    I bought these for noise canceling to block excessive dbs from amplified music near by. They work great! Cut about 80% and a good % of the base.

    I have never owned great headphones, until now! The sound is amazing, but the noise canceling is what makes this headphones GREAT! I highly recommend this, especially for students. When I study, I put this on and I can't hear a thing, not even when the air conditioner kicks on.

    Only get's 4 stars cause I'm not sure the adaptive Noise Cancelling automatically "adapts" to the current noise levels. Sometimes I have to reset the noise cancelling by turning off and on, then it seems to block out more noise. However, it is better than Bose noise cancelling blocking out more of the upper midrange.

      Hi Bobby,

      We're glad that you like the sound quality and battery life of the headphones. It's unfortunate that you're experiencing delay or lag when watching movies. Make sure to install the latest software version of the headphones (via the Sony Headphones Connect app) for optimum performance.

      The audio playback on this unit may be delayed from that on the transmitting device, due to the characteristics of Bluetooth wireless technology. As a result, the sound may not be in sync with the image when viewing movies or playing games. Thanks for sharing your feedback and for choosing Sony.
