Posted .Hi IvanF,
It is truly wonderful to know that you are enjoying the industry-leading noise cancellation and sound quality of the WH-1000XM5.
We’ve equipped these headphones with two processors and eight microphones to specifically target and cancel out high-frequency sounds, ensuring your listening environment stays peaceful no matter where you are. Beyond the silence, the specially designed 30mm driver unit works to provide that "nice," natural sound quality you mentioned—delivering crisp highs and deep, undistorted bass for a truly premium experience.
Thank you for choosing Sony!

Dominick

Great except for build quality
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Comfort and sound are outstanding, truly amazing. I returned them because the arms slid too easily and I had to adjust them each time I put them on. Really disappointing for the price, but if you don’t mind this then definitely buy them.

Worth every penny
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are by far the best headphones I have ever bought. After asking around and trying another major competitor I settled on them. The sound quality is as you’d expect from higher end headphones from Sony, very good. I love the deeper end of the sound. I use them when I work outside because I love the noise canceling. It removes at least half the noise from the lawnmower. I was told they wouldn’t work well with my Xbox because the dialogue would be off. That is wrong. I use them every day and never notice any dialogue or other sounds being “off”. It was well worth what I paid.

Dog groomers best friend
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are seriously some of the best headphones you can get on market. Even though it says not to sweat in them its really dependent on how much you sweat. I worked at a dog salon and wore these everyday. Noise cancelation is out of this world. If you work as a groomer, these are really good to have. They withstand extremely high pitched noises in the background as well.

Posted .Hi SabrinaR, It's great to hear that you are enjoying the WH-1000XM5 headphones! They are indeed known for their exceptional noise cancellation capabilities, which can be particularly beneficial in environments with high-pitched noises, such as a dog salon. The noise-canceling technology in these headphones is designed to effectively reduce low-frequency sounds, like those from engines or air conditioning, but it can also handle a range of other noises to some extent. Thank you for choosing Sony! -Carl
