Great Purchase
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very comfortable, great bass. Was worried at first because the noise cancellation made me feel like I needed to pop my ears but that went away after about 4 hours of use. No problems now. Ordered online and was behind counter for me the next morning. 10/10

10/10 Exquisite Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very comfortable, stylish, and audio quality is fantastic. The microphone isn't as great - when on a call you can hear the other line perfect but when you speak the caller has difficultly hearing you. Fabric around headband is delicate so take care not to drop or scratch. Overall excellent headphones and super comfortable!

Great wireless headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I owned the WH-1000XM3's and loved them. Great sound, flawless pairing on two devices, and comfortable to wear for extended periods of time. My only complaint was an intermittent, faint static sound that only was noticable between songs. The XM4's sound even better with no static sound. You won't be diappointed.

Yeah...Oh yeah...
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First pair of cans since 1972. Those were great wired headphones from Koss. Well, these are very different to say the least. And they are excellent. I'm no audiophile, no question. But love my jams regardless. Light, comfortable, easy to use. Sound is rich, full and clean. The Active Noise Cancellation comes in handy when daughters, granddaughters and dogs come over. I'm keeping them.

Good listening
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I absolutely love the sound on these. My only issue is the slide when I work out but to be honest I have that figured out. The bass boost feature on these gives just the right amount. Sound is crisp and clean. Better than my AirPods.

Awesome, but too big
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound on these as well as comfort is 10/10, so great. However, I tend to have a big head, seriously, and these are still too loose even on the tightest setting. So I cannot wear them out and about to to do much movement which hugely takes away from why I bought them.
