Posted .Hello kkerr379,
Thank you for purchasing our Sony - WH1000XM4 Wireless Noise-Cancelling Over-the-Ear Headphones and for sharing your honest review. While we are happy that you appreciate the product, we are sorry to hear that it caused you some discomfort or your ears get tired after a long period of usage. You may be experiencing a symptom called listener fatigue. That is where your eardrums work hard to manage the volume that flows through your ear canal. The louder the volume, the bigger the strain on your eardrums, which then causes the feeling of fatigue. Try lowering the volume or take a break from wearing them for a while. The WH-1000XM4 is a new design, with intelligent and intuitive Ambient Sound Control features that include improvements to Multipoint connection and our industry-leading Noise Cancelation, exceptional sound quality, and Smart Listening that adjusts to your behavior and location. If you haven't already, please check our Sony Headphones Connect app which will let you fine-tune your music to your liking! Thank you for choosing Sony! - Marco

Good but..
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These things are all the rage from Youtubers. I bought these and found them to be subpar so I returned them. My Airpods Max sound better and have more functionality if budget isn't an issue.
