- Reviewed in the United States on July 1, 2024These headphones are nice. I'd been admiring them while traveling and seeing them in shops and decided to give them a try. I'm happy with the purchase. Sound is good as expected and they feel and look like quality headphones. As with most over ear headphones, my ears get hot so they aren't a pair that I'd wear for hours unless the AC is working really well. On the noise canceling aspect, there is some noise leak through, but you can tell the difference on a plane.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2024nice set of wireless/wired headphones. Very musical and high fidelity sound. Has all the blue tooth codecs you could want. Noise cancellation is good but not as good as Sony or Bose. They are comfortable to wear for long periods and with glasses. They are large and don't fold so the case is big as well. Used mainly at home and office. When I travel I use my foldable Bose NC headphones with outstanding noise cancelation. The aware function works extremely well.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 28, 2023I wanted to love these headphones. I have one other pair of BT headphones, the Austrian Audio Hi-x25BT headphones, which are priced much lower than these Shure Aonic 50 Gen 2 headphones.
The Shures have more BT protocols (compared to most headphones), they have lots of modern features, they have noise canceling, and they feel tougher and sturdier than most headphones I've owned.
SOUND. The Shure Aonic 50 sound signature is very scooped in the mids, the bass is pulled back compared to most, and there's some odd brightness that sometimes is nice but often has been irritating or harsh depending on the album. And at first they sounded very muddy in the low end. It took me a while to get decent sound out of them.
Here's what I did to get decent sound out of them. First of all, I wasn't able to EQ up the bass too much, it doesn't stand up well to more than a few dB. In the Shure PLAY app, I EQed the bass shelf up at 50 Hz by just +3.0 dB with a gradual slope of 1.9 oct. That seems to be the best I can do for balancing the weak bass without making everything muddy. Most importantly, the bass sounded weak at first due to what I assume to be a bad fit. After a day of use, the pads adjusted and they did fit better and sound tighter in the low end. The other thing that needed fixing was the scooped mids. I added a wide parametric EQ boost of +3.5 dB at 460 Hz, with a width of 1.7 oct. They could use more in the mids, honestly, but I'm trying to not push my luck and risk going too far. Lastly, they have a boosted sharpness from 4000 to 5000 Hz, so I had EQ that down with a -1.5 dB dip at 4500 Hz with a narrow bandwidth of 1.5 oct. Those three EQ adjustments have made them really well rounded. There are a few strange resonance issues in the highs (e.g. a track I heard with whistling suddenly got really sharp and irritating) but overall pretty good.
Surprisingly, turning the ANC on and off doesn't change the sound much at all, if you're in a quiet room. So, that's really nice
COMFORT. These headphones are small, hot, tight, and ill-fitting on my XL head. My old cheaper Austrian Audio Hi-X25bt headphones are FAR more comfortable than the Shures. The Shures don't extend far enough; they barely fit over my head when extended all the way. The cups are small; my ears don't fit inside the cups. My ears are touching the ear pads all around top bottom and back. Seriously, I feel like these headphones are crumpling my ears up in to little balls. And they're hot and sweaty feeling, too. I've worn them for 30 minutes just now, and my ears already feel hot. The Austrian Audio Hi-X25bt, by comparison, are light and cool and have lots of room inside. My wife has the Sennheiser Momentum 4 headphones, which in comparison have similarly small ear cups etc, similar to the Shures, though the Shures are heavier feeling and have a much stronger clamp force. When I try the Sennheisers, they also don't fit around my ears, but it doesn't seem as uncomfortable because they are light and sit happily on top of my ears. I can't stress enough how horrible the Shure Aonic 50 gen 2 fit is for folks with big ears. It's bad
The Shures look and feel more modern and fashionable etc, compared to the Austrian Audio. I think they feel sturdier than the Sennheiser Momentum 4s as well, but then Sennheiser has a reputation for making lightweight headphones that last forever despite feeling "plasticky." These Shures are not plasticky, they are really sturdy. The cups are plastic but that's probably useful for acoustics and keeping the weight down.
If you have small ears, strong air conditioning, and you like a bright scooped sound, these headphones are for you. And their features and the app etc are really well implemented. They just don't compare well to my older much cheaper bt headphones from Austrian Audio, and that means I regret purchasing them.

- Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 2023I’ve purchased the Sure Aonic 50 Gen 2 model from Amazon 3 days ago. I also have the 1st generation which I’ve used the past couple years. The Aonic 2nd generation has rich, deep, and realistic sound. The Shure play app has a great equalizer. A person can make these headphones sound any way they want. I’ve had many headphones and I personally like the sound of the Shure Aonic 50 gen 2 the best. The noise canceling is excellent and doesn’t change the original sound. I am happy with my purchase and would recommend these headphones to anybody who wants wonderful sound.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2024What should you expect:
- high quality sound to the point that your favorite songs start to sound disgustingly clear (which can be fixed with equalizer though)
- not a very punchy bass (equalizer to help you here as well)
- significant clamping force (I got used to it after some time)
- not a "popular" brand, people don't know about Shure unless they are from sound industry
- noise cancelation is just "ok", but personally I don't mind that a lot
- you can connect it to your laptop/phone via usb type-c cable and that just works without additional setup
- your voice in calls is clear, no complains from others
- BT connection is stable
I was not happy with my purchase for the first month, but now I'm really happy after some adjustments.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 14, 2024Great sound quality, detail. Heavier than most Bluetooth. Charge lasts a long time.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 23, 2024I really like the construction. The metal construction and soft leather scream premium. Seems a little on the heavy side so, it’s probably not meant to be worn for extended periods. I especially like the removable ear cups. Not really a fan of touch pads, so the recessed buttons are great, that being said, the button placement is a little difficult to get used to. Secondly, I love the sound, both wired and wireless. It sounds “clearer” than a lot of overpriced headphones, and with the app, the sound is significantly better. I took advantage of the Prime Day sale and saved.

Daniel SchneiderReviewed in Germany on October 7, 2023
5.0 out of 5 stars Super zufrieden, trotz kleinerer Minuspunkte
Ich habe den Kopfhörer jetzt einige Tage intensiv genutzt, zuhause und auf Reisen, und bin insgesamt wirklich sehr zufrieden. Ich hatte schon länger nach einem Wireless Headset gesucht, mit dem man in erster Linie klanglich sehr gut Musik hören kann, was sich aber auch zum gelegentlichen Telefonieren bzw. für Video Calls eignet. Die meisten wireless Geräte haben einen Fokus auf Noise Cancelling, aber das war/ist mir gar nicht so wichtig. Ich war deswegen auch weniger zB bei Bose am schauen, als zB bei Sennheiser. Von Shure besitze ich schon länger die Wireless In Ear Lösung und verschiedene kabelgebundene In Ears, von Sennheiser hab ich normale Kopfhörer.
Die Aonic 50 Gen 2 haben einige Stärken, die ich sofort uneingeschränkt bestätigen kann:
- Absolut problemlose Konnektivität über Bluetooth, auch zwei Geräte gleichzeitig bzw. im Wechsel, dabei sehr gute Reichweite bzw. störungsfreie Übertragung
- Guter Klang, noch besser mit EQ Optimierung über die App, auch beliebig bass-stark einstellbar
- Guter Tragekomfort auf dem Kopf und auf den Ohren, trotz des hohen Gewichts; mittlerer Anpressdruck, Ohren werden nicht zu warm
- Sehr hochwertig und stabil, super robuste Bügel, sehr schönes Kunstleder und schöne Kunststoff-Oberflächen
- Sehr laut über Bluetooth
- Lange Akkulaufzeit, auch bei aktivem NC und hoher Lautstärke
- Viele gute Einstellmöglichkeiten in der App
- Überraschend gute Klangqualität der Mikrophone beim Telefonieren (natürlich trotzdem empfindlich gegen Wind und Umgebungsgeräusche)
Ich bin wie gesagt sehr zufrieden mit dem Kopfhörer und werde ihn auf jeden Fall behalten. Trotzdem noch einige Punkte, die vielleicht nicht ganz perfekt sind:
- Die Bedienung über die kleinen physischen Tasten an der rechten Ohrmuschel ist etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig. Ich finde die grds. besser als irgendwelche fehleranfälligen Sensoren, aber man muss schon etwas feinfühlig danach tasten. Ich habe die Play/Pause Taste auch schon häufiger versehentlich gedrückt, weil man da leicht dagegen tippt.
- Der Klang sollte nach eigenem Geschmack über die App optimiert werden. Die parametrischen Equalizer sind allerdings für Anfänger ungeeignet, und Fortgeschrittene können sich in stundenlangem Herumfummeln verlieren. Ich habe am Ende Bass und Mitten etwas angehoben und Höhen etwas abgesenkt, vereinfacht ausgedrückt.
- Der Kopfhörer ist schon ziemlich groß, sieht auf dem Kopf eher wuchtig als stylish aus (falls das für jemanden wichtig wäre), lässt sich auch nicht so klein verstauen, und das mitgelieferte Case ist mir viel zu klobig
- Der Anschluss für analoges Klinkenkabel hat nur eine 2,5mm Buchse, nicht 3,5mm, dafür muss man also immer ein Spezialkabel dabei haben, wenn man ihn nutzen möchte. Der Kopfhörer ist abgesehen davon auch deutlich leiser über Klinke oder USB. Ich konnte ihn übrigens im HiRes Modus über USB und Apple Camera Connection Kit (Adapter Lightning auf USB-A) am iPhone betreiben, auch über USB-C direkt am Android Handy. Das hat mich zwar technisch befriedigt, dass es überhaupt geht, aber in der Praxis werde ich das vermutlich selten zusammen stöpseln, ist schon unhandlich.
- Die digitale Raumklang-Simulation „Spatializer“ ist mE klanglich misslungen, werde ich wohl nie nutzen

1.0 out of 5 stars Ok product - amazon retour needs improvement
The Aonic50 is a great product for Hi-res audio. Its ANC feature is quite poor compared to other competitors. For example, when the train enters in the tunnel you can hear some bumps and hizz. The two anc modes have no difference at all (to my ears).
Special remark to Amazon retour deals: I bought it expecting "like new" product (as described). However I got a product in which its ear pads were with clear wear and dirt. See pictures for more info. To avoid all hazzle I did not return. But it deserves more than 25 euros discount comparing to the new price.
I would try before buying.

5.0 out of 5 stars Tremendous sound quality - my most important factor!
Finally decided on the Aonic 50 gen2 after weeks of agonizing amongst the myriad of ldac anc headphones out there. Decided on them after reading/watching various reviews and remembering an old Shure headphone I had many years ago.
Very glad I did, the out of the box sound was fine, but after tweaking the excellent eq in the Shureplus app and adding the music spacializer I'm delighted with the audio. Basically added a slight bass boost and left everything else flat after fiddling.
The treble is excellent with no sibilance and great extension to the highest pitches. Mids are excellent, vocals sound superb for male/female artists, guitars sound lovely in acoustic or electric. As for the bass with a 4db boost they're grin inducing, sub bass is excellent, as is mid bass. Tightly controlled and very engaging.
The app takes moments to figure out, everything is very well done and the parametric eq is a delight. The spacializer has particularly surprised me as I really didn't think I'd care, but what a difference it makes to the sense of soundstage width and depth, a very pleasant surprise.
Basically I adore the sound and to my ear the ANC is excellent and has little to no effect on sound quality. For my intended at home use they are perfect.
As for the headphones - build quality is superb, metal hinges, very positive ratchet to the headband extenders which stay put when adjusted. Very comfortable earcups, nice headband design and padding. Very impressed!
Love them, thank you Shure, so glad you made them.
