Great headphones

Great but not greater
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound quality, noise canceling, and connectiveness. I was dissapointed that the 360 Spacial Sound is only available when using specific apps (read addional subscription fees). I don't know if they are worth the money over other Sony or Apple products
