Noise Cancelling Recording Headphones

Have 2 other Bose Noise-Cancelling headphones over the years and I always felt somewhat disappointed in the quality of the noise cancelling, but figured this is what it is. Now I know differently. These Sony headphones literally shut down nearly all the noise where I can't hear anyone talking to me and priced reasonably, unlike the Bose or Apple headphones.

Shopped around a lot to find inexpensive noise cancelling headphones for the recording studio in our youth center. The youth are rough on them and we generally go through them fast. Youth don't seem to know the difference between these and the more expensive ones we bought previously. Plus these have proven to be quite durable. Great bang for the buck. Didn't have to compromise.

Best noise cancelling headphones in the market right now

I am loving my new headphones, cleanest sound ever and a good noise cancelling.

These are great headphones and I really love the noise cancelling feature.

Great as Bluetooth headphones, over the ear wired headphones and noise cancelling.

Ive had several other noise cancelling headphones by Bose (QC35 II) and Beats (Studio Wireless) and I always hailed Bose as king of Noise Cancelling headphones. Now the only thing that Bose has over Sony is the durability of the headphones, my Bose headphones I could pretty much bend however I wanted and they wouldn't break. The Sony's are a bit more stiff, but the material is still premium! I originally went with Bose because of their comfort though, I like to wear my headphones for an extended period of time and the old Sony's (XM1 and XM2) got uncomfortable after a few hours. With the new design however, I can see myself wearing these all day! What does Sony have to offer that's better than Bose? - Noise cancelling (much better) - Sound quality - Battery life - Customization through app - Accessories (better quality auxiliary charger cords, as well as a good airplane adapter!!) - USB-C Charger!!! (as a MacBook Pro owner this was a must, I hated micro-usb so much) - Comfort? (I'm still testing this out but ill update in a few weeks if its better or on-par with the Bose QuietComfort 35 ii)

With COVID-19 and the stay at home order Noise Cancelling Headphones became a necessity for me. I tried a competitor's headphones and decided they were not good enough I could still hear everyone talking. Then I bought these. Amazing sound quality, lightweight, easy pairing, power saving, noise cancelling is wonderful! I can't hear a thing that's going on outside of the headphones.

These are not noise-cancelling headphones, but they are close. They are also heavy. If that bothers you, look elsewhere.

I love these headphones. They are extremely comfortable and the noise cancelling is mazing.
