    I temporarily upgraded to these from my Sony XM3's. I say temporarily because I sold them and went back to my XM3's after about 3 months of use. The XM5's were far less comfortable than the XM3's and really didn't offer much if any discernable improvement in sound quality. Other than the design, the other upgrades were not substantial enough to make them worth another $380 (depending on when you buy them). If my XM3's go out, I will most likely go with the XM4's until Sony releases the next iteration.
