  • High value purchase at refurb pricing
For being a refurb, it looks like new. There was a slight scuff on the carrying case that I have yet to try to remedy. Mostly because I don't care. The sound is great to these old ears. I think the limiting factor is my source material. I have tried both bluetooth and corded connections and both sounded great. I was disappointed at having to create an account and installing a phone app. I just view it a corporations trying to create an extra revenue stream from gleaning my personal data. If one doesn't feel the need to update the firmware or just uses a corded connection, you could skip the app. I don't understand the need for the app. Higher end headphones and DAP shouldn't need an equalizer, or other sound shapers and effects. The corded connection is rated at 32 ohms which makes the product reasonably sensitive so my portable DAP doesn't need a high volume setting. After all these years the noise cancelling I don't need to crank up the volume. I don't know how cancellation is active and how much is passive but it is quite effective. Low volume delivers the clarity, detail, and presence I crave. I find the headset quite comfortable for my head and ears. I would recommend. ... show more

  • Renewed or brand new?
These showed up and seemed like they had never been used. I'm not convinced they were! They sound and work great. Noice cancelling works well. Very happy with the renewed quality so far.

  • Great headphone option depending on what you're looking for
I got these for $250 with amazon refurbished and I've had them for a year now and experienced no issues. For the most part they are great headphones, they have good sound quality and noise cancelling as well as a long battery life. I also enjoy that there is an app you can use to control the settings for them. That being said I definitely wouldn't go out and spend $300+ on them because they aren't anything amazing and still have their cons. For me i find them to not have the best fit and when being walking around or being active they tend to move around or fall off easily, so if you are needing gym or running headphones you might be better off with something else. Also, the touch controls are very sensitive and can be somewhat confusing + annoying since they make a sound effect when you touch the outside of the earphone (this tends to be an issue when lying down especially if you want to turn on your side). Overall I think most people would enjoy the quality of these compared to other over the ear headphones and I say they are worth it if you can get them for a good price. ... show more

  • One of the top Bluetooth headphone sets available for the price
This “B” (renewed) version of the Sony 1000/5’s is probably one of the best values for a top quality Bluetooth headphone currently available. It’s a no-frills presentation with the Sony “B” when it arrives. Brown Amazon box, zippered headphone case in a plastic bag, 90 day warranty info, the plug-in cord (yes, you can plug these in AND use them as Bluetooth phones!) and the power cord - see the photo. For a really in-depth review of these phones, refer to John Darko’s review of them on Darko Audio on the web. John’s review covers all the finer points in great detail. John’s video was recorded on 10/11/22 and compares the Sony WH-5000XM5’s to Bowers and Wilkins Px7 s2’s which are also $399 - the same price as the new Sony model. My take on the Sonys - - they fit well and are comfortable for a few hours - they can be used as a corded phone by leaving the power off and just plugging them in - the fold flat but they don’t fold up like the version 1-4 did. That’s not a big deal for me, I travel with ear buds, not over ear phones. - the app has a LOT of flexibility for adjusting the sound and system. - the controls work well on the right ear cup. Volume up and down, play/pause, track back or advance to name a few. - audio evaluations are inherently subjective. I have a pair of Meze 99’s Classics that I use daily as well. The Sony have great bass, the Meze phones do as well. The mid-range on the Meze seems more refined but I’m using the Ifi Zen Can amp tuned for the Meze 99’s so it’s not really a fair comparison. - not a mark or any visible defect anywhere on the “B” version that I bought. They look and sound brand new. For rhe $130 off off list for the “B” versus new, I don’t think you can get a better sound quality and app flexibility from a closed, over ear cordless phone for the price. Hope that helps! ... show more

  • Best over-ear
Best over-ear I've ever used. Even though is a renewed item it doesn't feel like it. The battery lasts for a really long time, and it charges super fast! Also the sound quality is next level, I'm hearing sounds in songs I was never able to catch before.

  • Solid purchase
Great set of headphones. I could just not commit to 450.00 for a new set of xm6 so went with the renewed xm5 and surprisingly happy about purchase. Got a wonderful set of headphones without the crazy price. Very comfortable on the ears and head. Noise reduction is so good that you can't even hear your own breathing. App is kinda awkward. Good purchase so far. Only time will tell. ... show more
