    Sounds Great but Can Hurt

    They're great sounding with amazing noise cancelling, but the earcup/headphone design may have the inside of the cup too shallow for people with larger ears and cause some pain if not adjusted properly or wearing for an extended period of time.

      Hi KyleK,

      We're glad that you like the sound quality and noise canceling function of the headphones. Your feedback about the fit and comfort is greatly appreciated. For optimum performance, make sure to adjust the headband of the headphones.

      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.

    Sorry I really can’t give you an honest review. My fault. I’m taking a trip soon and decided I had vastly overbought for my flying portion of the trip and I just couldn’t justify the expense. They are highly rated and the salesperson was great. Never even used but tried display in store.
