USB-C Hi-Fi Headphones
Kensington USB-C Hi-Fi Headphones K97456WW deliver audio through 40mm drivers tuned for a wide dynamic range and clear sound. A built-in safe-listening limiter caps output at 94dB to help protect hearing during long sessions. The adjustable padded headband and leatherette-wrapped foam ear pads are designed for universal comfort across ages. They connect via USB-C to devices running Windows, macOS, iOS, Android or Chrome OS.
Wired USB-C listeners and volume-conscious users
These headphones suit students, remote workers and office users who want a simple plug-and-play USB-C audio solution with a volume safeguard. They are not suited for buyers who require wireless freedom, analog connectivity, active noise cancellation or a boom microphone for calls.
94dB safe-listening limit
The 94dB maximum output level is the key specification that decides whether this model meets a buyer's hearing-protection needs. It enforces a lower ceiling than many standard headphones, making it appropriate for environments where volume control is a priority.

Questions about this item
Will the 40mm drivers or ear pads need replacement after heavy daily use?
The 40mm drivers are built for long-term performance, and the leatherette-wrapped foam ear pads can be replaced if they wear out over time.
Does the 94dB safe-listening limiter engage automatically during extended sessions?
Yes, the limiter caps output at 94dB whenever the headphones are powered, preventing excessive volume during all-day use.
How warm do the ear cups get and how much power do they draw from a USB-C port during continuous operation?
Passive USB-C power keeps consumption low, and the padded leatherette cups stay comfortable without noticeable heat build-up during long periods.
