Cambridge Audio Melomania P100 SE – Over-Ear ANC Headphones, 100-Hour Battery

The Melomania P100 SE takes Cambridge Audio's over-ear wireless formula and refines it for longer, more comfortable listening. Built around Class A/B amplification and 40 mm composite drivers, it pairs hi-fi tuning with adaptive hybrid ANC and a user-replaceable battery that delivers up to 100 hours of playback. A solid choice for commuters, home listeners, and travellers who want one pair of headphones to handle it all.

Key Features

• Class A/B amplification: Cambridge Audio's amp topology powers the 40 mm drivers for a natural, dynamic response.
• 40 mm composite diaphragm: Three-layer driver design balances detail, bass weight, and low distortion.
• Adaptive hybrid ANC: Active noise cancellation with transparency mode and wind-noise suppression.
• Up to 100-hour battery: User-replaceable cell with quick-charge support — 5 minutes gives around 4 hours of playback (ANC off).
• Bluetooth 5.3 with hi-res codecs: aptX Lossless, aptX Adaptive, AAC, and SBC, plus low-latency gaming mode.
• Melomania Connect app: DynamEQ, 7-band EQ, six presets, wear detection, and firmware updates.

Customer Benefits

Whether you are listening at home, on a flight, or during your commute, the P100 SE keeps the sound consistent and the fit comfortable. Class A/B amplification gives the drivers room to breathe, while DynamEQ adjusts bass and treble as you change volume, so the character stays balanced. The replaceable battery and ear cushions mean the headphones are built to last beyond the typical wireless lifecycle.
