So these are the Sony ULT Wear headphones, and just like the rest of Sony’s ULT line up… Sony has been refining and improving all of their products. Now even though these headphones have an all new and much simpler name… these are actually the successors to both the Sony XB910N and Sony XB900N headphones. So if you’re in the market for a pair of Solid mid tier ANC headphones, or if you’re thinking about upgrading from the Sony XB910N or Sony XB900N… lets see what the Sony ULT Wear’s are all about.
Sony XB900N Vs Skullcandy Crusher Evo
If you’re a bass head then both the Sony XB900N and the new Skullcandy Crusher Evo’s are great options to choose from. But these headphones are very different one another… and I like to think that the Sony’s are better suited for the responsible and logical bass head… and the Crusher Evo’s are better suited for the I don’t care, give me all you’ve got bass heads. So if you’re a bass head trying to decide between these two headphones, lets see which ones right for you.
Sony WH-XB910N Predictions
Now that its the second half of 2020, most of Sony’s ANC headphone line has been refreshed. First we got the WH-H910N’s AKA the H.ear On 3’s, then we got the Sony WH-CH710N’s, and most recently we’ve gotten the Sony 1000XM4’s. But now, the Sony XB900N’s which were released in the summer of 2019 are the oldest headphones here and they’re the most likely to get upgraded next. So here’s my wish list for what I would like to see on the next version of these and when I think we’ll get them.
Sony 1000XM4 Vs Sony XB900N
So for while now sony has been killing it when it comes to ANC headphones. And in general if you’re looking for a pair of premium ANC headphones than the Sony 1000XM4’s are a good option and if you’re looking for a pair of mid tier ANC headphones then the Sony XB900N’s are a good option as well. But now that we have the new Sony 1000XM4’s the differences between these two headphones is a little more significant than when we would compare the XB900N to the previous 1000XM3’s. So today we’re going to be comparing these two headphones an see which ones right for you.
Sony's ANC Headphone Lineup Explained
So right now as of the second half of 2020 Sony has a mostly refreshed lineup of ANC headphones. The newest headphones to be released here are the Sony 1000XM4’s, but the Sony WH-CH710N’s and the Sony WH-H910N’s aka the H.ear On 3’s were released a few months ago. But then we also have the Sony XB900N’s which are a little over a year old now but these are still one of my favorite mid tier ANC headphones to recommend. But nonetheless today we’re going to break down Sony’s current headphone lineup and see which one is right for you.
Razer Opus Vs Sony WH-XB900N Vs Surface Headphones 2
So like I've said many times already, the Razer Opus are a pair of very well built $200 headphones that definitely try to punch about their weight class. And I feel its actually easier to compare these headphones to mid their ANC headphones like the Sony XB900N and surface Headphones 2… rather than comparing them to other $200 headphones. So lets see how the Razer Opus stack up to these two mid tier ANC headphones.
Sony XB900N Vs Surface Headphones 2 Vs JBL Club 950NC
So first the premium ANC headphone market, which are headphones that retail for around $350 got really competitive. But now, I feel that the mid tier ANC headphone market is about to get very competitive as well cause Microsoft slashed the price of their new Surface headphones 2 and JBL recently released their new Club950NC’s. But then there are also the Sony XB900N’s which are a year old now, but they’re still a great pair of mid tier ANC headphones.
JBL Club 950NC Review
So these are the new JBL Club 950NC’s… they’re JBL’s new mid tier ANC headphones from their new Club series line up. Now even though these headphones are packed with features and they even have a bass boost mode for you bass heads… unfortunately I feel these headphones fall really short when it comes to fit and comfort. And I really feel that thats a real shame cause everything else about them is pretty good.
