    Sony WH1000XM3 Wireless Industry Leading Noise Canceling Over Ear Headphones, Silver (WH-1000XM3/S)

    • No distortion, good bass, highs, and mids
    • I think they also sound better (clarity, dynamics, bass) than the XM2 and QC35.
    • That said i like bass and man these things can put out in a clean way where the bass isnt distracting at all
    • I thought the bass might've been too strong with the Sony headphones, and I was right
    • Sound quality is very good with rich bass but no to much bass
    • Good:-Excellent noise cancelling, same as 1000XM2's-Excellent sound signature (tighter and deeper bass than XM2's, the tiniest bit wider sound stage due to larger ear cups)-Massively improved comfort due to larger ear cups and improved headband
    • Nice, smooth, even, spectacular, and TOO MUCH bass
    • It is balanced sound, with rich but not boosted bass.

    • It's really bad now, songs with good bass is a pain to listen to
    • (Default setting is too bassy, but if you decrease the "clear bass" on the equalizer screen in the app, it becomes better.)Bose, on the other hand, does not immerse you in the music
    • Bass is overwhelming and everything ends up being a mellow that lacks any sort of clarity.• Bluetooth is still not good enough
    • Bass is strong and trebles are
    • My preferred settings are to drop the 400Hz bar to -3, and put the Clear Bass setting at -1
    • +4 on 16K and “Clear Bass” remains at 0.
    • The bass bleeds too much into the mid-range IMHO and the stage is rather narrow - which is surprising because with all the DSP going inside one would think that it's trivial to EQ them to the user's preferences - and one would be wrong because there is no EQ function at all in the companion phone app
    • No distortion, good bass, highs, and mids
    • The sound is also quite good, with the punchier bass a plus for me
    • The sound while playing music is just great, and I did tweak my preference through the app manually, adding some clear bass to it
    • Go into the equalizer in the app and turn down the "clear bass" by 2 to 5 units, depending on your taste and your normal listening level
    • The basses are great
    • looking for, the bass still sounds a tad muddied and the mids and highs always seem not upfront as i wish it to be... but what I get in the end is still very very good and impressive
    • I’m not going to say that these sound nearly as good as most of my wired headphones, but for everyday-on-the-go-beat-them-up-with-ANC these are exciting.
    • You will hear your steps as "thud"s, 3 times louder than Bose
