#Need real-world feedback - considering returning Sony XM6

I'd love some real-world feedback while I consider returning my XM6. I used to have AirPods Max (lightning port) that I sold due to its weight and port as I try to move to a USB-C only setup. I couldn't stand the case and the weight.

I am

Side question: How do you like the Sony WH-1000XM6? I have the XM4 version and can't figure out from reviews if the noise-passthrough mode and ANC are noticeably better?The XM3 noise-passthrough mode is really bad, wheres the Jabra Evolve65 Flex (call headset) for example makes it sound like im not

I have a big head so I just found the xm6 uncomfortable overall. The top headband felt uncomfortable after using them for a decent amount of time. The WC XLs helped a lot on the clamping force, but it still felt uncomfortable. I prefer the heavier bass that I got when I had tried the Bose before. I

PCMag says the Airpods Max 2 have better ANC, by a hair. https://www.pcmag.com/comparisons/apple-airpods-max-2-vs-bose-quietcomfort-ultra-vs-sony-wh-1000xm6-who-wins

Not just better balanced and more detailed, it’s just overall more musical and separates vocals and instruments in a way that I’ve never heard from a headphone before. It’s bro

Big mistake of you to think ANC will help in the case of recording drums in a music studio. ANC isn't speedy enough to react to loud transients like a snare drum hit with a drum stick (or two) - not even Sony wh-1000xm6 will have a chance despite having the market best & most advanced ANC. What you

The adaptive ANC is a terrible feature (the ANC changes based on whatever it thinks is appropriate) Sony WH XM5 and WH XM6 have this feature too and it is annoying.

I’m currently comparing a set of Gen and Gen 2 along with the JBL Tour One M2 that were clearance $165. Coming from JBL Live 660nc that still serve me well I have a bit of loyalty and love for JBL but they are currently losing to both Bose models lol. I have found the eq simplicity and easy to dial

I have the px8 s2 and my wife has the px7 s3. Were In love with both pairs. I bought and returned the Sony xm6, the Bose quiet comfort 2, and the AirPod max. I think they both blow all of them away. Also we just both wore both on 4 flights and they blocked out almost all sound. You just have to have
