Sony WH-1000XM6 Noise Cancelling Headphones
Twelve microphones and the best cancellation on the market. The wishlist item he will not buy himself.
Our rating
4.7 out of 5
The gap to the XM5 is small on an actual flight, though twelve microphones do give the best cancellation currently available. This is the wishlist item he will not buy himself. Four hundred dollars, and they do not fold as flat as the Bose.
