“Sound quality (music) worse than previous models - Very good Noise-Canceling: This is my third noise-canceling headphones from the Sony WH-1000 Series. I owned the XM2 and XM4 before.I had great expectations for the 6th Generation. I am a sound engineer by profession and did a real-time subjective comparison between the XM4 and XM6 with the same music contents. To my surprise, I quickly felt that the sound was not ok with the XM6.All evaluations performed with default settings on both headphones:- FLAT EQ-…”
“Affordable: The newly released 1000X THE COLLEXION was briefly considered, but I didn't feel a significant difference for the price, so I chose this product after comparing it with AirPods Pro 2 and Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones (2nd generation). All brands produced good sound. Apple is like a premium beef bowl, Bose is a delicious but hard-to-eat hamburger, and Sony feels like affordable sushi that doesn't rotate. I generally use it with EQ off. For movie watchers or those who want to customize with EQ, SONY…”
“In the range of 30,000 to 70,000 yen for wireless earphones and headphones, is this the best choice and final destination? Sony's serious effort: If you're looking for something portable, high-quality (a given), with excellent noise cancellation, design, and microphone performance, this product boasts a level of completeness that can be considered one of the best options and final destinations. It has already received very high ratings and praise from overseas review sites like SoundGuys and TechRadar, and I can…”
“The bass is lacking: It has completely become an essential part of daily life. As expected from SONY, the noise-canceling performance is excellent, and it captures sound delicately and accurately. However, those who prioritize bass may find it insufficient.”
“Please provide an update to allow wired use with USB-C: Ambient sound pickup (there's a hiss noise, but it's not noticeable when playing sound)〇 Noise cancellation (for headphones)〇 Fit is quite tight△ Microphone◎ Sound quality〇 (bass isn't too strong, but well balanced and not tiring to listen to, cinema mode is also quite good) Overall balance is good, but there's one ridiculous flaw: it can't be used wired with USB-C. Not being able to use it without delay unless using 3.5mm is a significant disadvantage for…”
“Good: It's light and comfortable to wear for a long time. The sound quality is great. It's really easy to use.”
“5 stars ^_^5 stars ^_^: It has been like a month since I’ve bought the XM6 and let me just say I absolutely love them.I’m very impressed with its noise cancellation.The sound is great too. You can adjust it’s EQ on the Sound Connect app.The only thing that I don’t like is that yes, the earcups do get dirty very easily. Especially if you have an oily face ( though that problem can be solved by just wiping it with a cloth but there will be some small residue that will stay. )Overall, it’s worth the money if you’re…”
“流石SONY 一流の仕事: まず結論から言うと、すごくいい言葉が出ないけど書いていくね。音質面に関してなんだけど、多くの人がレビューしている通りでOKです。低音域タイトで締まりの良い低音域だが、しかし決して迫力がないわけではない。量感もしっかりとある。だがこの量感がちょうど良く、心地よい低音域に感じる（迫力が足りないという方も中にはいるかも）。中音域前に出るボーカル、いやこれはもう最高ですね。艶がありながら定位感があり、目を瞑るとまるで目の前で歌っているのではと錯覚してしまうほど良いですね（今どきのものだったら普通なのかな？）。まぁ私好みでした。高音域ここが一番感動しました。さすがSONYと思わされました。具体的に言うと、高音域は伸びる。ただエッジのあるような伸び方ではなく、少し角を丸められたような感じの高音域で、かつ伸びるような高音域をイメージしてもらえればわかるかな。滑らかなんですよね。スッと伸びる女性ボーカルの高音域は、聞いてて言葉にしにくいような感動がある。全体低音域はタイトでかつ迫力を損なわない量感で、中音域はしっかりと前に出る。そして…”
