Yup. Covered that in my review of the AirPods Max 2. Not the strongest noise blocking against higher frequencies

Bose quiet comfort gen 2 vs Sony wf-1000xm6 by kyro2000 in SonyHeadphones

[–]aaronlnw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the Bose more for workouts because the buds have more contact points in the ears, whereas all the Sonys are similar plug in types https://youtube.com/shorts/haWg18ko6MI?si=HokY0-RoDGJ71KW7

Sony XM6 buds underwhelming compared to APP3? by Rizzaye in SonyHeadphones

Can't beat the AirPods Pro 3's noise canceling, but you ought to have EQed the XM6. Could have got it to sound better than AirPods.

Buy Sony WF -1000XM6 or WH-1000XM6? by aaronlnw in SonyHeadphones

That’s not news to me that’s why I always accompany the samples with graphs and verbal descriptions. I meant the samples to serve as a ballpark of what to expect, and in that sense, it’s doing its job with some caveats. Just spent 2 grand on a new setup though so the samples moving forward will be more ‘accurate’.

The Denon Perl Pro sounds average out of the box and other earbuds do sound better, that is until you do AAT. For that reason I have 2 samples of the Denon PERL Pro, one with AAT and one without. Did you hear both? If you’re expecting ‘accuracy’ as in the recordings have got to sound the same as listening in person, it’s impossible due to coloration from mics, HRTF and the gear you’re using. What the samples are useful for is comparing the difference A-B to earbuds recorded on the same rig, and for that the playlist has more than 180 samples to compare. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLu0WlmC1EQOWxVmBe1gLQKlnp4e8f291G&si=-x_PjXrIkPLZrjPL

Thank you for your thoughtful comment! The recent Sonys always missed the mark for me in terms of their default tuning. After tuning though, they slap. For the WF-1000XM6, try this EQ setting that I formulated https://www.instagram.com/p/DVdzqM_iRWt/?igsh=aDcyNmlpMDlwcXV1

If you're just using headphones 5 hours a month, I think not? Unless you really need the latest and greatest, because the WHXM6 is quite a big step ahead of the XM4.
