Full review: http://www.rtings.com/headphones/reviews/sony/mdr-1000x
***We've updated our Build Quality score for the Sony MDR-1000x , to better reflect the manufacturing issues with the headband.***
The Sony MDR-1000x are well-designed and sturdy wireless headphones with one of the best noise cancellation we've measured so far. They're comfortable and packed with active features that make them versatile enough for most use cases. They don't have the best sound for more critical listeners, but their overall performance makes them great headphones for every day, casual use.
