Ambient Mode Sony Headphones

The Sony 7506 headphones are a staple in our production house and are a little better with the deep earpads by sealing our ambient noise. The included carry case was also a nice addition, it is sturdy and is better for managing the cord that a pouch or bag.

I bought these for the noise cancelling aspect of them, all without realizing that you can turn it off and put them in ambient mode. So I'll say these have been a great purchase and I have been using them regularly

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Has good clear sound and ok anc but the ambient sound mode needs work for sure sounds too robotic and it has a high pitched sound when you put ur hand up to the mics. Overall good product for the price

I bought these earbuds a month ago and today they came in. I have been wearing them all day, I just can't take them off. The ambient sound mode is amazing. One of my best purchases yet!

Best headphones I’ve ever had. Love that I can hear the ambient noise as well. Much safer.

These AfterShokz OpenMove Wireless Bone Conduction Open-Ear Bluetooth Headphones are well made and the sound quality is very good. They let you hear music and phone calls without blocking ambient sounds. Headphones with noise cancellation are fine if you want to block out ambient noise. But noise cancellation or even sound deadening aren’t desirable when driving a car, jogging or just being out for a walk when you need to hear traffic, horns honk and the like. Even in an office environment, you can listen to music or do a virtual meeting and still hear your boss yell at you. LOL. Seriously, these are perfect when you want to listen to music or an audio book but need to be alert to your surroundings.

I tried the Bose QC-35 wireless headphones and they were very nice, but they could not stand up to the excellent noise cancelling ability of the Sony’s! It will transform your traveling experience from noisy and stressful to quiet and blissful. These are expensive, but it’s because of the superior quality and technology in them. The touch controls work great, even though I have accidentally tapped them when taking off the headphones. The instant quiet/ambient sound mode is extremely helpful. By just placing your hand over the ear of the headphone you can silence the music and it also amplified the ambient sound around you for easy conversation with those around you. The battery life is incredible and with just a few minutes of charge you can get 5-8 hours of playtime! The ear cups are very ergonomic and comfortable even for very long usage (4 hours). Great construction and fold up into a small case.

With regular headphones I always had to turn up the volume way too loud to hear over the ambient noise at the gym. Now I can put in some earplugs and hear my music at a peaceful level. So much safer for my hearing! The tiny controls are a little difficult for my arthritic hands, but I can manage.

Over the ear headphones reduce ambient noise. Sound quality is very good for mono headphones.

Great headphones! I love being able to hear the ambient sounds around me while wearing these. It’s also great not having to try to keep stupid earbuds in my uncooperative ears! Easy to use, work perfectly!
