Hi Chris,

Thanks for sharing your feedback. We're sorry to hear you're experiencing distortion with your new WH1000XM6 headphones. That's definitely not the listening experience we want you to have—especially since you've noted that they sound great with a wired connection.

Since you're hearing distortion specifically over Bluetooth, here are a few things to check that might help: In the Sony | Sound Connect app, go to Settings and look for a setting called Bluetooth Connection Quality. If it's set to "Prioritize Sound Quality (LDAC)," try switching it to Prioritize Stable Connection. You can reset the Headphones and Disable DSEE Extreme as well!

If the issue persists, feel free to reach out to our Sony Support team at https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US&category=headphones

We hope this helps get your issue resolved.

Thanks for choosing Sony!

Sincerely,
Jenn | Sony North America.

Hi KevinR,

We are so happy to hear you're enjoying the upgrade! It’s great to know that moving from the XM4 directly to the WH-1000XM6 has been such a positive experience for you. We specifically brought back the foldable design and integrated the new QN3 processor to ensure these provide the best noise canceling and portability possible.

Thanks for choosing Sony. 

Best regards,
Eliab

Hi KelliC,

We are delighted the WH-1000XM6 headphones are loved by your son and that the powerful noise-canceling helps him focus by reducing external stimulation, making a positive difference in his daily life.

Thanks for choosing Sony.

Best regards, Eliab

Hi LisaS,

We’re sorry to hear the audio sounds muffled! To improve clarity, we recommend using the Sony | Sound Connect app to set your Bluetooth Connection Quality to "Prioritize Sound Quality" and enabling DSEE Extreme to restore high-end detail. You can also use the Equalizer presets, like "Bright," to sharpen the vocals and reduce any heaviness in the bass.

Thanks for choosing Sony.

Best regards,

Eliab

Thank you for sharing your feedback on the WH-1000XM6, GSZona. We are pleased to hear that you find the sound quality great and the Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) to be good.

Your feedback on this matter is incredibly valuable and will be shared with our design and engineering teams for future product development.

Thank you again for choosing Sony and for taking the time to provide us with this important insight.
