Noise cancellation, wireless, over the ear no more than $350
My friend is looking for a comfortable set of headphones. He was thinking about Bose so I said I would help him out. There's the Sennheiser Momentum 3.0 on sale for that price now. Any other recommendations? Sony WH1000MX3? WH1000MX4? B&W PX7? Shure Aonic 50?- charmerci

I had the somewhat same impression as theheadphoneguy until I modified them - so unless you want to take them apart and dampen them...... though I have no experience with those Sony's.- charmerci

Did you see if tightening the screws inside the headband helped? If they're solid, try unscrewing them and looking inside.- charmerci

They sound pretty good to me (modded) for a set of $25 headphones, that is.- charmerci

For headphones under $50, my criteria is that they just don't make my ears bleed or feel like they're drilling holes in my head!- charmerci

I really didn't like these at all until I did mods on them. If you're not going to return them, I suggest that you do so. My mods are on p.58 on this thread and there's continuing discussion of it and its variations from there.- charmerci
