These headphones are powered by Sony’s new HD Noise Canceling Processor QN3, which is seven times faster than the chip used in the previous generation. Combined with 12 built-in microphones, the XM6 can adapt to your surroundings in real time, blocking out everything from airplane engines to office chatter.
As mentioned in our review of the Sony XM6 headphones, sound quality is another major win here. Sony co-created the XM6 with professional mastering engineers, resulting in audio that feels clean, balanced, and true to the original recording of whatever you’re listening to; be it podcasts, streaming movies, or diving into lossless music, the detail really shines through.
