Sonos Ace

I was skeptical about the whole "obsessively crafted" marketing talk, but the tuning really is something else—I keep hearing tiny details in songs I've played a hundred times. The way they sit on my head is so balanced I forget they're there for hours at a time.

The noise cancellation is incredibly effective—I put them on in a noisy coffee shop and suddenly heard nothing but my music. The ear cushions are plush enough that I wore them for a three-hour flight without any discomfort.

The soundstage is so wide and clear that I caught details in songs I’ve heard a hundred times before. Wearing them for a few hours felt like the music was wrapping around me completely.
