Posted .Hi HumbertoL,
Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the WH-1000XM6! We're happy you consider them "Good headphones" overall.
About the sound quality, you can customize it to be exactly what you like using the Sony | Sound Connect app.
Here are the simplest things you can do right now to make the sound better:
-Go into the app and look for the Equalizer settings. You can play around with the sliders to change how the music sounds.
-Inside the app, find the setting called DSEE Extreme. This feature uses our smart technology to try and make compressed music sound closer to high resolution audio. It can really add detail and a sense of space to the music.
-In the app's system settings, make sure the "Bluetooth Connection Quality" is set to "Prioritize Sound Quality" instead of "Prioritize Stable Connection." This allows the headphones to use better streaming formats like LDAC for clearer audio (if your phone supports it).
Give those a try!
We appreciate your business and thank you for choosing Sony headphones!
Best regards,
Estefany

Headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The headphones are pretty good, the sound quality is good since these are my first pair of headphones, although connecting with the Sony app will disconnect even though you're connected and sometimes the ambient mode won't work and you have to disconnect & reconnect, but overall just don't buy these for full price, wait till they're on sale.

Posted .Hi Zack,
We are happy to hear that the sound quality is good for your first pair of high-end headphones, but we sincerely apologize for the frustrating connectivity issues you are experiencing with the Sony app and the inconsistent Ambient Sound Mode. Since the app connection is unstable and Ambient Mode requires frequent re-connection, please ensure both the headphones and the Sony Headphone Connect app are updated to the latest versions, and then try performing an initialization (factory reset) on the headphones, as this often resolves communication bugs and restores full functionality.
Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards, Eliab

Posted .Hi BenL,
We’re thrilled to hear that the WH-1000XM6 are the best headphones you've ever owned! It’s great to know that the new QN3 processor and expanded 12-microphone array are providing the "perfect" experience you were looking for. While we don't have a built-in fan, the redesigned headband and soft-fit leather are intended to help with long-term comfort; we appreciate the feedback regarding ear temperature during extended listening sessions. Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards, Eliab

Posted .Hi Bestbuyer,
We are sorry to hear that the noise cancellation did not meet your expectations. To ensure you are getting the best performance, we recommend using the Sony | Headphones Connect app to run the "Adaptive Sound Control" and "Noise Canceling Optimizer," which tailors the silence to your specific environment and fit. Please also ensure the ear pads are creating a firm seal around your ears for maximum isolation.
Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards,
Eliab
