Sony MDR-1000x BT NC Headphone Review
Ced Yuen posted a great review of the sone to be released Sony MDR-1000x noise cancelling bluetooth headphone over on Trusted Reviews. This is the third review where the reviewer has stated that the noise cancelling is at least as good as the Bose-QC35. Looks like Sony has a winner here. The driver is based on the MDR-1a which is also what the BT MDR-1ABT uses. Which, by the way, I own and love. Unfortunately, the 1ABT isn’t built for isolation so I can’t wait for the 1000x.
PROS
Light and comfortable, Excellent noise-cancelation, Superb sound quality, Adjustable ANC level, Excellent mic for calls, Long battery life
CONS
There’s a knack to the touch controls
Sony MDR-1000X Noise Cancelling Bluetooth Headphone Review
Sony is releasing a new bluetooth Hi-Res noise canceling headphone. I recently purchased their MDR-1ABT/S Hi-Res headphone and absolutely love it.
Linked below is a review of the 1000x along with more information from What Hi*Fi?. The headphones are due out in October. Priced around $399.
I also included a second preliminary review by CNET. Sounds like Sony is going after Bose.
