Wonderful and fast noise cancelling headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I traded in my Bose QC xx noise cancelling headphones at Best Buy for these new Sony headphones. I had a trip upcoming and I was hoping for new and faster microprocessor technology. My Bose never disappointed, but these Sony headphones are magical. So very quiet I'm N/C mode. Almost made my air travel bearable.
