Overall excellent
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sony headphones always have excellent sound quality, plus ANC. To be fair I miss the design of the XM4s more but this is completely my own bias and may not be applicable to all people.
