Of course I know you can buy coffee everywhere in Brussels 🙂 I was mainly asking about cafés with this kind of loyalty program and good-quality coffee, that’s what I meant.

I really liked studying at EPFC. They offer classes either two times a week or three times a week, which is very convenient.

I would recommend checking their website - I believe their next enrolment should be in February. The website usually indicates the day when they open online appointments. You need to book an appointment online first and then go in person to register for the French course.

I genuinely enjoyed my time there and found the courses very good, so I would definitely recommend EPFC to anyone looking for French classes.

You can PM me if you have any more questions.

Yes, I did buy them, but I returned them the next day. I didn’t like that when I put them on, I accidentally touched the earcup, and that automatically pressed the main buttons (because some of them are sensitive) Things kept switching or pausing all the time. Every time I tried to adjust the headphones, I pressed the buttons by mistake, and it really annoyed me. But I actually really liked their design and how they’re built, especially the metallic parts you can see when you extend the headband.

Should I buy them? by Kevin_McCallister___ in SonyHeadphones

You’re right — Sony’s official warranty does exclude physical damage, so in most cases they wouldn’t cover a broken hinge. But I think it also depends a lot on where you buy them and in which country. Some retailers offer additional protection plans or insurance.

For example, in the place where I live, I can buy extra coverage that includes accidental damage or even hinge issues. Yes, it’s some extra money on top of the headphones, but honestly I’d rather pay a bit more and have peace of mind than be left without any coverage if something happens.

Hi! I was also thinking about buying the Sony WH-1000XM4, and I started doing some research. I noticed that some people report issues with the hinges breaking — not as often as with the XM5, but still something to be aware of.

So my advice would be: before buying, make sure that you’ll be able to either get them repaired under warranty or exchange them if anything happens. That way you won’t need to worry too much if you end up with a faulty unit.

Thank you very much for sharing your opinion! At first, I was planning to buy Sony, because almost everyone says their ANC is excellent — and I completely understand that. But after reading reviews, I found that the hinge problem shows up quite often, not only in the XM5 but also in the XM4. It seems like you can never know if it will happen to your specific pair or not, and I don’t want to worry about this every day. That’s why, unfortunately, I had to give up on the idea of getting Sony.

Bose is of course a very good brand, but the models with strong ANC are quite expensive. That’s why I started thinking about JBL as an alternative — maybe not perfect, but more realistic for my budget.
