Engineered from decades of stage and studio experience, the second generation of the AONIC 50 Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones deliver premium, high-fidelity audio with improved active noise cancelling technology. New Spatialized Audio takes your listening experience outside of your headphones to a whole new level by replicating the experience of listening through high-end speakers. A modern “all-black” design and up to 45 hours of battery life keep the music going in comfort and style, while customizable EQ and environment mode provide a personalized, unparalleled audio experience.
Headphones automatically enter pairing mode when you power them on the first time or when they have not been previously paired with this audio source.
Headphones automatically pair with previously paired devices when you power them on. After a few seconds you will hear “Connected.”
Note: If the pairing fails on the first attempt, repeat the process from the beginning.
To customize the listening features of your device, download the free ShurePlus™ PLAY app for iOS and Android.
AONIC 50 headphones support Bluetooth multipoint pairing which enables the headphones to be connected to two devices at the same time. AONIC 50 will remain connected to both devices and receive inputs alternately.
If you are having difficulty with your AONIC 50 headphones and multipoint pairing, follow these steps:
You will not hear a "Connected" prompt but you will see that the headphones are connected to both of the devices.
Use the ShurePlus PLAY app to select how you want the audio to work in multipoint pairing:

The ShurePlus PLAY Mobile Listening App is a high-resolution music player with advanced EQ controls. Play uncompressed audio files with your iOS or Android mobile device using the music tab. Use built-in Shure EQ presets to customize the sound, or create your own EQ presets in the settings tab. Unlock environment mode and ANC features by connecting to Shure wireless and True Wireless products in the device tab.
AONIC 50, Gen 2 headphones use all of your PLAY app DSP settings, regardless of how you are connected to the audio source and even after you have closed the app. The DSP occurs on the headphones and the app provides the access to customize those hardware settings.
Environment mode allows you to hear the ambient noise around you. This is especially useful when you want to listen to music or are on a phone call, yet you still want to be aware of the sounds around you.
To use environment mode, push the vertical switch on the back of the right earcup to the up position.
In the ShurePlus PLAY app, you can adjust the environment mode across eleven levels:
The Hear myself on calls setting allows you to hear your own voice on phone calls at a volume based on your Environment Mode setting. When switched off, the mics in the headphones still pick up your voice for phone calls, it's just that you are not able to hear yourself.
Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) allows you to suppress some or all of the noise around you. This is especially useful when traveling where road noise in a car, bus, or train, or jet noise in an airplane can force you to increase the volume.
To use ANC, push the vertical switch on the back of the right earcup to the down position.
In the ShurePlus PLAY app, you can adjust the ANC between four levels of noise cancellation:
The Spatializer uses digital processing to make it sound like you're in a larger setting using a pair of loudspeakers. The Spatializer options are:
AONIC 50, Gen 2 headphones have two different USB modes, selectable in the PLAY app:
AONIC 50, Gen 2 headphones supports the Hi-Res streaming playback of the supported audio file formats (WAV, FLAC, and others) over USB for the ultimate audiophile listening experience. You access the feature through the PLAY app, USB Audio Mode.
You select Hi-Res Listening, switching it from the factory default mode of Communication.
Note: The following features are not supported when in USB Hi-Res Listening mode:

There are default Equalizer settings when you first select the Equalizer option:
You can change the default settings to any of the equalizer options
You can duplicate both Shure and custom presets. Duplicating a preset is convenient if you like the way a preset sounds but you want to make and keep adjustments to the sound.
Select and adjust frequency, gain, and bandwidth in the equalizer.
The 4-band parametric equalizer is used to adjust the volume of independent, adjustable frequency ranges, to precisely shape the frequency response. The equalizer can be bypassed for a flat frequency response.
| Frequency | Select the center frequency of the filter to cut/boost. |
| Gain | Adjusts the level for a specific filter. |
| Bandwidth or Q | Adjusts the range of frequencies affected by the filter. The value is represented in octaves. |
Treble boost for improved speech intelligibility: Add a high shelf filter to boost frequencies greater than 1 kHz by 3-6 dB
Ambient HVAC noise reduction: Add a low cut filter to attenuate frequencies below 200 Hz
Reduce flutter echoes and sibilance: Identify the specific frequency range that "excites" the sound:
Reduce hollow, resonant sound: Identify the specific frequency range that "excites" the sound and lower it:
Use presets to quickly access commonly used listening scenarios. Seven selectable 4-band presets optimize settings for gain, equalization, and compression. Play a song and find the preset that you think suits the song best, and then adjust levels as needed.
| Preset | Application |
|---|---|
| Bass Boost | Increase low frequencies |
| Bass Cut | Decrease low frequencies |
| Treble Boost | Increase high frequencies |
| Treble Cut | Decrease high frequencies |
| Vocal Boost | Increase vocal clarity by emphasizing the vocal range |
| De-ess | Decrease vocal hiss/ sibilance in speech |
| Loudness | Clarity for listening at low volume. Both the bass and treble frequencies are boosted to make the overall sound feel louder. |
