    I used to have the XM4 wireless buds and THOSE are what sold me on Sony headphones. So when I saw these, there was a certain expectation that was not met when I put them on. Honestly, they sound like some cheap $70 no name brand headphones. I returned them promptly. I will say, I had a a chance to try the XM5’s in store and those sound WAY better than these.

      Hi SofaKingDope,

      We regret to hear that it hasn't performed to your standards, particularly with the sound quality with the unit. We are sorry to hear that the wireless headphones had to be returned. For low sound quality, you may refer to this help guide link: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/wh1000xm4/v1/en/contents/TP0002752820.html

      - To get the sound that you prefer, please try the different sound modes found in the Sony Headphones Connect app. There is even an EQ in there—which can be customized to fine-tune your music to your liking.
      - Try playing another source on the device. For example, try another music app to see if the issue is with a particular app.
      - When you listen to music from a computer on the headset, sound quality may be poor for the first few seconds after a connection is made. This is caused by the computer transmitting music at sound quality for communications at first, and it is not a malfunction.

      The WH-1000XM4 headphones feature a built-in analogue amplifier integrated in the HD Noise Cancelling Processor QN1 realizes an unmatched signal-to-noise ratio for low distortion and exceptional sound quality for portable devices. Powerful 40-mm drivers with Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) diaphragms make the headphones perfect for handling heavy beats and can reproduce a full range of frequencies up to 40 kHz.

      We hope you will consider Sony again in a future purchase. Thank you for the feedback.

      Regards,
      Jess Sony_US
