In-Depth Review
The Sennheiser Momentum 4 is the headphone for people who care deeply about sound quality. While Sony and Bose compete on noise cancellation bragging rights, Sennheiser has built the best-sounding wireless headphones in the mainstream market.
The 42mm transducers are tuned with a flat, extended response that audiophiles immediately appreciate: accurate bass extension, transparent midrange, and detailed highs. The parametric EQ in the app lets you shape the sound precisely.
Noise cancellation is good — comparable to the Bose QC45 — though it trails the Sony XM5 and Bose Ultra. The 60-hour battery life is the longest of any premium ANC headphone.
