These headphones really work great
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones really work great and it’s a bit expensive unless you get it during the holidays during Black Friday sales but it has a great feature called speak to chat which allows you to be able to listen to your music but if someone comes in and you need to speak with them we don’t have to take your headphones off really nice sound although it does feel a bit hot at times

Posted .Hi Rastaman22,
We're glad that you like the sound quality and Speak-to-Chat function of the headphones. It's unfortunate you're not having the experience with its fit. Make sure to adjust the headband for optimum fit and comfort. 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 longer you wear headphones, the more your ears may hurt. You may need to limit your headphone usage.
Sony takes all feedback seriously. Rest assured that this will help us improve our products. Thanks for sharing your review and for choosing Sony.

Solid Sony headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent product from Sony. Noise cancelling is wonderful and the controls on the earphones are easier to use than our Bose QC45's. Taking away a star due to not being as comfortable on the head as the Bose.

Does a decent job cancelling noise
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased this a couple of years ago to help deal with apartment noise while working from home. The noise cancelling does not provide absolute quiet but reduced the noise enough I could concentrate much better. It's music playing quality is decent.

Great sound quality!
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Upgraded from the older version which I’ve had for a few years and still sounds great. Noise cancelling works amazingly when traveling on a plane or the train to work. Best over-ear headphones on the market in my view.
