Although Fender is known for making some of the most iconic guitars over the past 80 years, the company is starting to get into premium consumer audio tech with a series of Bluetooth speakers and a new pair of noise-canceling wireless headphones with the Fender Audio Mix, which deliver rich studio-grade audio with deep and punchy bass.
Priced at $299 at FenderAudio.com, these headphones, which are also ShopBillboard’s pick for Best of CES 2026, feature top-tier hi-res lossless sound, a stylish and lightweight design, comfortable fit with soft memory foam earcups and long battery life of up to a whopping 100 hours per charge. They can even get an extra hour of playback with just a five-minute quick charge.
Equipped with 44mm audio drivers, the headphones can also deliver uncompressed music for true lossless music for high-quality streaming, with services such as Spotify Lossless, Apple Music, TIDAL, Amazon Music Unlimited, Qobuz and others, when wired. With these headphones, you’ll get the best quality audio possible.
However, what separates these headphones from other high-end pairs and what makes them a real game changer is their modular design. From the headstrap to the earcups, you can easily swap out different components with a series of magnetic pieces. So, if you’re not happy with the ear cushions’ colors, just swap them out for something that fits your personality. If the drivers are starting to get run down and worn, just swap them out for a new pair. In fact, even the battery is swappable, so down the line you could extend the headphones’ battery life to make them last longer.
Moreover, hidden in the left earcup is a small and removable USB-C transmitter (FWD Tx) that plugs into a smartphone to make it possible to wirelessly stream uncompressed audio from device to pair for CD quality sound. Along with practically no latency or lag, the Fender Audio Mix open up many possibilities that aren’t available with other premium wireless headphones.
Meanwhile, Fender Audio Mix Wireless Headphones have impressive active noise-canceling to block out background noise to focus on the fine details in your favorite music and podcast. In my use, I found the noise-canceling features to be very sturdy and reliable, especially during my daily commute to the office. I live and work in New York City, so these headphones have been a real blessing in making nearly all of the city noise go away with just a tap of a button.
Additionally, the headphones have full 360-degree spatial audio for music immersion. It feels like your favorite songs are completely surrounding you for a dynamic listening experience. The Fender Audio Mix Headphones sound and feel as premium and robust, as they are as sleek and stylish to wear. This pair really delivers studio-grade audio and strong noise-canceling features with an eye-catching and consumer-friendly design.
The Fender Audio Mix Headphones, which come in Skyscrapper Black and Olympic White, are available starting at $299 at FenderAudio.com and AccessoryJack.com.
