Once I started using ANC, I couldn't go back.

I love my xm1000xhmx4s, I've been using them every day for a year and a half and they've been consistently great. The noise cancelling really helps let the bass through in public spaces.

That's a wild model number

They threw in a few extra characters but you’d never know based on how Sony names things.

I have both the headphones and earbuds! spent a fair bit but so worth it, especially for public transport.

As someone who is sensitive to loud noises, ANC in headphones is really useful for when I need silence in a pinch

I can't concentrate with loud noises as well.

I am using focal bathys, they are so good

I have Jabra Evolve2 75's for work. ANC probably doesn't isolate as much as others but it works enough for me. The other features like hear-through works very well.

I love having my Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro 2 for sports/daily wear, but I do pull out my normal IEMs when I get a chance to sit down or using open backs at home.
