Do not purchase. These are not built to last
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These broke while on my head. The part that connects the band to the earpiece is so flimsy it just snapped while I was taking it off. Sony has a one year warranty but was unwilling to help and bestbuy didn't want to help either. Huge waste of money these are not built to last I haven't even had them for a year. I still have the box to prove it(see photos) awful product

Subpar Experience
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.What a joke! I was super disappointed with the sound of these. I still own and emphatically use the Mx3's. The 6's are pathetic compared to the sound and build quality of the former headphones. I really wanted to like the 6's, but if you have a discriminate taste and want your music to sound a certain way, these may not be the ones for you. I had other people test the 6's to see if it was just me and they agreed the 3's and 4's are better. Even after messing with the EQ the 6th did not compare. Unless you just want something to listen to music with, I would skip this version.
