Source12Owner's manualhelpguide.sony.net/mdr/2981/v1/en/print.pdfRead 8 October 2026Printed page 25 of the current exact ULT WEAR Help Guide gives music playback after a full charge. AAC and SBC each allow up to 30 hours with ANC on or 50 hours with ANC and Ambient Sound Mode off. LDAC allows 25 hours with ANC on or 40 hours with both modes off. Powered analog playback allows 30 hours with ANC on or 50 hours with both modes off. Each named codec is retained in its own row. Page 26 warns that Equalizer, DSEE, voice-assistant wake words, Service Link, and the ULT Bass Control function shorten these maxima. Playback volume and LDAC bitrate are unspecified. Communication durations are excluded. The maker guide explicitly covers the ULT WEAR reference, including original model YY2981.14Maker product pagesony.jp/headphone/products/ULT_WEARRead 8 October 2026The Japanese product headline explicitly qualifies its AAC 30-hour ANC-on and 50-hour ANC-off claims with DSEE and equalizer off and other functions at their defaults. These named settings apply to that AAC claim. LDAC and SBC rows retain the separate current manual conditions, without inheriting this AAC-specific footnote.
