  • It should perform a little better as a headset. Battery isn't replaceable

  • Sony did what, many may think, was the impossible. And that was making its best-selling MDR-1000X headphones even better, while also dropping the price. The WH-1000X M2's are some of the best headphones on the market. It really checks all of the right box...

  • Abstract:  Leave a commentSony's $499 WH1000XM2 noise cancelling headphones remind me of a few crusty university academics I've known; brilliantly clever but no common sense at all. These are among the best noise cancellers I've tried, but take them flying, as most...
