    They are very comfortable, sound really good, and have great noise cancellation. That + the fact you can customize so many different options and features makes these headphone a 10/10 overall.

    It’s too of the line when it comes to noise canceling comparable to the Bose headsets with different the pads are more comfortable on the Sony. Quality of sound is great but nothing exceptional as it is comparable to Apple or Bose headsets . It has different modes like Cinema etc that add more depth to it.

    First, the sound quality was excellent. I have never cared for over-emphasized bass of many popular headphones. These stay clear and distinctive, even in a crowded soundscape. The noise cancelation is excellent, even allowing me to lower the volume and listen at a quieter volume without outside noise at the gym drowning out the music. I ended up returning these for a couple of reasons. The smart features on these headphones are not as good as I am used to. My pixel buds have spoiled me for voice detection and auto-pausing, and sensing when I remove the earbuds. The Sonys would detect sound from outside as me speaking and pause randomly. Finally, I have an existing pair of noise canceling headphones which are not as good, but not better enough to justify a $500 purchase. If you have nothing else recent, this is a great place to start. I don't think you will be disappointed.

    These X6 headphones sound amazing out of the box. I havent had time yet to listen to uncompressed music just yet. But I am sure it will sound amazing since the drivers in these headphones are extremely accurate. If you enjoy music buy these. Life is to short to listen to music you love be muddy and distorted. The noise cancellation in these Sony's are next level too.
