Audiophile's delight...Superb!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm an old school audiophile and did research before buying. In addition to high quality audio I wanted maximum noise cancellation. Bose is a gold standard in audio and their noise cancelling technology is highly rated so I tested their headphone first. The Sony seems to be on par with the Bose for less money. I can find no fault with these. They are comfortable, great build quality, impressive sound, and excellent noise cancellation. I wish they had volume control on the headset, but other than that, I would highly recommend.

BEST FOR IT”S VALUE
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I would definitely recommend these headphones espicially for the gym. They are sweat resistance and easy to clean. Once a month cleaning the leather part of the headphones will do it for the headphone. Wiping them down after every session of the gym, will get rid of the ordo and stains. AWESOME SOUND QUALITY AND GREAT NOISE CANCELLING. It does havea sensor on the left of the headphone to sense detect when the headphone are off of the head.

Really nice headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I cannot complain. The noise canceling is awesome. The ease of use for adjusting sound changing track and so on is perfect. I purchased these over another major brand and I find them to be equal but they cost me less. I also owned the earbuds in the same model from the same company, and they are absolutely phenomenal as well.

XM4s - great value & continue to out perform XM5s
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have used Beats (over the ear) headphones for many years. After listening to my son’s XM4’s, I knew there was no going back. After testing the XM6’s, while there are small upgrades, the XM4’s are proven and loved by many, including our family!
