Posted .Hi Shay,
We’re glad to hear you’re finding the WH-1000XM6 to be a stable and secure fit! To address the volume levels, we recommend checking the "Sound" tab in the Sony | Sound Connect app to ensure the "Volume Liaison" or safety limiters aren't capping your output, and you can also use the equalizer to boost specific frequencies to your liking. Regarding the "gaps" in the ear cups and sweat exposure, please note that these headphones are not officially IP-rated for water or sweat resistance; we recommend wiping them down after use and ensuring a snug headband adjustment to maintain the best acoustic seal for the noise canceling to function optimally.
Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards, Eliab

XM3 to XM6
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Well it’s a Sony XM and I just upgraded from xm 3 to xm 6. My old one served me faithfully for years and it was no brainer to get this one. So far it’s been worth the upgrade. With BestBuy I managed to trade my old one in for some credit and I like that even after so many years of use I got credit for it.

Posted .Hi NoelC,
We could not be more pleased to hear your fantastic five-star feedback!
We appreciate you calling the WH-1000XM6 the best noise-cancelling headphones available. Our engineers worked tirelessly to deliver industry-leading Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), and it is wonderful to know that this feature truly stands out for you.
Thank you for choosing Sony!

Amazing if your ears are small enough.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The ANC is second to none. There is zero doubt about that. However, if you have slightly larger ears, these may be uncomfortable for you. There are multiple mic's inside the earcup that my ears pressed against making the headphones extremely uncomfortable to wear after only a few minutes. I hate to admit it but I returned them and went with the Bose QC Ultra 2 only because of the larger ear opening. The Bose ANC is not as good as the Sony, but I can ACTUALLY WEAR THEM.

Posted .Hi JJ85,
We appreciate you taking the time to share such detailed and honest feedback, even though the WH-1000XM6 headphones were not the right fit for you personally. We are delighted you found the Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) to be second to none, as we constantly strive for industry-leading performance in that area. However, we sincerely regret that the earcup size caused discomfort due to pressure on the internal microphones. We take comfort issues seriously and will pass this specific note regarding larger ears and internal mic placement directly to our design and engineering teams for future product development.
Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards, Eliab

Posted .Thank you for the fantastic review, Unsure!
We're thrilled that the WH-1000XM6 is hitting that "top-tier" mark for you and outperforming the competition in noise reduction. It’s great to hear they were a worthy upgrade after six years!
Regarding the earpads, they do tend to soften up and conform to your fit after a week or two of regular use. We appreciate the feedback on the fit as well, as we're always looking to balance world-class ANC with long-term comfort.
Thanks for choosing Sony for your upgrade!

The word for me is disappointed.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was excited when I saw that the M6 available. From reading and watching reviews everybody was saying oh yeah it's wonderful. 1. Well, the earcup did not fit my ears couldn't get it comfortable fit nor could I get the upper part quit to fit. Oh, it would go on my head and my ears, but I had to keep wiggling them, couldn't get comfortable. Oh and they also became warm/Hot. 2. The app was not intuitive. I never could get them adjusted for sound the way I like to hear it. Very disappointed. 3. I returned them!
