the WH-1000XM6, expanding the range of color options available and giving users additional options to express their distinct personal tastes and style.
