Wide sound stage for a closed back ANC headphone. Clarity and definition are superior to the other headphones I tested which are the Momentum 4s and the Cambridge Melomanias. The base is dynamic and full like mini thunder in your ears without sounding too warm, outstanding. The Sonos headphones are far superior to the other two headphones I tested, in fact I would add that I would not recommend the others over the Sonos at all. I know that's harsh since I'm not even going to list what makes the others inferior, but the difference will sound so clear, there's hardly much to say. I'll put it this way, I had to compare the Sonos with real audiophile headphones that have no features except quality drivers. Yes, the Sonos weren't better but I really spent the time to compare.
For Gaming go with the Sonos over the other headphones because of it's wide sound stage it's much better at handling 7.1 virtual surround sound.
The Sonos are way more comfortable than the other headphones because of how the earpads are designed to curve over your ear, not just sit flat on your ear like the others, while still covering all of your ear. It's an impressive design and just makes them feel great to wear. Also, these have magnetic earpads for easy removal unlike the others.
The Senheisers do use touch controls if you like that. I found them useful but once you learn the controls of the Sonos it won't matter. There's a strange behavior with the ANC options with the Sonos when you disable ANC, the base drops below 50% of its power. However, I believe this is a feature when you don't want it to go on and off in certain areas where you need to external hearing. In addition, you can keep the setting at Adaptive which restores the base with a small open back effect. The third option for full ANC removes the open back effect.
I also found the Sonos more stylish to the other two since hard edges is just how 99% of other headphones look. The headband also sits snug around your head without any weird parts that sticking out like you're in a studio when they simply don't perform that way. I know this part is subjective but I think some people would appreciate these design points.
Overall, while probably more expensive than other wireless ANC headphones, these are just all around great and worth it over the others. Reviews have raved about the Sennheiser over these, I resoundingly disagree.
Other observations are situational. For example, I found that these type of headphones did not need to replace my Airpod Pros when I would go for a walk or a quick hop to the corner store. The sounds of the airpods directly in your ear are just high quality sounding as regular headphones. However, if I had to go somewhere to work all day like at the office, the Sonos were hands down more comfortable in that situation. If you like to sleep with music headphones, these will be far more comfortable than the Airpods sitting in your ear.
Last point is for gaming again. While the Sonos are far better for gaming than the other ones mentioned, they are still wireless ANC headphones meant for all kinds of scenarios. Dedicated headphones that will tether you to your gaming PC or if you want just audiophile headphones, those will probably offer more immersive experience in those situations.

A must if you have Sonos, second only to Bose QC Ultra.
I have a large head and these are good, and just a step down from the Bose QC ultra. However, the Bose feel cheap to me and they drop connections in a busy office neither of which the Sonos has a problem with. It’s definitely better in both those areas. They sound great and they look really, really good. My last video call someone specifically reached out and asked what I was using. From a sound quality perspective they are great. I find them better than the Sony XM five not quite as good as AirPod Max when it comes to transparency. However, the transparency mode is good. These are less hot on the ears than the Sony XM five but not as good as the AirPods Max. The battery life is excellent. I like the battery life better than the Bose QC ultra. Connectivity is good. I like to use it on my iPad and on a Microsoft surface laptop works excellent for those and my phone. It’s a game changer if you have a Sonos arc I love that feature. It allows me to watch TV late at night after my wife is gone to bed without bothering her happy wife happy life… I would buy it again, but if my head was a little bigger, I think I would pass. So if your head is larger than large and smaller, but not quite extra large, it’s a buy.

Este es mi primer par de audífonos de este rango de precio, así que no sabía muy bien qué esperar, pero se escuchan bastante bien, y aunque eso es lo más importante no es lo único que me ha gustado.Isaac RiveraHan cumplido de sobra con mis expectativas
Reviewed in Mexico on January 27, 2025
El diseño me parece bastante bonito, fue uno de los puntos que me hizo ir por estos en vez de otros audífonos, son elegantes a la vez que sencillos, y la construcción es muy buena. Al menos la parte extensible de la diadema es metalica, lo que les da un toque más premium y más durabilidad. El estuche esta bien, solo que el material es propenso a acumular pelusas y polvo, y seguro sería algo difícil de limpiar si se ensuciara. Estos audífonos no se doblan, solo giran, así que es algo que quizá quieras tomar en cuenta. La bolsita con la que vienen no es muy buena, ya que no tiene Zipper, como pensé que sería, aunque tampoco es que use mucho los cables. A mi parecer, son muy cómodos los audífonos, la diadema esta bien acolchada, así que usándolos por varías horas no he sentido ninguna incomodidad.
Sobre las funciones no tengo queja, aunque eso sería mejor que cada persona las viera de acuerdo a sus necesidades. El sensor de los audífonos es muy preciso, los botones funcionas y se sienten bien, la función de doble conexión no me dió ningun problema, era una transición inmediata de un dispositivo a otro, la cancelación de ruido funciona bien, por poner un ejemplo, mi cuarto esta a unos 4 metros de la cocina, y si usan la licuadora, con la cancelación del sonido no la escucho. He visto que hay mejor cancelación en otros audífonos, así que si te interesa mucho esa función quizá debas buscar otra opción.
En cuanto a sonido, me han parecido muy equilibrado. El ecualizador de la app de Sonos es muy sencillo, pero el audio por defecto esta bien. No soy un experto en audio, pero creo que la calidad de sonido que tienen, junto con la calidad de construcción y que son audífonos muy cómodos y bonitos hacen que valgan la pena. En mi caso los compre en oferta a unos 7,500.
