      Hi User483020,

      It brings us great satisfaction to hear that the WH-1000XM5 is providing the comfort and stability you need for daily wear. We designed these with a lightweight, "soft fit" leather to ensure they stay secure without feeling tight.

      Regarding the volume, we appreciate your feedback. Our engineers prioritize high-fidelity audio and ear health, ensuring that even at safer volumes, our Industry-Leading Noise Cancellation allows you to hear every detail of your music by blocking out the world around you. This allows for a crisp, immersive experience without the need to "crank up" the sound to compete with background noise.

      We really appreciate you being part of the Sony family.

      Regards,
      Dominick Sony_US

      Thank you for sharing your feedback, JimmyD.

      We are pleased to hear that you are finding value in the WH-1000XM5 headphones' excellent Noise Cancellation and the functionality of the associated app. We put a lot of focus on creating a world-class listening environment, so it is great to know those features are working well for you.

      We are sorry, however, to hear that the sound quality is not completely meeting your expectations. We're committed to providing a premium audio experience, and we would like to ensure you are getting the best performance possible.

      Have you tried using the Equalizer feature within the Sony Headphones Connect app? Adjusting the EQ settings can often significantly tailor the sound profile to your specific preferences, offering clearer highs, deeper bass, or a more balanced mix.

      We value this feedback and hope a small adjustment helps you unlock the full audio potential of your WH-1000XM5 headphones.

      Thanks for choosing Sony!

      Hi Jams,

      Amazing! We're thrilled that you are enjoying the sound quality, noise canceling function, comfort, design, and user-friendly functions of the headphones. The WH-1000XM5 headphones have 2 processors that control 8 microphones for unprecedented noise cancellation and exceptional call quality. With a newly developed 30mm driver, DSEE – Extreme and Hi-Res audio support they provide awe-inspiring audio quality. Our Voice Pickup Technology uses 4 microphones that are calibrated to only pick up your voice, resulting in crystal clear calls. The automatic Speak to Chat feature will stop your music once you start talking and let in the ambient sound. With up to 30 hours of battery life and a quick charge feature. The new lightweight WH-1000XM5 headphones provide all day comfort in an elegant design. Thank you for choosing Sony!

    To be quite honest these have just been rolling around the internet as probably the best set of headphones the average person can feasibly buy recently. I had been using beats solo pro 3's for about 4 years when I replaced them for these. I can't recommend these enough.
