Abstract: Barely had the Bose QuietComfort 35 I reviewed last month been collected than this model from Sennheiser, its PXC 550 Wireless, arrived. The head-to-head competitors are very similar, both featuring Bluetooth wireless, both light and comfortable (the Senn...
Abstract: Looking around the business class cabins on any aeroplane, it's clear that for many travellers wanting traditional big-brand quality headphones , it has to be either Bose or Sennheiser. On one recent British Airways flight, I counted five Bose to four Sen...

Clear, accurate and detailed sound, Excellent Bluetooth implementation, Comfortable and well built
Some volume limits, Noise cancelling less effective used on its own, Quite Pricey
Having so recently felt that the Bose QC35 represents the best option for the long distance traveller, the Sennheiser throws a mild spanner in those works. The PXC-550 does the same things as the Bose and if you intend to board that long haul flight and l...
Pleasing transparency for the price, Top timing, Clear and dynamic sound, Smart, minimalist design, Effective noise-cancellation,
Slightly rich bass, In-house competition,
That's more of a statement than a criticism, though. While certainly rich, it errs just on the right side of overstated, and is careful not to slow rhythms or weigh down dynamics.Balance still favours the low-end through the wire, albeit there's a noticea...

Great sounding, On/off control well implemented, aptX connectivity.
Unresponsive touch controls, No battery notification, Noise cancellation could be better.
The Sennheiser PXC 550s manage to achieve that full-bodied Sennheiser sound we've come to expect, but some of their other features leave a little to be desired...
Rich, balanced, and detailed sound, DSP effects offer powerful bass when you want it, Sennheiser's best noise cancellation yet, Sleek, portable design, Automated controls
Awkward switch locations, Noise cancellation doesn't quite match Bose, Pricey
With impressive sound performance, a sleek and comfy design, and Sennheiser's best noise cancellation yet, the new PXC 550 are primed to be your next set of travel cans...
The Sennheiser PXC 550 Wireless is very comfortable, relatively lightweight over-ear wireless headphone that sounds very good and features impressive noise-cancellation technology. It has touch controls and delivers excellent performance as a headset. Goo
It's pricier than the Bose; while the sound quality is excellent for Bluetooth, it's lacking that little bit of extra sparkle and definition (Sennheiser's own Momentum II Wireless sounds better)
While it doesn't quite eclipse the less-expensive Bose, the Sennheiser PXC 550 Wireless headphone is comfortable and feature packed, and performs very well...
Abstract: Time for a showdown. Sennheiser PXC 550-II vs PXC 550. In terms of wireless sound quality, Sennheiser is running the game. Other companies may have them beat for comfort or noise cancellation, but the MOMENTUM 3 and MOMENTUM in-ears are still the best-sou...
