Awesome headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A great pair of headphones. The only reason I give 4 stars rather than 5 is because of the stuffiness. After a while, they do get very hot to wear, especially in comparison to the Bose 700. But the ANC and sound quality are superb.

MX3 replacements
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Better features than the MX3, sound only slightly better. Less muddy bass. Also, fantastic new Blue color!

||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the sound quality. Not as great on the bass as some headphones but way better on noise canceling. If you have a head on the smaller size these headphones may not fit. I do not have to extend at all and they are a bit loose.
