You can now use your Sony headphones as a free real-time head tracker for race and flight simulators on PC, several hundred games already supported — enthusiast creates open-source app that translates live sensor data into in-game camera controls

Sony WH-1000XM5 are excellent headphones, and I would suspect Sony WH-1000XM6 are as well (I own XM4 and XM5). The rest I can't speak for.

Sennheiser HDB 630 Quick Impressions

Just got these in and wow — out of the box they sound superb. The tuning is really neutral and everything comes together seamlessly. The bass has great extension and presence — it adds solid weight and heft to the music without bleeding into the mids or muddying up vocals. Speaking of vocals, they’r

Dica pra quando for comprar fone com ANC: não confie nas fabricantes

Vejo muita gente que quer comprar fone com ANC se orientando pelo número que a fabricante fornece de "até X dB de atenuação", mas isso é uma tática desonesta que é aplicada pra enganar o consumidor na hora da compra.

Muita gente não se atenta no "ATÉ", que é onde tá a pegadinha. Não é que um QCY H

It's NOT THAT GROSS

Sony WH-1000XM6 work wonders when I need to tune out a baby on a flight. For some reason, my wife gives me shit about not helping her with our son though. I can't really tell what she's saying. (Seriously though, they're great. You can probably find XM5s somewhere for a decent discount. The XMs have

Vad är bra over ear hörlurar?

Sony WH-1000XM6 är helt fantastiska. De anses av nästan hela internet som de bästa hörlurarna när det gäller ANC.

If you want to stop your neighbor's bass at night do this:

Here's what I do - I live next to noisy bar and lost my mind for about a year straight, until I bought Sony WH-1000XM6 for noise blocking and sleep with them. I also bought a pillow designed to sleep with headphones - I use an amazon brand called lelefido. Lastly, I have a small fan, an AC unit, and

Loud neighbors caused a meltdown and husband won’t understand

I spend all my awake hours wearing Sony WH-1000xm6 for ANC. Really helps a ton with noise when I'm not in bed. I'd really recommend getting good ANC.

Christmas gift ideas for the wife that “doesn’t need anything.”

Go for something like a nice headphones like the new Sony WH-1000XM6, or the amazon kindle colorsoft. Another great gift is just as simple as some good silk sheets or a towel warmer to pamper her some. Since you say you don't have a tub to relax, maybe other relaxing gifts like a eye massager, foot

Parhaat kuulookket

Valco saattaa olla heidän omien mainoslauseiden mukaan "parhaat kuulokkeet, joihin sinulla on varaa". Muutoin Sony WH-1000XM6, Sennheiser Momentum 5 tai Focal Bathys. Jos olet Appletyyppi, Airpods Max. Applella ja Sonyllä tehokkain melunesto, Sennheiserissa paras äänenlaatu. Focalin Bathysiä en vali
