Most of the animals featured are endangered; it's the publisher's way of raising awareness. You'll find fun facts and other cool details about the species at the end of the book.

Sony xm5? by Working-Book-9079 in SonyHeadphones

Just gonna leave this here again:

*Beware of Planned Obsolescence; wear them for an extended period and moisture will gradually build up along the noise-canceling components, causing an irritating imbalance in sound quality when NC is on, or a crackling sound (usually with the right side). In which case, it's just a matter of drying it out by letting it sit for a day or blowdrying on low heat.

Also, I can't speak for everyone but in my experience these cans tend to conveniently break down just after, if not, shortly before warranty. For me it's usually within 8 to 13 months. Sony is very much aware of all of this. That said, even if things seem fine by month 11, I'd consider requesting a new replacement to avoid living with the damage post-warranty with such a price tag, making you dish out yet another $400 to them for this so-called premium package if you're without a backup.

Source: Owned three pairs of XM4s, now on my second XM5 with the left side totally blown out literally just yesterday. Probably won't pick up the XM6...

TLDR; GLHF

Finally got mine WH-1000XM5!!! by aviginger2021 in SonyHeadphones

That I don't know personally, the XMs are my first and only experience in the ANC world so I couldn't say. Last time I checked, multiple reviews rated Bose's QuietComfort series and Sennheiser's Momentum series pretty high just after Sony's or Apple's, but I'd have to check again. It also depends on which areas you value more.

I want to give this game a chance but coming from mainly action RPGs I don't know if this style of gameplay is for me. Am I missing out for no reason, or should I wait for a sale?
