First unveiled at CES in January 2026, TDM Neo became available to order in the US on October 6, with shipping scheduled to start on October 13.

Snackgirls react
Red I want to try that twist when a game soundtrack reaches my favorite part—then share it through the speaker. A boss theme would be my first pick.
Nea I’d rather get lost in the soundtrack on my own for a while. In a shared room, I’d set the twist to pause instead of switching to speakers.
Separate drivers, with a twist you can customize
Neo has four independently tuned 40mm drivers: two face inward for headphone listening, while two face outward for speaker playback. The dedicated speaker pair has a listed output of 2 × 5W.
The app lets you choose what twisting does: switch to speaker playback, pause and resume music, or power the device off and on. Manual Mode keeps speaker mode disabled until you choose it. Before twisting Neo in a shared room, check which response you have selected.
Headphone and speaker listening also have separate EQ profiles, so you can adjust the sound for each mode.
200+ hours is the headphone rating
TDM rates battery life at 200+ hours in headphone mode and 16+ hours in speaker mode. Actual runtime varies with volume, content and use, so the headphone figure is not the one to plan around when sharing music through the speakers.
The manufacturer also says five minutes of USB-C charging can provide up to eight hours of listening. Neo weighs under 340g and has a replaceable battery module and removable memory-foam ear cushions.
The $249 offer is for US orders
The official US price is $249. Release timing and local retail prices for South Korea and Japan remain unconfirmed; the US price is not a total import cost.
Before ordering, check delivery availability for your destination and any shipping, taxes or fees. If you have a chance to try Neo, check the fit and weight on your head, then listen to speaker mode in the room where you expect to use it.
