    The audio quality is great and the noise cancellation is very nice. I like how you can connect it to audio devices at one time. So now I have it connected to my TV and my phone and it's super convenient. There are a lot of Sony oriented features with the app, haven't got to use very much of them but they seem convenient.

      Hi AndyJ,

      Thank you for your feedback! We're thrilled to hear that the sound quality and noise isolation are meeting your expectations.

      Regarding the fit, the initial clamping force is designed to ensure a consistent acoustic seal for the best noise-canceling performance. You'll find that with regular use, the headband will naturally adjust and relax to the width of your head for a more personalized, comfortable fit.

      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!
