Sony did it again
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The headphone sounds great. I was wearing it on my flight with noise cancelling on and I barely hear anything
I would recommend this to a friendGood 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.

Posted .Thank you for the amazing review, Nick!
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!

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.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from SonyListens
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.

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.
For the most comfortable fit during long listening sessions, we recommend ensuring the headband is properly adjusted so the earcups sit snugly around your ears without putting too much pressure on your glasses' arms. Many users find that the clamping force and overall comfort improve over time with regular use.
Thanks for choosing Sony.
