But the Sony 1000X offer superior noise cancellation and the Ambient sound settings is pretty neat. But which should you get? The Sony XB950N1 or the Sony MDR-1000X? Watch this video to find out!

I have owned these two. The MDR 1000x would be flawless if they featured the xtra bass. The noise cancellation is Awesome. I sold them 3 days after i bought tho because i was not really happy with the bass. Now i own the xb950n1.

Try tke newer 1000x. You can customize the bass. Not sure if it'll be like the 950s but it'll increase the bass.
I just got the bose qc35 ii which is a competitor to 1000x and I returned them after 1 day. The bass is just to weak. When I turned the volume up to hear more bass the disc just killed my ears.
Sony MDR-1000x has more elevated bass than reference sound. Bose has more kinda reference level bass. If you think MDR-1000x is lacking bass, you are liking artificial sound. Nothing wrong with that, people can like what ever they want.
I like the bass on the N1
Love the XB950s - i have them along with many other headphones (BoseQC35, Beats Pro, Harmon Kardon...) I always use the Sony XBs. the bass is insane and addictive. Battery life is also amazing.
Just bought the N1s and they are furious! Bass is bone rattling. And for 130...they are a steal.
Stephen Gunnoe I’m waiting to score them for $80 this black friday
Are they still in good condition?
I owned a pair of the Sony MDR-XB950N1’s and the only thing I’ll say is down the long haul the frame isn’t as sturdy. Mine ended up breaking do to all the folding and compacting them places. But they lasted as far as quality in sound goes. I know headphones, and one thing for sure is the “Bass” was just that. Straight BASS bangin and enough to hear the lyrics clearly. It sounds like you’re in a car with a bass system in there. But they’re only headphones that’s the crazy part. Idk about those “1000’s” headphones, I’m looking for a replacement pair for the one I broke from usage. I also like how you can turn the “Bass effect” on or off, including the noise cancellation feature. You can also Bluetooth the headphones just by swiping your turned off headphones by your phone. They’ll Bluetooth and turn on at the same time. I miss those headphones. I bought mine from Best Buy for like $250-ish with tax. If I can find headphones with harder Bass than the 950’s point me to it
QUICK! Where is that shirt from??
Despicable me? Not really sure, just a guess.

The Vindicators!
Ive read a lot of positive reviews for N1 ans i went ahead to buy them today from US cant wait to get my hands and ears on it.
dude im getting the 1000x today
Brian Garcia don't, the headband cracks, that's the reason why I don't wanna get them.
MrNotSo Pink I got the 950n1 2 months ago and it is very durable
I’ve had Sony mdr1000x for like a year. No problems with durability. Bass is little higher than reference sound, but not annoyingly loud. Noise cancellation excellent. I don’t almost hear cars on a highway. I personally choose these over bose and sennheiser highend bt cans for sound quality and still am convinced it was the right decision.
@@fmango that you not him. I hate the theory that one day your headphone will crack but that day never came for me.... I hate these people it broke on you just get a new one.
I had Skullcandy crusher wireless 3 years if it break then my fault but It never break crack.
Sony xb950n1 2 year never a crack
My latest headphone now is Anker soundcore q30 7 months
Will I sold old one cause they lack on sound and bass.
Great review!
Any electronic component in generally saying the more expensive price the more great quality
I have the N1 and I don’t like how they press against my ears. Do you know if there is and option to change the ear cups to cover the ears like the 1000 ?
I bought XB950N1 because they are cheaper (2x) and has xtra bass. NC is better in MDR1000x, but Its creazy to spend a lot o money only for NC.
Piter Admski do u use an amp for ur headphones?
To me the 950 are great for working out but as primary headphones the sound is too veiled in the mids.
But yes look for a sale as the video says. At $250 these are priced too high., at the $125 I found them out they are a great bargain.
Just picked up the 1000X2 for home use. So far very impressed.
Anyone tried the Audio Technica 7BT. I was very impressed with the clear sound but no noise cancelling, a very iffy BT connection in the park, a proprietary cable and awkward controls drove me to the Sony 1000 X2. I think I'll be as pleased with the sound.
Yeah. They've been going for like $120 as of late if I remember correctly
Well... Noise canceling- mdr1000 95% sounds. XB950 - 60%. Checking this right now and...wow... those MDR1000 easily beats Bose35 at all, amazing.
But there is something.... CABIN PREASURE-- its very bad :( Its almost crush as hard as it was by Bose25. On XB950 this preasure almost not exitsing, it makes this headphones amazing NC to pain relation. Now I am learning how to focus and get used to this pain on MDR1000....
I have the XB950BT and they still sound great after 2 years, so ill stick with them as the N1's don't feel like much of an upgrade.
I decided to upgrade after my 950s broke. They are pretty durable after 3-4 falls from about 6ft, I didn,t drop it intentionally though.
the b1 upgrade is significantly better in sound quality
Quality beef steak
Nice review mate!
Just exactly the video i needed
I love my n1s alot. The bass is really nice and the sound is very clear.
The XB950N1’s sound better but I like the look of the Xm’s better.. I own the XB950N1’s bcuz I’m DEFINITELY into bass
Excellent Review!
can you use either of these at the gym?
Which is the best the n1, mdr 100ABN or skullcandy crusher
Hey, does the MDR-1000x works with the same app? If no what's the app
the 1000X doesn't work with sony's headphones app, but the new 1000XM2 does.
GYMCADDY -_- I need more bass on the 1000x. Do you know how to EQ? Android phone
Should i get the mdr 100x or ath m50x? Im looking for like value and noise quality.
Vincent Ma i think you should not go for the m50x headphones
Vincent Ma m50s are good but the m40s are better and about 50 bucks cheaper
I got the n1’s they are great apart from the crap plastic they use to cross over the band and speaker both sides are broken 😭
Stop lying
Would anyone rather get the xb950n1 or made 100abn(h.ear)?
Ive seen a couple of reviews and I like how you point out details that I need to make a good decision. Good on you mate! I am about to buy one of these bad boys. I would like to know if certain music apps (like Poweramp) with equalizers can help raise the bass on the 1000X to satisfy me enough to forego the X950. Ive listened to a wired demo in-store and wasnt satisfied. But maybe because it wasnt my player, my settings and my music. And does the X950 look really stupid in public?
is it worth upgrading to n1 i have 1000x
Skull candy make a headphone that's so Base heavy it vibrates like hell. Saw it for sale for 175 but forgot the name
skull candy crusher?
Is there any different between Sony 950 b1 and n1?
Just noise cancel
NOooOO I missed tHE 50 % OFF

Kajpingvin 2 no problem g
Xb950n1 break so fast I already bought 2 in the past two years
had mine for 2 years still in perfect condition
hi how a bout the n1 and m2
plz dont punch me
does the headphones comes with the stand shown?
No
1000x is very accurate
as it messes up
The best headphones for me are sony 1rbt
So, I have a question thanks to you. Your other video states that the Bose 35's are like having the Sony 950n1's set on a bass level of - 2 I think. My killer question is where do the mdr 1000x compare on the 950 bass level?
Michael Byrd no
No? It's cool, grabbed a pair of 950n1's that got priced wrong. Fryes for $130 out the door. Amazon sells some replacement ear pads I got and has slightly more of an ear opening...
*Sony XB950N1 FOR THE WIN*
No
Overated headphone
@@mollies13 No other headphone matches Sony XB950N1 when you are talking bass.
@@chialor1945 is that all you own?
the bass is overrated...
It's loud bass not those pure clean natural kick bass you get, though the sound is real clear and good but I still don't like it.
It's overrated cause alot of Meka people like it hype about it that's it sound better then other headphone when you can get cheap 100 dollar headphone that just sound already good.
I prefer you to try Sony xb550ap wired 30mm that's is a better headphone.
I use to own Sony xb950n1 sold it cause hate it.
Cons
sound rubbish but it's clear.
Bass is loud not pure clean kicking.
NC is mild not as good as Anker NC.
It make you look ugly.
It need to charge 7 hours.
Clamp force will hurt your head.
Price is overprice for 250.
@@mollies13 I sell headphones for a living lol
i prefer 1000x
Bang,Jodi Haryanto.
Jauh mantep,paten,keren,puas XB950B1 yang itam, headband stainless keliatan,ada list merahnya bikin keren.
Aku punya.
Harga lebih murah
Jodi Haryanto, jauhhhh lebih murah lagi
xb950N1 or xb950B1.. bass all teh way and they r loud
I go for XB950N1 all the way because noise cancelling the bass is actually better Sony xb950bt they freaking break and no more expensive they are still $179 where if Sony xb950n1 are $79 oh and a sound better.
The n1 at way to big
1000x
Ugly design
Like your frog face 😂😂 😂
I love the way everyone mentions EDM as the primary bass heavy music style even though it's one of the shittiest styles of music...
No one ever mentions house though...
People group House as a style of EDM, much like glitch hop, DnB, or Trap.
lol get out of your own ass houseboy

Lol! Arse*
Shite, that one's on me, sorry bout it mate!

Seriously guys,, im out of topic. But XB950B1 black, is a top on style and sounds the same as N1. Noise cancel is useless for me,and most of people dont need it.
Stainless headband on XB950B1 is visible and no paint on it,swivle color is black ink-like,so theres like blueish color wich is very cool appearance under the sun/outdoor.and with metalic red strip on it. Wow!! And its much cheaper!!!!
n1 got the app support and n1s always go on sale, so if you get the b1s you got a bad deal
I had both. The b1’s distorted when the bass was turned up and somehow the n1’s stayed clear. Not sure if they used a different driver or something but there was a different
:o
Sees price of 1000x in the Netherlands. Google's how to make 400 euros in 1 month
Sony sucks man
How did u like it
