Do the XM4 offer a "transparency" mode, so that the user listen to music while also being able to hear ambient sounds? In some cases I need to be able to hear others who speak to me. Thanks. null

Yes, the Sony app has a couple of options in which you can turn on to help you hear your surroundings. Also, you can adjust the level of sound cancelling in the app.
