      Hi HumbertoL,
      Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the WH-1000XM6! We're happy you consider them "Good headphones" overall.

      About the sound quality, you can customize it to be exactly what you like using the Sony | Sound Connect app.
      Here are the simplest things you can do right now to make the sound better:

      -Go into the app and look for the Equalizer settings. You can play around with the sliders to change how the music sounds.

      -Inside the app, find the setting called DSEE Extreme. This feature uses our smart technology to try and make compressed music sound closer to high resolution audio. It can really add detail and a sense of space to the music.

      -In the app's system settings, make sure the "Bluetooth Connection Quality" is set to "Prioritize Sound Quality" instead of "Prioritize Stable Connection." This allows the headphones to use better streaming formats like LDAC for clearer audio (if your phone supports it).

      Give those a try!

      We appreciate your business and thank you for choosing Sony headphones!
      Best regards,

      We’re thrilled to hear that the WH-1000XM6 are the best headphones you've ever owned! It’s great to know that the new QN3 processor and expanded 12-microphone array are providing the "perfect" experience you were looking for. While we don't have a built-in fan, the redesigned headband and soft-fit leather are intended to help with long-term comfort; we appreciate the feedback regarding ear temperature during extended listening sessions. Thanks for choosing Sony.

      Hello NoelL,

      Thank you for your fantastic review! We're so pleased to hear you're enjoying the amazing sound, noise cancellation, and transparency mode on your WH-1000XM6 headphones.

      The Dual Noise Sensor technology is a key part of what makes the noise cancellation so effective. It uses two microphones on each earcup to capture ambient noise and process it for an even more immersive listening experience, allowing you to seamlessly switch between full quiet and a clear awareness of your surroundings.

      Thanks for choosing Sony, and have a wonderful day!
