A 1% change for 100% more excitement Variety of Bluetooth format support for high quality wireless listening
The EH3 NC is the FiiO's first noise cancelling headphone with viariety of Bluetooth formats support – not only are the ACC/SBC lossy formats supported, but also the aptX/aptX Low Latency/LDAC/aptX HD lossless formats too. The EH3 NC gives audiophiles and music lovers a truly viable option to enjoy wireless freedom without sacrificing sound quality.
Giving you peace and quiet on your journey
ADI 2-way, 4-microphone array digital noise cancelling
Inside the EH3 NC is a high-end ADI noise-cancelling DSP chip, which works in conjunction with a 2-way, 4-microphone array altogether in a feedforward hybrid active noise-cancelling design. This design provides excellent noise cancellation under any kind of situation, even in challenging environments like in airplanes or vehicles.
The EH3 NC’s 4-microphone array first picks up ambient noise, which the built-in high-performance DSP chip then analyzes to emit a reverse signal to effectively cancel out the noise through destructive interference.
This allows the EH3 NC to dramatically shield you from and reduce noise, no matter what environment you are in. With noise-cancelling performance of 30+/-5dB, the EH3 NC’s noise-cancellation abilities are comparable to those of high-end ANC headphones.
Powerful rumbling bass
45mm drivers with double-sided titanium-plated diaphragm
Different from the typical 40mm drivers used in the same class of headphones, the large 45mm drivers with double-sided titanium-plated diaphragm utilized in the EH3 NC give dynamic and deep bass. With these drivers, playing your music will give you that extra rush of excitement.

Flagship Bluetooth chip CSR8675
Equipped with Bluetooth 5.0
Employed on the EH3 NC is Qualcomm’s flagship Bluetooth chip, the CSR8675 with support for Bluetooth 5.0. Not only does the CSR8675 efficiently transmit signals at high speed, it also effectively stabilizes signals and shields from external interference – making voice calls, gaming, and movie watching all more enjoyable.
Get into the world of music quickly
The built-in NFC allows the EH3 NC to quickly communicate with compatible devices via short-range wireless communication, and even supports being woken up and instantly by NFC - so you can jump into your music immediately without going through the cumbersome pairing process.
Just one listen to truly appreciate
FiiO’s new generation of acoustic tuning technology
From portable earphones to desktop amplifiers, FiiO has always been dedicated to pursuing the ultimate musical experience. When creating this headphone, we did not want to sacrifice sound quality just to get noise cancelling, as with so many other similar headphones. Thus, FiiO has developed a new generation of acoustic tuning technology that allows the EH3 NC to produce clear and realistic sound with deep and tight bass. And when combined with the excellent noise cancellation, you will experience sound you never thought was previously possible.
Pure plush luxury for your ears
Removable protein leather earpads
In order to achieve excellent isolation from outside noises, the earpads are made of protein leather with larger than normal polymers. Not only are these earpads comfortable and durable, they also allow the EH3 NC to isolate from noise better than the typical noise-cancelling headphone. The earpads are replaceable, and can be replaced with specially-designed breathable mesh earpads for more enjoyable listening during hot summers.
*Breathable mesh earpads sold separately
Fashionable design and performance
The EH3 NC’s sleek shape, lightweight body, and closed-back over-the-ear design may make it stylish, but that doesn’t mean it skimps on its performance. You will still hear crisp drums, rumbling bass, and melodious guitars with the utmost clarity in this headphone.
Just listen – no need to worry about the battery
The 1000mAh battery gives the EH3 NC about 50 hours playtime, with a standby time up to a whopping 1000 hours.
*Listening through Bluetooth only battery life is approx. 50 hours
*Listening through Bluetooth and noise cancelling active battery life is approx. 30 hours

Value for Money
94/100
The EH3NC delivers hard-hitting bass, soulful vocals and an unusually spacious closed-back soundstage, wrapped in exceptionally easygoing comfort. Soundnews highlights its warm, involving tuning and broad codec support, while Prime Audio Reviews praises its stable Bluetooth performance, natural imaging and surprisingly capable wired sound.
What Reviewers Are Saying
Pros
Warm, richly detailed sound with authoritative, controlled bass and especially natural, smooth vocals.
Spacious, holographic imaging for a closed-back wireless headphone, with convincing width and depth.
Excellent long-session comfort from its lightweight build, soft pads, padded headband and gentle clamp.
Rock-solid Bluetooth connectivity and effective cancellation of steady low-frequency noise, plus strong wired performance.
&
Cons
ANC audibly changes the tuning, adding bass warmth while making the midrange more congested and the soundstage more confined.
Noise cancelling is most effective against constant low-frequency sounds; higher-pitched and abrupt noises remain more audible.
SOUND QUALITY PERFORMANCE 92/100
Reviewers find the EH3NC warm, full-bodied and unusually spacious for a closed-back wireless headphone, with especially convincing bass, natural vocals and a smooth but extended top end. Its wired performance is repeatedly preferred; ANC reduces stage size and makes the presentation sound more enclosed.
Bass
93/100
Bass is repeatedly described as tight, fast and controlled, with authoritative sub-bass rumble and impressive slam when a track calls for it. It carries mild extra warmth and weight, but reviewers find it balanced rather than bloated.
Midrange
94/100
The midrange is a standout, praised as natural, present, smooth and soulful. Vocals are said to be emotive, richly rendered and clearly articulated without graininess or an unnatural emphasis toward either male or female voices.
Treble
91/100
FiiO tames the lower treble to avoid sibilance and listening fatigue, yet reviewers still hear clean extension, air and crisp cymbal decay higher up. The result is relaxed rather than aggressively bright, while retaining enough detail to keep music lively.
Resolution Detail
89/100
In wired mode, reviewers find the EH3NC surprisingly resolving for a Bluetooth-oriented headphone, with quick presentation and good clarity through the vocal range. Detail is described as clean and natural rather than spotlighted, while ANC operation is less convincing.
Soundstage Imaging
91/100
For a closed-back design, the EH3NC earns strong praise for a spacious, natural and occasionally out-of-head presentation. Width, depth and positional cues are considered convincing, though ANC noticeably narrows the stage and brings the image closer.
Dynamics
91/100
Reviewers report substantial energy, kick and bass impact, with the large drivers responding especially well to dynamically lively music. Its punchy, fast character gives electronic and rhythm-led material a satisfying sense of drive.
Assessments of Build Quality, Usability, and Overall Propositions.
Comfort Fit
94/100
Both reviews praise long-session comfort. The relatively light 293 g weight, soft earpads, padded headband and gentle clamp are said to make the EH3NC easy to wear for hours without fatigue.
Build Quality
84/100
The lightweight plastic construction feels well executed rather than cheap, with neither reviewer reporting creaks or adjustment noise. Long-term durability remains less certain, however, as one reviewer explicitly notes that only time will tell.
Features Usability
91/100
Bluetooth performance receives particularly strong praise for stable connections and no reported dropouts, even through walls. ANC is effective against steady low-frequency noise such as engine drone, although it compromises the open, spacious sound heard without it.
Value for Money
94/100
At the reviewed $199.99 price, Soundnews considers its sound quality unmatched among ANC alternatives, while Prime Audio Reviews calls it good value for money. That praise is strongest for listeners who can use wired or non-ANC playback when sound quality matters most.
