Title: What in the Hell, These are Sheer Perfection…!! SONY IS KING….! Really…!!
Review: So apologies for my Ramblings. But had to Share…As, coming from the Years of Headphone Bounce Around, from Bang & Olufsen, Sony XM3-4-5, then Bose last 1-2- 3 gen, and then…I had a Black Friday SCORE….!! Amazon Credit Card Bonus Points>Amazon Gift Card>BINGO XM6, as these ARE PRICEY…!! BUT…I must say, all around, in my Long Treacherous Ride with all the early from 90’s-to Current…THESE are Sum AWESOME EARCUPS..! I mean, I have Big Ole Ears, that’s fixed now, no more pinching, and the Design is quite adjustable and fit is SO very comfortable…I must Say. . . !SO, the Most Important, I am not exaggerating in saying is Beyond Any Headphones ever owned, don’t know WHAT Sony has Done, BUT, as it sounds as if the Music is Remastered, and Lossless when it’s just a Regular Spotify/Apple Music Playlist Stream. I SWEAR, it’s Shocking….It is so Crisp, Dynamic and Full Spectrum, I must say I am Gobsmacked by this aspect of their New Design. I have the Preset to EQ “Clear”, is my space. But the Heavy, and Light, whatever works very well without Tweaking. Headbangers, you gotta mode for YOU as well. Just that I have come from Bang & Olufsen, Bose, Sony, round and round for two decades…THESE ARE the One’s..!!Lets be Blunt….I am a Music Addict, and cannot survive with some tunes tinkling, I mean Echo/Alexas in every room, my Freak I Guess…? But Acid Test for these Coming Tonight, heading Down to OZ BABBY…for the Holidays…As that’s 15+ hours, it will the Clincher, I am sure it will be PERFECTION with tunes with the Glass Of ahem….then , a movie then Tuneage the last 10 hours….!Anyway, thanks for tolerating my PSYCHO….Go for the Black Friday Deals, these are Way Worth It..!!Happy Holidays…!!

Title: Sony 1000XM6 vs Bose QuietComfort Ultra Gen2
Review: I bought the Sony 1000XM6 from Amazon, and Bose QCU Gen 2 from Costco for $429 which also had a $75 rebate. Compared both for a week, I took the Bose on one trip and took the Sony to Hawaii. IMO the Sony fit better and even on a 5.5 hour flight it was pretty comfortable. The noise cancellation worked very well on both headphones, but the Bose was annoying where the ANC would pause whenever I turned my head in a certain way thinking there was ambient sounds to hear. The Sony ANC was flawless and worked no matter which way I moved my head. The movie/music only paused when I took the headphones off to order a drink which worked as it should. Overall both Bose and Sony sounded great, but I thought the Bose sounded a little more crisp when both EQ’s were on flat. But whether you like highs or bass both delivered and both had EQ adjustments so I think the sound is more to a personal taste that can be adjusted per each EQ app. However, I will say the Bose was a little easier connecting to my iPad Pro 13 inch or iPhone 16 Pro on the first try, whereas the Sony took a little more effort on first connection. But once connected to both devices, it was seamless to switch between them.The two reasons I decided to keep the Sony: 1) Overall comfort/fit and ANC that did not pause when I moved my head in a certain way; 2) The Sony had a better functioning case with a magnetic closure, and well thought out pouch for the accessory cords/adapters. Although the Bose’s case was a little more compact, it had a side pouch for the wires/adapters that sometimes got in the way when closing and the cords could easily fall out if you’re not careful in the dark, and the case was a little klugy trying to zip the case closed especially if the headphones were not properly in their fitted cavity. The Sony was much easier to put the headphones in the case and the magnetic latch was a breeze to open/close. I’d say the Sony designers put a little more thought into the case design whereas Bose failed to improve what it had from their Gen 1 headphones. Big opportunity miss there.

Title: These Rock
Review: I have the XM5 and previously had the XM4. So I saw no risk in buying the XM6. Sound is wonderful. I’m using Amazon Music Unlimited in ultra mode with a replacement BT driver on Win 11. I appreciate the feeling of space and the range from the softest to loudest sounds as well as the lowest and highest freqs. I’m not an audiophile by any means but these Sony’s are everything to me in listening to good music.They (XM6, 5 and 4) connect to my phone and PC via BT without any issues. They fit comfortably, easy access to controls and fold up nicely for travel (6 and 4). As mentioned, the audio is as clear and crisp as my ears can deal with.Best feature for me, a person that likes to study or read while my wife is watching TV, is the Noise Cancellation. With NC off, the outside fades significantly. With NC on and some light music, the outside world disappears. Now if I could just find a way to read without the TV flashing in my face. The NC can easily be turned on or off and there’s also a mode to listen for ambient noise were, I think, speech is enhanced. Pretty handy. This is done with a subtle button near the on/off/power check button. There are also gesture controls. These are all controlled by Sony’s software on your phone. I don’t think there’s any way to change the config from the computer. Not a big deal.I can’t yet talk about durability. They feel good but I treat them with care to avoid any issues.

Title: Amazing but not perfect
Review: Really nice headphones, sound quality is really good bass included, very comfortable to wear. ANC is absolutely insane for wireless headphones but a hinge squeaks after a month of use and price does not justify for the headphones. Touch controls are extremely annoying and finicky (you will try and raise the volume and it sometimes just skips your media). Would recommend XM4s unless the price is lowered more, as I don’t think these are entirely $450 worth but they are incredibly nice exact quality that was promise and connectivity is very nice! On the silver color headphones, the inside foam layer gets stained from the speakers but it’s only visible with the headphones off. All things considered, very easy to use, durable, and the color is nice.

Review: Gran calidad de audio, cancelación de ruido y comodidad, vengo de usar años el modelo anterior, y este es una gran opción para todos aquellos que disfrutan de la música, podcast, películas, videojuegos. Lo que no me encanta es que el botón de encendido suena de y se siente de “mala calidad” el mecanismo físico del click suena muy “barato”, lo cual desentona con el resto del acabado premium

Review: App on phone was a bit of a pain to set up but works OK once they are connected. The ear pads are nice and comfortable. I personally don’t think the sound quality reflects the price but that’s just my own opinion.
