Sony MX6
|Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these after having the Sony Mx4s. I will say there are a lot more notes and the additional mics were very nice. Personally I feel like the noise cancellation was still the same if not a little better but the thing that sets these apart is the immersive sound. There were three different modes you could choose from and I really enjoyed how it affected the music on top of that. The new design with a wider headband and being able to fold was very nice. I also love how they changed the case design to be magnetic very useful. The touch controls also seemed more responsive than previous designs but overall they were really good headphones for the price though I do think that the Mx 4s are still more than enough, but if you are really wanting the top of the top headphones, I think these are good

Great headphones for travel + home use
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very comfortable, great sound quality, and the noise canceling is almost too good. My only complaint is that you can only connect to 2 devices at a time and there is a noticable delay in audio for competitive games since it uses bluetooth. If you want to play anything competitive just use the included audio jack cable.

Good, while XM5 is still not bad
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I upgraded to XM6 from XM5. The new hinge system, potentially addressing the hinge issues seen with the XM5. I like the folding design and a smaller carrying case. The improvement on noise-canceling is notice-able. Other than that, not so much difference on sound quality. The touch control pad looks more responsive. Did not get a chance to test Microphone yet. Overall, if you like better noise cancellation and the folding design, go for it. Otherwise, XM5 is still good.

Greatest Of All Time
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This item is Incredible! Hands down the best. I have gone through many pairs of headphone and none of them compare to THE XM6. You usually have basics qualities on headphones like sound, comfort, portability. However the XM6’s “basic” qualities are great qualities. They are by far the most comfortable and high definition sounding headphones. These are generationally superior to everything.

Nice uprade
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Upgraded these from my XM4's. The sound quality is better even with my amateur ears. What really sold me was the better eq settings and background setting. I also like the blue color.

Best Headphones I've Ever Had!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best headphones I've ever had and in my opinion worth the money. Comfortable for an entire 9 hour flight to Europe and silenced the crying baby onboard. Made my music and games better with a more robust and complete sound. The touch features are an added bonus. If I had one negative it would be that folding them back up into the carrying case can sometimes be a bit challenging if you're in a hurry.

What an improvement
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are a great upgrade from the XM4, which were already amazing. The noise cancelling is noticeably better, and the sound stage is also noticeably improved. I love bass and these headphones deliver. I skipped the XM5 because they didn't fold, and I'm glad these ones fold. The new carrying case is great too. Why didn't they do that sooner? Yes they're pricey, but if you like nice things and can afford to buy them, these are a great purchase.

Great Earphones. Earphones blew away.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent product. Cancels most sounds if you chose. Very comfortable. I used when riding my CanAm Spyder motorcycle with other bikers with loud pipes. Options are to use bluetooth or plug in earphones. Expensive but worth it - $499.00. I lost mine when a big gust of wind hit me. The earphones blew away and I could not find it anywhere. So I can not provide a picture. Maybe someone will find it in a hundred years.
