Great headphones, upgrade cautiously.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The headphones are amazing. New ANC gets rid of its own white noise. Soundstage is good, but I miss Clear Bass. Remember if you're doing anything demanding with them (exercise or dirty work) get the black color.

Posted .Hi SupremePatron,
It's fantastic to hear you're loving the Sony WH-1000XM6 headphones, especially the improved ANC that eliminates its own white noise, a significant upgrade! While the soundstage is good, it's understandable to miss the "Clear Bass" option from previous models, though the new 10-band EQ in the Sony Headphones Connect app offers ample flexibility to fine-tune the bass to your preference. Your practical advice about opting for the black color for demanding activities like exercise or dirty work is also wise, as the darker finish is generally more forgiving of smudges, sweat, and general wear than the silver.
Thanks for choosing Sony.

Good upgrade from xm3
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing noise canceling, amazing sosund quality. It was a good upgrade from my aging sony xm3. I will say it took a little to get used to the headband over my xm3. Can use LDAC and equalizer at same time.

We are thrilled to hear that the WH-1000XM6 has been a worthy upgrade from your XM3s! It’s great to know that you’re enjoying the step up in noise canceling and sound quality.
We also appreciate your feedback regarding the headband design. We know that comfort is subjective, especially when moving from a long-time favorite like the XM3, and we're glad to hear you're settling into the new fit. It’s also fantastic that you’re taking full advantage of the ability to use LDAC and your custom Equalizer settings at the same time for that high-resolution, personalized audio experience!

Posted .Hi EliS,
Thank you for your review! We're thrilled to hear you're enjoying the top-of-the-line sound quality and noise cancellation of the WH-1000XM6 headphones. We also appreciate your feedback on comfort, especially for glasses wearers.

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

Great headset. Not worth the price.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great headset with a caveat. The noise cancelling is 100% set to the environment. Wearing for an extended period on a plane, for example, you will notice fluctuations in the noise cancelling frequency and it is quite unpleasant. Nothing you can do in the settings even when you specifically disable that toggle. Seems I’m in the minority here, though. Battery life is EXCELLENT. Its also nice to be able to connect to 2 devices at once. But these are not nearly worth the price.

Posted .Hi str8b8ed,
We're glad to hear you're enjoying the excellent battery life and multipoint connection on your WH-1000XM6 headphones. We apologize for the frustration with the noise-canceling fluctuations on the plane. This behavior is most often caused by the Adaptive Sound Control feature, which we recommend disabling in the Sony | Headphones Connect app to maintain a consistent noise-canceling level. If the issue persists, please ensure you have the latest firmware installed.
Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards,
Eliab

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.
