Newbie in Hi-Res headphone
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sony has great headphones. I purchased their headphones this past February and the music in both Dolby Atmos and 360 Reality Audio are hit and miss at best. The 360 sounds good in mostly newer music but in remakes from songs before the year 2000, I cannot hear the difference between Dolby Atmos and stereo. I will still recommend individuals who want to purchase the headphones.

The best around ANC Headphone you can buy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.With several upgrades from the previous version the The WH-1000-MX3, Sony perfected these headphones. The upgrades are the multiple pairing, the speak to chat, slightly bigger ear cups, slightly better ANC, and slightly better sound quality, The XM4’s are simply far and away the best al around.
