hey everyone Jimmy with Jim's review room testing a bunch of headphones over the years I've been pretty fun of these Wireless active noise-cancelling headphones now they don't get rid of everything around you but headphones with a and C usually does a great job at blocking most of the outside world for you so here's my list of the best anc headphones that I've personally tested right here on this channel I'll place my links in the video description below click on my links and they'll give you the most updated prices in real time now first up the pair of Z 2.0 and 3 models I really love how these look not only does the minimalist design looks unique but you can feel the quality materials use the very smooth polished metal to the leather it just absolutely feels great in the hands but the biggest reason why their Atmos list ear and although parent does have them retail for $300 I've always seen them on sale for around 200 making these the cheapest on this list now the noise cancelling is close to the boast QC 35 s which is phenomenal you do have the option through the app to adjust or turn off the noise canceling altogether and then there's other options like sound profiles and NFC the audio performance is very good in my opinion offering a well rounded sound good enough for most generals to be enjoyed but the battery life though in Wireless mode is a bit low though at just seven hours now long the negatives here turns into a positive here the zigs do have interchangeable batteries so having a spare battery is ideal here if the better ever goes bad maybe outside of warranty you can always replace them now last regarding comfort they feel great but in hindsight and after some time with them they do tend to slip off the head here if I do lean over now if you're just sitting at the desk listening these zieks works perfectly fine again the link will be in the video description below for updated pricing now moving to number 4 these are my oldest and have been my favorite for some time here these are the Sennheiser wireless momentum 2.0 they offer the best bass boosted audio signatures perfect for pop hip-hop and EDM the wireless Momentum's offers very loud performance amazing better life at over 22 hours of use and a timeless design now active noise-cancelling cannot be turned off though with these but after testing some newer headphones lately many other headphones now perform better at active noise-cancelling than these wireless momentum they do lickin more sound and others is what I'm trying to say basically the last regarding comfort they feel great for extended play super light again and overall very durable the retail price on these are a crazy four hundred and fifty dollars to $500 from Sennheiser's websites but again my link has them for three hundred and forty nine at a time I uploaded this video now number three it's a more recent model it's also from Sennheiser this is the PX c5 50s that specifically made for travelers it's super lightweight very comfortable to wear as well and the features offered are one of the best now you have touch controls on the side and they are much more responsive than the parent Z's you do have the ability to turn off the active noise-cancelling feature if you choose to do so you can also place these on standby if you fold the ear cups inwards which is really unique now one very handy feature if you lift off either ear cup or take the headphones off altogether the headphones pauses your music and will resume once again once you put your ear cups or your headphones back on your head now the active noise-cancelling works very well here it's almost as good again as the boys QC 35 but again there's two other headphones after this one here that does a better job now in regards to audio characteristics it's very easy to listen to a balanced or flat sound signature with a lot of quality here and the pxc 550 s can be tuned with Sennheiser's F these retail for 399 dollars now number two and this was my number one pair for a and C headphones for quite some time here it almost ties with first place so I'll be comparing and mentioning this model a lot here on out there the bose qc25 is the most comfortable out there on the list very lightweight very durable and the audio quality sounds phenomenal the despite it not having some audio certifications like apdex and such they still sounded as good as any of the other headphones mentioned so far if not better now although the QC 35 offers a flat and natural sound signature it's clean and many would say a lot of those who critique these headphones say that they are accurate now Janos really do really shine here our instrumental classical definitely rock music pop and simply musicians with strong vocals now I still enjoy them very much with pop EDM and hip hop I think bass lovers or bass heads might need to have an equaliser to help out or they just have to look into other brands now the soundstage on these QC 35 s for a pair of active noise-cancelling headphones is one of the best in my opinion now the only errors I see consumers critiquing is there's no way to turn off the active noise-cancelling four times you don't want to block out the outside world and for some people who are more sensitive to ANC the most QC 35s do give that kind of like an airplane air cabin pressure feeling to your ears also know Bose has always have been a brand that offers the least amount of features for some reason but NFC is offered but there's no in-depth app to adjust audio there's no lifting of ear cups to pause your music there's no touch controls but then on the flip side again the most comfortable pair of headphones on this list here again audio signature is great from the factory battery life is one of the best on the market overall simply no gimmicks just a great pair of performing headphones and let me stress one more time here the most comfortable out of the bunch these are priced at $349 retail at the time this video now last but not least here number one on my list are the sony MDR 1000x if you want the bells and whistles here get this particular model these are Sony's flagship and active noise canceling headphones they're as comfortable as these Sennheiser PXE 550's but then your pants do slightly warm up they do warm up my ears here more than the Bose now from the factory in general they're a more balanced sound signature with a little more emphasis on bass and mids versus the Bose QC 35 now as stated in my verses video the high frequencies are a little recessed but with some slight tweaking with an equaliser these things sounds as good as the second place one on my list again they boast QC 35 now with that being said what makes this the top choice here is for 50 dollars more than the bose qc25 s again you get just an ever so slight better performance and active noise-cancelling it's not much but worth stating it does black out a little bit more noise again over the Bose model and every other pair of headphones on this list so far now like most other headphones you can turn off the noise canceling if you'd like there is an abundance of features also including sound profiles which can be switched and the headphones themselves is a little button on the side here another useful feature allows you to place your hand over the ear cup causing your music to stop and the microphones will actually amplify your surrounding so you can hear what is around you without fully taking off your headphones now touch sensitive controls are on the side and they are super responsive very similar to the PXE 550's battery life is still one the best in the industry at 22 hours of use and very last sony does offer audio processing such as the digital sound enhancement engine which takes traditional audio files on your phone mp3 for those very familiar with those everyone's familiar with those and up converts them to provide a higher quality audio experience then there's also L deck which is Sony's high resolution audio support offering the clearest audio performance that wireless headphones can have so in the end here the Saudis are not perfect either that's why I believe that both QC 35 comes up and comes in very close here but I believe these sony / provides a slightly better value for just fifty dollars more retail and you get all those features and the best in active noise-cancelling performance even if it's my mute if you go with bose or sony in the end you honestly can't go wrong with either just depends on you guys so let me know in the comment section below which one do you prefer which one is your favorite ear I'm sure I miss probably some other headphones on the market specifically the Beats Studios I just simply
