      @@MikeWat I have a hard time understanding why people say the XM3s sound better than the Bose be it the QC35 or NC700. I just bought both (NC700 and XM3) because I couldn't decide. While the Sony does trash the Bose in terms of ANC and portability Bose really plays better than Sony in terms of sound quality. The Sonys are very base heavy and thus have a boomy sound to them. They over emphasize base beyond what is neutral and what is even worse is that they don't replay all the low (base) frequencies with equal strength. Bose headphones tend to stay more neutral and playback sound as was intended by the musicians, their base accuracy is far more correct. The sonys get muddy an loose detail in complicated music while the Bose do a better job at separating instruments in eg. in complicated classical pieces. The Sony's are also weak in terms of trebble where Bose really manages to get a nice treble.

    Bose got NFC too. I used them both and purchased the Bose. QC35 was a lot more comfortable than the Sony's. With xm3 my my ears got uncomfortably hot after 10 min of use with ANC on. I also found them to be bass heavy (a bit too much). Sony's Noise cancellation is SLIGHTLY better but Bose offers much better comfort. Do keep in mind though with the Bose when there is no music playing you can feel Cabin Pressure a little more than the Sony's. Fine when playing music even at a very low volume.

    Bose would literally just have to add a few small features and a better app to the QC35II's and they'd be the king of headphones easily. I mean 2019 and Sony can only pair to one device still... big let down, more so then anything Bose is missing out on. Seriously thinking about buying a pair of Bose despite the new 700s and the Sony's being reviewed better. I purely need something for comfort listening (TH-cam, Movies, Music either on my Laptop or Phone while at home) so NC isn't a must but it will help with some house noises like the washing machine or vacuum and all those tech features Sony has really doesn't make me want to buy them any more then what Bose offer, I have zero need for most of them.
    Also on a preference note, I prefer a neutral sound so I think Bose win on that.

    One thing to note about the Sony's that annoys me to no end, even though it uses 3.5mm to plug into the headphones you can 't just buy any 3.5mm male to male cord. The port is pretty deep inside of the headphones and you'll need to make sure it can go all the way in to use it.

I tried both at the store before getting qc35 and I didn’t really see the difference in ANC.

  • @nikolailu
    @nikolailu 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    To have to take off the headphones to just speak on the phone (As with the sonys) I'm afraid is a deal breaker for me, especially when combined with only 1 pairing. The higher sound quality and ANC in sony's I'm afraid does not outweigh those huge negatives (pretty much no mic for call talk, and only 1 item pairing), as it's not that higher to outweigh it.

      Get the beyerdynamic DT 770 headphones their 150 ish or more depending on which one you want. Then depending on the type you get, choose an amp to make them sound 1000 times better. The beyerdynamic DT 770 are not really flashy cool looking headphones portable because of the ugly wire but their professional recording studio headphones designed for good bass with clarity throughout the music. 80 to less ohm version don't require a strong amp, so any 150 or less dollar worth of an amp should be good. For the 250 ohm(the best for clarity) requires a more high end portable amp. I heard the 80 ohm is the best for bass.

    • @sussychachi

      If you want something that's good for all types of genres the Audiotechnica m50x give a flat sound which means with an amp they come to life and provide an equal sound (the flatter the sound the more it sounds like the original sound of what the music is suppose to sound like).

Oh and not to mentioned bose does have muti-pairing features that works perfectly while I'm listening music on laptop and answer the phone when it rings.

    I was about to purchase the sonys but I had not tried them on, so I went to my local best buy and gave them a spin. I am no audio file but I now a good pair of heads to bad ones. I have had Bose products in the past (earbuds and wired over ear) both sounding good to me and I from reviews on the sonys i was thinking "hmm, these are so much better than the Bose." But when I got to best buy and went back and forth between Bose and Sony and came to a confusing conclusion that that I just enjoyed the Bose more than the Sonys, the sonys we clear and loud and the bass TO me was alright but the Bose were crisp and clean and the bass was soooooo good, I might sound crazy but I like the Bose more than the sonys even with all the nice feature from sony.

    Hey young Mike. This is a very serious question. I have been trying to find headphones for about 6 years now that block out my wife's snoring, she had an operation and has since turned into a rhino or something when she sleeps. It's really bad to the point we have to sleep in separate rooms just so I can get some sleep. We even tried sperate beds across the same room but it was still too loud and by the way, I take sleeping tablets too.lolol, oh my poor life. Lol. Good job I love her. Aaneey waay! Sound quality and comfort are not the point here, I can deal with lack of comfort and I only listen to podcasts or audible books. My big question is purely ANC. Which set of cans has the best active noise cancellation when turned on? I know they will not completely hide her racket but which will do the best job? Consider yourself as a marriage saver for this English couple. Lol. Thanks in advance. By the way, for a young chap your videos have great style but be careful not to over do that style. I think you have it just right (I have watched quite a few of your videos now whilst trying to research). Also, you do manage to actually get a lot of good info into your videos which a lot of TH-camrs think they are doing when being loud but all they are doing is being loud. You actually do your research and own experience and get it to stylish videos. So, well done young fella and thank you.

    Bro what are you talking about. The Sony distortion at Max Volume??? What music are you listen to? I use a LG V20 to stream Spotify Premium via LDAC technology and the SONY sound marvelous. Before purchasing I went to listen to both headphones in Japan and the Bose sounded like a Toy. Completely Equalized in A shape. So muffled exactly like the Beats. People saying how good the Bose sound are people that have already bought it and don't want to trash it or that never listened to a good set of headphones via a good DAC/AMP. Sony made the best sounding bluetooth headphone out there hands down and Bose needs to step up their game in sound quality if they want to compete.

    Most reviews tend to agree which of these headphones are better at ANC but tend to wildly vary on which are better for music. I personally side with reviewers who Sony's stage narrower and the sound muddier. Although I own neither I have listened to both when doing research. I will probably go for the Bose ones, and will have to live with the weaker ANC capability.

    I actually have both of them, I bought the Bose first then bought the Sony's after seeing a couple of reviews. Here's what I think is better on each headphone.
    Sony: Sound (adjustable EQ and Soundstage is absolutely amazing), Noise cancelling, Build Quality, Battery, Touch Controls, Value
    Bose: Comfort (these are more spacious and are much more comfortable), Multi-device connection, better call microphones
    Overall, Sony has a better sound quality and top of the line noise cancellation. Also, the touch controls are spectacular. But if you are gonna wear over-ear ANC headphones on the street or for longer periods, go with Bose, as it's much more comfortable to wear. For travel, both are good but Sony's have better noise cancelling. So I would say go for the Sony over the Bose if you had to choose one, as it has much more advanced controls and quality.

    Love the sound signature of Sony M3's but the most amazing feature for me is the ability to release cabin pressure during flights when reaching high altitudes and when landing, by activating the atmospheric optimizer of the headphone.
