Hi TrashMetalPanda,

We feel privileged to know you were impressed with the great Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) performance of the WH-1000XM6 headphones!

We hear your feedback regarding the sound profile and the bulkiness when worn around the neck. We want to assure you that you can easily customize the sound to your preference using the Sony Headphones Connect app. The app features a robust Equalizer (EQ) that allows you to boost bass, enhance treble, or select from various presets to create a listening profile that suits your taste.

We also appreciate your note on the design for future consideration. Thank you for choosing Sony!

Thank you for your feedback, EdwardLee.

We are glad to hear you enjoyed the noise cancellation and seamless switching, but we are truly sorry to hear the WH-1000XM6 caused you discomfort. We aim for a perfect balance of performance and comfort, and we regret that the fit didn't work out for you as well as your previous XM2s did.

Your feedback regarding the headband pressure is very valuable to our design team. We appreciate your long-term loyalty to Sony and hope we can find a better fit for you in the future.

Best regards, Gus, Sony Social Media Team

Hello Ryan,

Thank you for considering Sony products.

We are sincerely sorry for the inconvenience and the disappointment you’ve experienced with your WH-1000XM6 headphones. It is clear that the sound, build feel, and ease of use did not align with your expectations, and we apologize for the frustration this has caused. This is certainly not up to the quality standards we strive for, and we take your concerns very seriously.

We want to assure you that we will forward your feedback regarding the material finish and the folding design to our dedicated Sony team for their thorough review as we continue to work diligently to enhance our products.

In the meantime, we would like to provide some steps that may help improve your experience:

1. Optimizing Sound Quality: If the default sound isn't what you expected, we recommend using the Sony Sound Connect app. We suggest toggling through different Equalizer presets like "Bright" or "Excited," or creating a custom profile to better suit your ears. You can see a walkthrough of these features here: https://youtu.be/7vPJ97Gy6l8?si=yX3Akj88Rbp8sF3w

2. Improving Comfort and Fit: To reduce the pressure on your head during long sessions, we suggest adjusting the headband sliders so they are extended equally on both sides. This ensures the earcups sit flush against your ears and prevents the headband from pulling too tightly against the crown of your head.

3. Maintaining the Finish: Because of the premium matte finish, natural oils can transfer easily. We recommend using a soft, dry microfiber cloth to wipe down the earcups after use to keep them looking new and free of fingerprints.

We’re committed to helping you resolve this issue. If the problem persists, please reach out to our dedicated support team for further assistance and advanced troubleshooting.

Hi Raymond,

We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. You are exactly right—while our industry-leading noise-canceling technology is designed to drastically reduce ambient sounds like airplane engines or office chatter, sudden, high-pitched, or extremely loud noises can still be difficult to eliminate completely. We are glad to hear they are working well for your general noise-canceling needs!

Thanks for choosing Sony.
