    I absolutely adore these headphones. I use them for attending online classes and when I’m writing my papers to tune out the kids and be able to concentrate on what is being taught. Highly recommended for cancelling out outside noise.

    I bought these as a replacement for my Sony XM2 headphones, but they fell way short of that benchmark. I bought the XM2 version probably 5 years ago, and they completely changed my relationship with music and headphones. They are on at least 2 hours a day. I thought I'd never buy anything other than sony after that, those headphones are still as good as they were when i got them (I mostly upgraded so i could give them to my daughter, and I just wanted a nice new set). The sound from them is absolutely perfect, and every note comes through. The XM4s aren't complete garbage to be fair, they're just not good enough to replace what Sony was making 5 years ago (or whenever the XM2s were put out). These felt cheap, were uncomfortable, and subtle elements from some of my favorite music just wasn't coming through. I returned them after a week. I genuinely loved my XM2 headphones, and was sad to have to find a different solution outside of Sony.

    Absolutely top-tier headphones, the software for it is amazing but you don't even need it to get great sound. They perform just as well as the MX-5s for the most part, but appear more reliable from what I've heard.
