We will therefore have to wait until next fall to see the Philips TAH8000E circumaural headphones appear in stores with their high-end specifications for an affordable announced price.

"Sound quality is excellent thanks to Philips' large 40mm graphene-coated drivers and high-resolution audio playback (LDAC), as well as AAC and LC3 compatibility and spatial audio for immersive sound," Philips said.
Availability announced for September. Suggested price still unknown (the one mentioned in the photo above should not be the one practiced in France) but Philips nevertheless announces an aggressive price in order to compete with the big names in the sector, for example the future Sony WH-1000XM6 expected this summer too.
