Sony WH-1000XM6 midnight blue

Der Sony WH-1000XM6 stellt den Vorgänger klanglich in jeder Disziplin in den Schatten und lässt sich jetzt auch wieder für besseren Transport zusammenfalten.

Der Sony WH-1000XM6 überzeugt mit exzellentem Noise Cancelling, ausgeglichenem Klang und nützlichen Features wie dem faltbaren Design und windresistenten Mikrofonen. Kritik gibt es jedoch für den erhöhten Anpressdruck, die etwas schmaleren Polster, das fehlende USB-Audio und die eingeschränkte Speak-to-Chat-Funktion. Wer mit diesen Schwächen leben kann, erhält einen Spitzen-Kopfhörer!

Mit der Rückkehr des faltbaren Designs konnte sich Sony bei den WH-1000XM6 viele Vorschusslorbeeren einheimsen! Aber reicht das Zurückbringen eines zwei Jahre alten Features, um den höheren Preis der Kopfhörer zu rechtfertigen? Für nextpit habe ich die neuen Flaggschiff-Kopfhörer knapp drei Wochen lang auf dem Kopf gehabt und kläre im Test alle Fragen, die Ihr vor dem Kauf wissen solltet.

Der Sony WH-1000XM6 dreht an einigen wichtigen Schrauben, um den beliebten Vorgänger zu modernisieren. Wir testen, was der neue Sony-Kopfhörer drauf hat.

Sony's latest flagship headphones are an improvement that not only keeps them in the race...

The Sony WH-1000XM6 are a fantastic pair of over-ear headphones that combine the best design elements of their predecessors, while levelling up the sonic and ANC capabilities of what came before. With super-clean touch controls, an ultra-comfy fit and a ton of features at your disposal, there’s a lot to love about these headphones, even if they do come at quite the cost.

Although they’re not the radical upgrade I was hoping for, the Sony WH-1000XM6 make some minor improvements to Sony’s flagship noise-cancelling headphones. They lack a wide soundstage, but they deliver crystal-clear vocals for close to 30 hours without fail.

Sony's high-end WH-1000XM6 headphones feature foldable earcups, new driver tuning, and noise cancellation that rivals the best from Bose.

The Sony WH-1000XM6 is every bit a worthy successor to Sony's other ANC headphones as you'd hope. They sound very good, have excellent ANC, and are equipped to handle demanding users. However, the lack of cutting-edge connection options might be an issue as the years go by.

Sony upgraded the design and performance of its flagship noise-canceling headphones, pushing them slightly ahead of the competition. But not surprisingly, their price has also increased.

These flagship noise-canceling headphones offer the most silence in history, and great sound to boot.

Sony’s wireless headphones deliver a performance more than befitting a flagship pair of wireless headphones. Comfort levels are great, they’re nice to use, ANC is excellent, call quality is class-leading, and sound quality can match anything at this level. Simply sensational.

If you’ve been a Sony fan then the WH-1000XM6 registers some of the biggest generations in a couple of generations. The design remains comfortable, the noise-cancellation is improved, they’re stacked with features and convenience for the tech-focused and luddite alike; and they sound excellent. But they’re not quite the class-leaders in all categories as previous models were before.

The crown is safe once again. Sony has managed to overhaul its flagship headphones in all the right ways that keep the 1000X line atop our best headphones list.
