    This was for my son. The quality of sound on this wasn't as good as the JBL Tune 660NC that he eventually got and the pads were a bit on the small side making it less comfortable. He's a drummer and wanted comfortable over-the-ear style, BT headphones. Certainly less expensive than the JBL Tune 660NC, but didn't work for his needs.

      Hi PapaCraft,
      Thank you for your time writing this review. We're sorry to hear that our WHCH520 headphones did not meet your son's needs and expectations. Sony values the opinions of customers and is always striving to provide the best experience possible. You may find this link helpful with steps to try if the sound quality is low: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/2958/v1/en/contents/TP1000776831.html

      If you feel discomforts while wearing the headset, try extending the slider and adjust the orientation of the left and right units so that each earpad fits snugly over each part of your ear. If you put on the headset without adjusting the slider, the headset may not be positioned properly on your head, resulting in discomfort. For reference: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/2958/v1/en/contents/TP1000781372.html

      Our WHCH520 headphones allow you to enjoy high-quality sound all day long with up to 50 hours of battery life, stable connectivity, and enhanced call performance. They will make your music more natural with our Digital Sound Enhancement Engine (DSEE) which restores the harmonics and liveliness lost during typical music compression, for a more authentic performance. These are also 360 Reality Audio-compatible so you can fully immerse yourself in sound all around you. We've taken note of your feedback and thanks again for purchasing Sony. - Kris Sony_US

    I bought these for my daughter and she is very happy with them. The only issue we had is that we couldn't connect them to an old MPOW wireless receiver that we tried to set up for her to use with an analog Korg drum machine. She uses them for her phone and they work great.

    Ok headphones. The $20.00 Sony sound a little better in my opinion if you want Bluetooth connectivity without spending a lot then yes; but if you can save your money and spend to get the 1 or 2 models higher. To me the sound was coming low on this model.
