Sadly, Sony never made good on their promise to include BT mic support on consoles for gaming and other devices. I leave my computer with them on to go into the kitchen for a few minutes at a time without any cut outs whatsoever, which surprised me but works consistently.Halfway through a rewatch of Guardians of the Galaxy, I was tugging the headphones away from my ears to keep the cans from pressing too painfully.

While the MDR-XB950BT will win no points for style, the headphones are a dream when it comes to control. The MDR-XB950 functions as a set of wireless headphones but also comes equipped with a cable for a wired connection. The bass is so massively boosted that one must either leave the rest of the frequency spectrum hushed or deal with truly skull-rattling bass impact.

I do have other BT headphones, the Beats Wireless and the Motorola S9 and I don’t have this issue with either BT audio source or wireless interference with the devices around.A lot of headphones are wireless nowadays, but few do the bass boosting bit as thumpingly well as Sony's MDR-XB950BT. I was wondering if you’ve stacked these up against the MDR-1RBT and if so, do you think it would be worth shelling out the extra cash, provided I was looking for the best BT headphones in the mid-end tier?
