We have spent several weeks exploring the Kygo Life A11 / 800, the headphones of the Kygo Life brand, the personal brand of Kyrre Gørvell-Dahll, the Norwegian DJ and the most famous producer under Kygo's artistic name.
Far from being a product of to sell, the product type has a clear purpose, and will provide you different audio quality for all types of audiences, no matter what kind of music you listen to.
Kygo Life Products is based in Scandinavia, where it has a team of instrument makers and Bluetooth operators. We've been able to try out the best model of the product, the A11 / 800's, headphones that include texture, sound quality and technology, and this is our feeling.

A minimalist and elegant design
Kygo Life headphones showcase a simple and elegant design. In our case we tested the white model, where only X is taken, which is Kygo's secret logo.
The upper area includes more details, being a touch panel, which shows where the NFC connection point is, and what kind of actions we can perform.
We have three buttons, the center of which is to turn on, off and use pairing mode. The above works or uses to turn off the sounds, and below the direct sound effects.
On the same side we have a headphone jack port, because in addition to being wireless headphones we can also use it as cable heads. On the other hand thanks to USB C port for charging.
When it comes to materials, we have matte plastic with a very nice touch and very soft metals. They have the best articles of clothing you can wear, even if you have large ears that are similarly uncomfortable. We are also looking at aluminum on the internal infrastructure.
An important part of the product is a case that involves the maintenance of headphones. These are able to bend to fit perfectly into the case and protected while moving. The case also has a carabiner, so you can easily attach it to the back pocket handle.
How do they sound?
The important thing when they do with premium earphones is usually the quality of the sound they put in. In our tests we had no problems, finding ourselves in moderate volume, sometimes with excessive bass.
Too much volume is too strong, and in general with the mid-range and active noise cancellations you will stop recognizing the sound that has the ability to focus on the music.
One of the most displeasing to this microphone experience is when we are in wireless mode. While voice calls or Google Duo calls worked perfectly, when I used them in apps like Discord or WhatsApp I was transferring they didn't listen to me properly. The same thing happens on PC.
All the technology that these headphones put into place
The right side cover features a touch panel that allows it performs various actions by touch. In particular, the following:
- When we go from low to high we will increase volume, and when we go down we will decrease.
- Keep in mind that even though the panel is intelligent, the volume will not change in an analog way. Performing a volume action is like pressing any of the volume buttons on our phone.
- Swipe left or right to past or next music track. In the case of podcast applications, doing this hands-on will help us move forward or back for a few seconds, depending on how we have organized the app.
- One touch stops or resumes playback.
- Double-tap notifies Google Assistant and we can provide any order without removing the phone from your pocket.
As far as wireless communication is concerned, we have Bluetooth 5.0, and a distance of 15 meters depending on the product type. It fulfills what it promises, and when I leave my cellphone in the room I never stop listening to music anywhere in the house.
We are also NFC communication, the ability to pair headphones easily when you touch a mobile and mobile location.
We have the music stop sensors when we take out our headphones and re-use them when we turn it back on.
Active noise cancellation: This is a mandatory feature on premium earphones. It is a technology that uses a microphone to process an audio signal that withdraws nearby audio. Aside from being the best noise cancellation in the market, if it's good quality and you're able to cancel many annoying noises we may find around you.
But what I liked the most Standby mode, is a technology that takes advantage of the same active noise cancellation system, but takes it back. Instead of canceling the captured sound, you pass it on to headphones.
The methods used and awareness allows us to sense everything that is going on around us. Really useful technology.
And what do we get with this mode? Yes, stop being alone, being able to listen to the sound of traffic or the people we are talking to is like wearing heads. Though at first it seems like a nonsense, these weeks it's a way I ended up using it, ideally because of all those situations where I couldn't use the headphones because I had to be careful with the environment. I like it
If we press the ambient sound button again, we will use the Awareness mode, a hybrid mode that cancels 50% of the sound that goes on but continues to amplify people's voice. It's nice to have a conversation with someone without taking your helmets off (you can remove your hats too, but if you don't want to.)
Application to personalize the experience
The app left a bittersweet taste, and that is that they have left an important aspect to that of listening to so many scholars, and the lack of scale as it can be understood by the music-conscious user.
Yes, we can customize the music listening experience with the original program, but that leaves a sense of focus for those who are passionate about Kygo music.
And why are we talking about Kygo? because we get a panel where we will have a guide and four cities: Los Angeles, Bergen, New York and Ibiza, referring to the most important venues on the DJ Kygo concert.
Without depth swipe to one side or the other combining audio features which was highlighted in a concert of these cities, allowing you to listen to Kygo's songs in a more reliable way in the style of the concerts mentioned (although those corrections apply to any music or podcast).
If you're not a fan of Kygo, here's a translation of any city's best suits for each genre of music:
- Los Angeles: Lounge
- Bergen: Acoustics and piano.
- New York: R & B / Hip-Hop.
- Cost: electronic music
For anyone who is a follower of Kygo, this program will provide great value, but for some users it will be a completely inappropriate operation. We believe that without the overflow, improved equity would be an option to include.
Although the app is simple and easy to customize, we miss the traditional character rating.
Alternatively, the application allows us to control the battery percentage, bass amplifier and software changes to activate sound cancellation and the methods used and to recognize.

A quality product
249 euros is not a product that we would consider cheap, but among its price tags, the Kygo Life A11 / 800 proved to be competitive, with higher product prices being similar and a few shortcomings. If that is difficult to recommend for users with a large audiophile profile, if there is a common equity space attached to your app, then your biggest weakness will be.
In addition to the audio quality, we liked the minimalist aesthetics and finish quality, its huge battery and the introduction of all technology that the product of this category wants.
The ambient mode has made me happy and in love, which is a great way to wear headsets all day and still be completely separated, able to listen to cars on the road, to people when they talk to me or to the door when they get home, without the explanation of leaving music listening
