Wide sound stage for a closed back ANC headphone. Clarity and definition are superior to the other headphones I tested which are the Momentum 4s and the Cambridge Melomanias. The base is dynamic and full like mini thunder in your ears without sounding too warm, outstanding. The Sonos headphones are far superior to the other two headphones I tested, in fact I would add that I would not recommend the others over the Sonos at all. I know that's harsh since I'm not even going to list what makes the others inferior, but the difference will sound so clear, there's hardly much to say. I'll put it this way, I had to compare the Sonos with real audiophile headphones that have no features except quality drivers. Yes, the Sonos weren't better but I really spent the time to compare. For Gaming go with the Sonos over the other headphones because of it's wide sound stage it's much better at handling 7.1 virtual surround sound. The Sonos are way more comfortable than the other headphones because of how the earpads are designed to curve over your ear, not just sit flat on your ear like the others, while still covering all of your ear. It's an impressive design and just makes them feel great to wear. Also, these have magnetic earpads for easy removal unlike the others. The Senheisers do use touch controls if you like that. I found them useful but once you learn the controls of the Sonos it won't matter. There's a strange behavior with the ANC options with the Sonos when you disable ANC, the base drops below 50% of its power. However, I believe this is a feature when you don't want it to go on and off in certain areas where you need to external hearing. In addition, you can keep the setting at Adaptive which restores the base with a small open back effect. The third option for full ANC removes the open back effect. I also found the Sonos more stylish to the other two since hard edges is just how 99% of other headphones look. The headband also sits snug around your head without any weird parts that sticking out like you're in a studio when they simply don't perform that way. I know this part is subjective but I think some people would appreciate these design points. Overall, while probably more expensive than other wireless ANC headphones, these are just all around great and worth it over the others. Reviews have raved about the Sennheiser over these, I resoundingly disagree. Other observations are situational. For example, I found that these type of headphones did not need to replace my Airpod Pros when I would go for a walk or a quick hop to the corner store. The sounds of the airpods directly in your ear are just high quality sounding as regular headphones. However, if I had to go somewhere to work all day like at the office, the Sonos were hands down more comfortable in that situation. If you like to sleep with music headphones, these will be far more comfortable than the Airpods sitting in your ear. Last point is for gaming again. While the Sonos are far better for gaming than the other ones mentioned, they are still wireless ANC headphones meant for all kinds of scenarios. Dedicated headphones that will tether you to your gaming PC or if you want just audiophile headphones, those will probably offer more immersive experience in those situations.

I have a large head and these are good, and just a step down from the Bose QC ultra. However, the Bose feel cheap to me and they drop connections in a busy office neither of which the Sonos has a problem with. It’s definitely better in both those areas. They sound great and they look really, really good. My last video call someone specifically reached out and asked what I was using. From a sound quality perspective they are great. I find them better than the Sony XM five not quite as good as AirPod Max when it comes to transparency. However, the transparency mode is good. These are less hot on the ears than the Sony XM five but not as good as the AirPods Max. The battery life is excellent. I like the battery life better than the Bose QC ultra. Connectivity is good. I like to use it on my iPad and on a Microsoft surface laptop works excellent for those and my phone. It’s a game changer if you have a Sonos arc I love that feature. It allows me to watch TV late at night after my wife is gone to bed without bothering her happy wife happy life… I would buy it again, but if my head was a little bigger, I think I would pass. So if your head is larger than large and smaller, but not quite extra large, it’s a buy.

I was a little disappointed when I learned Sonos didn't try to differentiate its first over-the-ear headphones to the market, outside of pairing to another Sonos specific soundbar... The other concerning factor was the press it was getting especially with tech reviewers. As I searched and searched for good over-the-ears headphones, I considered this pair when it was discounted as it made it more palatable for purchase. I have tried the latest offerings from Sony, Bose and the likes. I didn't consider Apple since it looks like it would be fatiguing after a long flight for me. After receiving the the Sonos Ace headphones, the unboxing experience was pleasant. The packaging and details was typical Sonos flare. You get what you pay for. Now to the headphones. They are not very heavy, feels very premium to the touch. The best part imo, physical buttons! I am not a big fan of touch sensitive headphones having owned older on ears B&O where you can accidentally control it. I added the Ace to the app since I do own their speakers. It connected and updated the firmware after a few. The headphones are exactly what I am looking for in sound quality. I played different genre of music and to me it was very balanced and not very bass heavy (like Sony and Bose). It passed my test for audio quality and the amplification levels. The noise cancellation worked very well. I am not looking for the Bose level but it does the job of blocking unwanted excess from your listening. With the music playing and NC on you are pretty much in your own state of mind. As mentioned, I have tried quite a few but never kept them beyond my trial period due to performance and fit for my preference. For the high cost, even full price, this pair is worth it. Getting it at a discounted price sweetens the pot even more. I am keeping these as I have already decided they are coming with me on a future long flight. Got these in the white color and I am very pleased as most if not all my previous headphones were black. Highly recommend the Sonos Ace headphones if fit, performance and price meets your criteria. Sonos hit the marks for me this round. Can't wait to see the next release!

Der absolute Hammer!!!! Wir sind begeistert!

Este es mi primer par de audífonos de este rango de precio, así que no sabía muy bien qué esperar, pero se escuchan bastante bien, y aunque eso es lo más importante no es lo único que me ha gustado. El diseño me parece bastante bonito, fue uno de los puntos que me hizo ir por estos en vez de otros audífonos, son elegantes a la vez que sencillos, y la construcción es muy buena. Al menos la parte extensible de la diadema es metalica, lo que les da un toque más premium y más durabilidad. El estuche esta bien, solo que el material es propenso a acumular pelusas y polvo, y seguro sería algo difícil de limpiar si se ensuciara. Estos audífonos no se doblan, solo giran, así que es algo que quizá quieras tomar en cuenta. La bolsita con la que vienen no es muy buena, ya que no tiene Zipper, como pensé que sería, aunque tampoco es que use mucho los cables. A mi parecer, son muy cómodos los audífonos, la diadema esta bien acolchada, así que usándolos por varías horas no he sentido ninguna incomodidad. Sobre las funciones no tengo queja, aunque eso sería mejor que cada persona las viera de acuerdo a sus necesidades. El sensor de los audífonos es muy preciso, los botones funcionas y se sienten bien, la función de doble conexión no me dió ningun problema, era una transición inmediata de un dispositivo a otro, la cancelación de ruido funciona bien, por poner un ejemplo, mi cuarto esta a unos 4 metros de la cocina, y si usan la licuadora, con la cancelación del sonido no la escucho. He visto que hay mejor cancelación en otros audífonos, así que si te interesa mucho esa función quizá debas buscar otra opción. En cuanto a sonido, me han parecido muy equilibrado. El ecualizador de la app de Sonos es muy sencillo, pero el audio por defecto esta bien. No soy un experto en audio, pero creo que la calidad de sonido que tienen, junto con la calidad de construcción y que son audífonos muy cómodos y bonitos hacen que valgan la pena. En mi caso los compre en oferta a unos 7,500.

These headphones are the priciest I purchased so far and as someone who enjoys quality sounds when listening to music, I can confirm that the Sonos Ace checks the boxes for what I'm looking for. They look really nice, the noise cancelation works wonderfully well and they fit my big head! Some negatives that aren't really dealbreakers for me: - I find them a bit heavy - Wearing them after awhile starts hurting my ears, I just see it as a sign to not wear them for too long - The Sonos app being a pain - Pairing the headset to my phone went smoothly but the app had a bit of a hard time detecting my headset at first, which was annoying but I trust the company will improve it

Intentaré desglosar lo mejor posible los distintos apartados que considero adecuados. Materiales: La calidad del producto es esperable acorde a su precio (el plástico, metal y almohadillas). Cancelación de ruido: De manera pasiva la considero buena, sin embargo, al activarla es otro mundo. Aplicación: Una basura, muchos problemas con la cuenta, los servicios y al inicio incluso temas para encontrar los audífonos (tuve que irme a los ajustes bluetooth del celular para conectarlos desde ahí). En la página de Sonos hay muchas quejas de la aplicación. Sonido: Aclaro, no soy un audiofilo, sin embargo considero que se disfrutan mucho los medios con estos audífonos, podría decirse que a mi perspectiva tienen un sonido neutro, pero bueno. Batería: Con una sola carga en promedio me ha durado unas dos semanas sin uso excesivo al día. Llevo casi 3 meses con ellos y solo los he tenido que cargar unas 3 - 4 veces, generalmente con el control de ruido desactivado o en modo consciente. Comodidad: El peso de los audífonos no es problema al usarlos por varias horas, incluso estos no molestan en la parte superior de la cabeza ni alrededor de las orejas. En general se podría decir que: Pros: Son audífonos comerciales, cómodos, con buena construcción y materiales, con adecuada duración de batería y una considerable buena cancelación de ruido. En general uso Apple Music, suena bastante bien el tema de Dolby Atmos. Son una súper recomendación, sobre todo si los pueden conseguir en descuento. Contras: La aplicación. Actualización: Tenía problemas con “Pausar la música al quitarse los audífonos”, sin embargo, ya funciona siempre.

The Bose 45 are excellent but the Sonos Ace takes it another level well worth the difference in cost and the tv swap feature which is now available on the Ray, Beam 1 and 2 is even more immersive. Sound, noise canceling, Fit, comfort, finish and control functions are top notch. Whether using bluetooth to listen to your tv/music or using the tv swap feature, the sound is premium. 30 hour bluetooth battery life and around 6 hours tv/swap wi fi battery life. The source content will automatically pause when you take the Headphones off and resume when you put them back on. Tv swap now works with both apple/android compatible devices.
