Does Apple even Care? Apple AirPods Max 2 vs. Sony WH-1000XM6 - SoundGuys

I bought the QC 35 and thought it was absolute garbage. Noice cancellation didn’t really work and was buggy. The plastic was so cheap quality and the cushions fell apart by looking at it. Stopped using them and cursed Bose. Many years later I found them and started looking at them more carefully and

This is my second set of ear cups on my quiet comfortable to die this way. The glue is not strong enough to hold up for even a year of being used daily at my desk while I work.

Please, please do not buy the Bose Quietcomfort Ultra Earbuds

I've had such a myriad of issues with them, I've had to have them replaced 3 times due to seal and charging issues. And even when they function as intended, the slight buzzing interferenc

For anyone who needs noise-cancellation

I went through testing out 2 different types of headphones in the past month since the noise where I work is pretty loud (small room, lots of people, and broken thermostats that just keep hissing to try to drive me to madness). I couldn't play sound on them per company policy, so this was at the bas

Kids crying

I keep seeing noise cancelling headphones mentioned on threads like this so excuse my hijacking, but I spent so much money on a pair of Bose QC and they don’t work at all with high pitched, intermittent crying / screaming noises!

Not happy with Bose QC Ultra 2

I recently bought the new Bose QC Ultra Gen 2. for 400 euros directly from the Bose. But after buying them, I'm not really satisfied. My first problem is comfort: I can't wear them longer than about 15 minutes before they start pressing on my ears and getting uncomfortable. The second problem is t
