Q: I WAS LOOKING FOR A NEW SET OF HEADPHONES, BUT I NOTICED IN THE SPECS THE HEADBAND IS NON-ADJUSTABLE? SO I CAN'T SLID THE EARPIECES UP AND DOWN FOR A PERFECT FIT?

A: It is absolutely adjustable. This is a very nice headset. One of the best noise canceling. I have had the sony wh1000 xm3 and actually liked the sound of this set better (less bass but more up front mids and highs, the bass is adjustable to get pretty loud with the app though). Plus i like the build quality of this better (much less plastic) and it is smaller form factory (less cumbersome). The one thing i did buy was a hardshell case for this headset through a popular online website (cost about 15)if you purchase this headset you will absolutely enjoy it. Good strong bluetooth connection and connects 2 devices (which the sony's did not). For a great in depth video review jims review room for the pcx 550 is great and will give you all the info you need on this.

Q: Can they be paired with a Sony Bravia smart tv(2015)

A: If the TV has Bluetooth, it should be able to work.

Q: What is the maximum range (in meters or feet) away from the device that the Bluetooth headphones will function?

A: It depends. Hooked it up to the TV and went into another room. I'd say 30ftish it starts to get fuzzy.

Q: Where is this product made in?

A: This headphones is made in Wedemark, Germany

Q: I was recently gifted PXC 550 - Sennheiser headsets. I am trying to connect it with my TV. MY TV does not have a Bluetooth? Will it work? if yes how do I pair it? Thank you

A: They will work with a Bluetooth transmitter I used several transmitters with them and they still sound great remember when hooking up your TV to the transmitter use the optical the analog will give you a little bit of white noise
