I must say, you do know headphones. Any chance you know if the JBL- Everest 300 Bluetooth Headset is comparable? Their Yurbuds (now discontinued) were some of the best headphones. Not looking to spend $400 though the Sony ones are great. The volume adjustment was very difficult to control; plus the fact I lean to my left when lying down to watch TV can also become a problem.I'd recommend the BOse QC35 or the Sony MDR-1000X..similar prices. Bose a bit better for noise cancellation/ease of controls while Sony have a bit better sound but the touch controls can be a bit finicky.
Thanks!
