    I have had them for a little over a year when they started breaking on one of the hinges. Theyre still workable with a little bit of glue but I would only recommend that if you know what youre doing. Overall, Sony can do better with better materials.

    My second pair. Sound quality is better than my Bose 45. Has deep bass and clear vocals. Noise cancelling works great, I fly a lot and when these are on, I don't hear the engine noise and fall asleep quickly. Highly recommended
