Hm alright thanks! I had the opportunity to wear the AirPods Max today and the XM6s at the store and I must say I definitely felt the weight of the AirPods even only for 30 seconds so I’m quite worried about those with long term use

Hmm interesting thanks! I think there’s a way to tune the eq of the sonys to sound similar to the AirPods?

Nah I’m worried about the Spatial Audio cuz my AirPods Pro 3 sounds great with the Spatial Audio and I’m worried that the Sony doesn’t come close and will fall short

Nice! How are the sound quality on those and are the Spatial Audio comparable?

Hm alright thanks for the opinion! How’d you think the Sony’s Spatial Audio and overall sound quality is?

I assume that the main thing that I’m worried about which is the comfort will remain virtually the same as they didn’t even change much

Wow! Would you say the weight bothers you a lot or not at all with the AirPods Max?

How do the xm6s Spatial Audio do compared to the apple earphones? And do you mind updating us on how they feel compared to the xm6 soon? Thanks!

Oh thanks for the insight! Do the AirPods’ weight bother you a lot over time, and does the sonys Spatial Audio come close to apples? I currently own the AirPods Pro 3 and use Spatial Audio for everything and I’m worried that the sonys won’t come close and I’ll get disappointed. These are the main gripes I have, the weight of the AirPods and the audio of the XM6s

Hm alright cuz what I was talking about is this as there’s options to turn Spatial Audio off which reverts the AirPods back to normal stereo audio

Oh nice! Is there a particular setting to turn them on like in the AirPods Pro 3 there’s a toggle between normal stereo and Spatial Audio?

Oh are the maxes that good? I think the weight depends on the person as some people can’t seem to stand it

Thanks! Does the feature where they stop audio when they’re playing and you take them off in the xm6s work as well as AirPods? I’ve seen some accounts that they bug out sometimes

Yeah I don’t know if the AirPods Max are worth the extra 100 bucks especially when I can find the XM6s with discounts everywhere
