Bose QC Ultra 2 vs Sony XM6
I’ve recently purchased and tested both the XM6 and Bose QuietComfort Ultra 2, and here is my brief review:
-
Sound Quality: Slight edge to the QC Ultra 2, sound feels slightly fuller with a slightly wider soundstage, even after EQ on the XM6. Again, the difference is slight, and hard to notice.

Upstairs neighbour noisy every weekend — need cheap quiet places to crash 2–4 nights/wk
I can suggest Bose quiet comfort ultra earbuds, they're $239 but it cancels out even the brown line train screeching .

2nd Gen Bose QC Ultra Headphones now have fewer microphones
In the 1st gen Ultra Headphones there were 12 microphones, now there are only 10.
For those who have already bought the 2nd generation, please test if these issues that people experienced with the first version are present or not:

I think I’m now that neighbor
Yep. Came here to say the same thing Noise canceling earbuds are the answer. I have Bose Quiet Comfort Ultras. They're great. You can vary the level of noise cancelation to filter noise or block it completely.

Funktionsweise Noise Cancelling Kopfhörer
Nicht am falschen Ende sparen, der Unterschied zwischen "no name" und Marke, ist hier deutlich. Ich hatte mal so 40.- Eur "NC" Dinger und das war einfach nur schlecht. Jetzt, wahlweise mit Apple Air Pods Pro 2 und 3 (die 2er passen bei mir bisschen besser) oder den (falls Over Ear) Bose QuietComfort

Whats a thing you own that you are convinced everyone should go buy right now?
My daughter wears headphones all the time. Loves it for music, phone connection, computer, etc. She is in college and had a cheaper set. I got her Bose Quiet Comfort Ultra for Christmas. She so loves the sounds and it's ability to pull through voices and cancel noise. It is like 10 steps up and she

best noise cancelling headphones for focus and reducing distractions?
They’re an investment but I love the Bose quiet comfort ultra headphones 🎧 I wear them from the moment I wake up until bedtime and they are the only thing I’ve found that has battery life that long. I even use them for work and I watch tv through them. Sometimes I just leave it on noise cancelling w

Bose QuietComfort Ultra
I just picked up another pair of QC’s. I have owned every pair since the QC 15’s and god damn they have killed it. I own a bunch of more expensive brands and really just needed another pair for the best noise cancelling headphones for studying and work because gave my older pair to my brother. I am
