Listening to them, now. Wow, these do sound better than the AirPods Max. Very well done! The noise isolation is actually pretty close to noise canceling. They feeling comfortable on my had and I don't feel any pressure. They feel better than the Apple Cans. Cool, so these and the XM3 will be my cans for the long run. Best part is, I got them for 30,000 yen.
Passive noise isolation is good on them, though they don’t come close to something that is active (on full-sized), but you have the XM3 for that. I also found them to have better SQ than the AirPods Max as well overall. I wish I could say the same about comfort, without modding the headband a bit they would give me a tender spot on the top of my head after an hour of listening I do feel that they are worth the 400 dollars (if we’re comparing MSRP to MSRP), but I know a lot of people don’t agree with that claiming they’re too dark for their tastes (which I can understand). Getting them for 300 or so USD isn’t a bad price for them though.
