TOO MUCH BASS, NOT ENOUGH MUSIC
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like headphones that can produce bass that is in the song. I dont like headphones that add bass where its it contained in the music. These add too much bass and its difficult to equalize out. The bass overpowers the midst and treble. I gave it 3 stars because I liked the tech in them. They use LDAC for the best possible sound quality.

Great noise canceling headphones
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought these while they were on sale. I needed them so I could do school work without getting distracted by background noise. Got my husband a pair as well since he likes to watch TV with the volume very high. He has been very impressed by the sound and noise cancelling feature as well. There is a monthly subscription offered that gives the head phones surround sound. I have not tried it but the sample of sound they play is excellent. Can’t remember how much it costs, but sounded like it would be worth it if you expect to use these every day. Only down side to these is that operating volume is a little tricky. But not a deal breaker.
