XM4 is #1 in my book
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've owned every iteration of these. The sounds quality is second to none, the noise canceling excellent, the fit amazing on my giant head (xm3 and xm4 are good for big heads but equally comfortable on my petite wife's noggin), the LDAP, 3D audio, touch controls, adjustable noise canceling to add wind canceling or include voices, etc is all top notch. I highly recommend these.

Sony’s best ANC to date
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have tried the Bose 700. I like the sound quality of the Sony better. The Bose is slightly more comfortable on my head but I do not like the midrange sound quality of the Bose. You have to try and listen to both for a direct comparison. The Sony app is very well made. The Sony’s are best on flights to get rid of the engine and people yakking loudly near you to listen to your high quality music.

To Many Stars
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These do, what they do, better than most headphones on the market. The noise canceling is great. The isolation these provide is exceptional yet, still give you a sense of spaciousness. They are extremely comfortable, and you can wear these all day, no issues. People like to say that the plastic here is High Quality, but they are still plastic. $300 headphones. No matter how tough they may be, should not feel like they will break into a bunch of pieces when you drop them. Surely they are not, but I have $100 bluetooth speakers that feel higher quality than these. Just for reference, I own a Sony TV, and Sony A series camera, so I am accustomed to the quality of the their products. I even had an original Walkman, back in the day but, I digress. That being said, these do not sound great. Because the noise isolation is so good, I could never get that feeling of being underwater, out of my sound field. The highs are not as clean as I would like then. The mids are too full without enough clarity. The bass can never be realized even with equalizer tweaks, and sounds overly tight. These are not neutral, nor are the punchy so you are left in a world that you just get used to. I wanted to like these, as the reviews are Out of This World. Thousands of sparking reviews. Guess my hearing is just a bit off, and I do not have have $1200 to buy all the different like priced headphones, so I guess I am stuck with these. If you have the opportunity to listen to these in store, try to. If not, make sure you get these back before the return period. They will not start magically sounding better, just because of other people's reviews. If features are more important than sound, these are the headphones for you.
