This helps the headphone decide how the feed-forward microphone should be used for noise-cancelling. This plays a series of noise as well as using the built-in barometer to measure ambient air pressure.

This can be activated by holding down the custom button (in default setting) or through the app in the sound section. You can slightly improve the noise-cancelling by using personal optimisation. When compared to the AirPods Max, the Sony seems to deal with lower frequencies better while AirPods Max cuts out a little more voice. However, once you start playing music the noise seems to just fade away. It definitely won’t cut out all the noise, if you wear it in a car or a train without music on you will still be able to hear higher frequency noise such as the wind and the rails. It cuts out potentially all sound that would interfere with music listening. The XM4’s noise-canceling is one of the best I’ve seen from over-ear headphones. This works really well as long as you’re only connecting to a single device (see the MultiPoint section below) The WH-1000XM4 works with the Sony Headphones Connect app which enables a lot of its smart features.

This is one of the reasons I consider the Sony over the AirPods Max, as someone who owns a portable DAC like the Fiio, having an option to passively drive the headphone is definitely a plus.ĭespite being much heavier, the AirPods Max is still slightly more comfortable thanks to its larger headband. Driving the unit with my Fiio BTR-5 (will do a review on it soon), instrument separation increased significantly and it sounds clearer too, despite using the same AAC codec from the same phone. For some reason, the unit will also automatically turn off when you unplug it. Noise Cancelling and Speak-to-Chat will still work in wired mode, but the touch controls will not. The XM4 can be driven through its 3.5mm port which allows you to use the unit with devices that do not support Bluetooth. From my experience using both Spotify Premium and Deezer HiFi, there’s only a marginal difference between having it on and off.

DSEE Extreme is supposed to use machine learning to upscale badly compressed music either from your music streaming service or the Bluetooth codec. I would like to take a moment to also mention DSEE Extreme which is Sony’s next iteration of DSEE HX found on the XM3s.
