    These are the 2nd pair of Sony M5 I have purchased (1st pair was stolen) and they are the best headphones on the market. Before I bought them the 2nd time around I did hours of research trying to find others at a better price but I always came back to these headphones. Great fit, amazing battery life and so far no complaints.
