Superb Cans
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I knew these were great headphones already, given they consistently win over reviewers on youtube. Hearing them for my self though, i was caught off guard by how utterly silent the ANC makes your surroundings. I use these daily for teams calls and music while working. Excellent sound quality and mind blowing ANC.

A little too expensive, but pretty good quality
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’d probably give these headphones 5 stars if their programming could reduce the wind noise, headache-inducing bass response when using them in a high wind environment. Also, the connecting bar between the two ear cups can feel pretty hard and heavy if you don’t adjust them right. But hey, literally everything else is fantastic. The sound quality, outside of the wind noise thing, whether for music or podcasts is above reproach. If these were $250 they’d be a no-brainer.
