    So like I mentioned in a past video, I didn’t expect to get the WH-1000XM5’s so soon
 and instead of simply replacing the 1000XM4’s
 the 1000XM5’s are just a model above the 1000XM4’s. Nonetheless if you’re trying to decided between any of Sony’s ANC headphones
 today we’re going to break down Sony’s late 2022 ANC headphones line up. We’ve got the Entry level WH-CH710N, the bass ahead XB910N, the old faithful 1000XM4, and the new kid, the 1000XM5.

    Honestly, you blow away a lot of the reviewers on CZcams with much more comparo information for the consumer. I thought those XM-5's looked a little cheap and you brought up the recycled plastic usage which most reviewers wouldn't even know or touch on this fact. I love how you scrutinize the ear pads quality. Bang up job.

    The xb910n are more than enough for me after I found the proper EQ (treble bass with a bit of tweaking), on plane the anc blocked absolutely everything with and without music. If you don't have the budget for the xm4's these will make you very very happy:)

    I am considering the xb910n because it's as close to the xm3 or slightly close to the xm4s in terms of sound quality, sound separation and sound imaging. My main reason for not going for xm4 is budget. Xm4 here goes for around 90$ more than the xb910n

    I tried the 910n’s and xm4’s on display at bestbuy, and they sounded very different. The main difference was that the vocals on the 910n’s were more so in the background. The xm4 vocals were more pronounced. You’re able to EQ fix that right?

    There needs to be more transparency on the fact that the XM5s have a "low gear" and "high gear" when it comes to ANC, and you need to hit a certain threshold before the better ANC kicks in. In normal use, the XM4 has better ANC in my experience, so I wonder at what volume you're setting the noise simulations at.

    If Sony wanted to manufacture headphones like the 1000 xm5, that's fine but it seems like they should have chosen a different name. Especially considering that they are not ending production of the 1000 xm4 which is a good thing. Just even more confusion all around.

    I currently have both XB910N and XM5. I purchased XM5 after trying XM4, XB910N and XM5 at my local Best Buy. I found XM5 to be the most comfortable. I like the extra bass in XB910N, but the overall sound quality of XM5 is so much better. Listening to the same song back to back on XB910N and XM5, you hear details that were completely missing from XB910N. However the immersive experience XB910N provides with its thumping bass is really nice.
