Posted .Hi Tristan,
It brings us great satisfaction to hear that the noise cancellation of your WH-1000XM6 is making your yard work so much more enjoyable by blocking out the engine noise. Since you use them while being active outdoors, we recommend regularly wiping down the ear pads with a soft, dry cloth to keep the materials in top condition after a long day of mowing.
Thank you for choosing Sony to be your companion even during the toughest tasks!
Regards,
Dominick

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best headphones i have ever had. sound is amazing, noise canceling is great. the sony app os intuitive, easy to use, and great for cutomizing the headphone opperation. i will say, hand oils and hair oils show up pretty obviously on the darker colors. so maybe go with the lighter one if that matters to you. I still prefer the look of the blue though.

Great experience
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The overall experience was great and a huge upgrade from the xm4s, better noise cancellation and touch controls however if your not looking to spend the price the xm4s have a greater value for the price. Worth it, but not to the point where its the only option !

Great headphones but not great cups
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound. Great base. Great NC. The only downside is the ear cups are to thin/shallow so it's not comfortable to wear for a long time. I bought a thicker replacement cups and now i can wear them all day.

Great build quality and sound, not a bad first buy
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was my first major purchase of a high end headphones this should be a 4 1/2 starts, the build quality is amazing I do not regret my purchase. The only thing i have to say is that the noise cancelling is very noticeable when entering in to different environments with different active noises; where you will suddenly hear the back ground noise at a higher volume than expected. Also make sure you try on the headset before you buy if you have large or protruding ears to make sure its conformable for you, I am noticing that this may have been an issue for me after a hour or two of wear.

Best headphones yet

Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Well I'll tell you very simply that Bose better watch out because these are really good headphones and I've tried just about everything. The sound is incredible overall and it blocks out the sound and annoys the area making it a very peaceful and calm environment.

Fixed main issues with xm5s
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The XM6 has far better hinges, the main breaking point for the XM5s. A recessed power button, differentiates it from the ambient button, making it far less confusing. The biggest gripe i had with the XM5s is their battery life, which was all over the place, but these have solved it with being able to charge while being connected wirelessly! Fantastic
