Sony Brings Luxury Listening to the Philippines with the New 1000X THE COLLEXION

When Sony introduced the 1000X series a decade ago, it helped redefine what premium wireless headphones could be. Over the years, the lineup became known for industry-leading noise cancellation, exceptional sound quality, and the kind of comfort that made long listening sessions effortless. This year, Sony takes that legacy in a new direction with the arrival of the 1000X THE COLLEXION, a premium addition to the award-winning series that places equal emphasis on craftsmanship, comfort, and modern luxury.

Officially launched in the Philippines, the 1000X THE COLLEXION isn’t positioned as simply another pair of flagship headphones. Instead, Sony describes it as a new expression of the 1000X philosophy—one that combines elevated materials, thoughtful design, and immersive audio technology into a listening experience that’s meant to be enjoyed for hours on end.

The headphones feature premium metal detailing paired with refined faux leather that Sony says took two years to develop. An ergonomic design, wider cushioned headband, and generously sized earcups are engineered for extended listening comfort, while the understated styling gives the headphones a timeless look that’s equally at home in the office, during travel, or while relaxing with your favorite playlist.

Inside, Sony equips the 1000X THE COLLEXION with a newly developed bespoke driver designed to deliver a spacious soundstage, clearer instrument separation, and natural vocals. The headphones also become the first Sony model to feature Edge AI-powered DSEE Ultimate, restoring detail to compressed music in real time, while enhanced 360 Reality Audio Upmix creates a more immersive experience across music, movies, and games.

Sony also carries over many of the features that made the 1000X series a favorite among travelers and audio enthusiasts, including its acclaimed noise-canceling technology, AI-enhanced call quality, multipoint connectivity, LE Audio support, and up to 24 hours of battery life.

The Philippine launch reflected the product’s premium positioning. Rather than a traditional tech presentation, Sony staged an immersive evening celebrating the intersection of sound, design, and craftsmanship. Guests were welcomed by Sony Philippines President and Managing Director Shuhei Sugihara and Marketing Director Kentaro Imamura, while a ballet-led product reveal and live performance by A-Team set the tone for the evening.

The event also featured a fashion showcase styled by Gian Romano, alongside the “Talk That Talk” panel discussion moderated by Rammy Bitong, where renowned fashion designer Rajo Laurel, creative director Daryl Chang, entrepreneur and lifestyle personality Mika Lagdameo, and Archie Carrasco, Chairman and CEO of AGC Power Holdings Corp., shared how music and sound continue to influence creativity, productivity, and self-expression.

Guests also explored Sony’s interactive Tech Showcase Lounge and the immersive Soundcapes experience, offering a closer look—and listen—to the engineering behind the new headphones.

Celebrating ten years of Sony’s legendary 1000X lineup, the 1000X THE COLLEXION represents the company’s latest step in blending premium craftsmanship with cutting-edge audio technology for listeners who value both performance and design.

The Sony 1000X THE COLLEXION is now available in the Philippines in Black and White for a suggested retail price of ₱36,999 through Sony Centres and authorized Sony dealers nationwide.
