According to our headphones expert
With the Sennheiser PXC 550 Wireless, you can listen to your favorite music. Via Bluetooth, you can stream music wirelessly from your smartphone or tablet. There's no cable in the way and you have a lot of freedom of movement. Thanks to active noise canceling, ambient noise is muffled. The headphones last up to 30 hours, so you can listen to music continuously for hours on end. Thanks to the soft leather ear cushions and the ergonomic over-ear design, you can wear the headphones for a long time.

An excellent product, ideal for the office and during long flights. Even after hours, the headphones are still comfortable, unlike headphones with small ear cups.
Pairing with (two) devices works fine, I only notice that Spotify on the laptop often blocks after the headphones paused.

What struck me most about this device is the very nice sound, better than the QC35 from Bose. I also found the noise canceling, if the 550 is placed correctly on the head, better than the Bose! It's light and comfortable to wear, and the wipe control works flawlessly (start swiping right at the edge!). The Apt-X codex virtually guarantees CD quality. I would really call this an audiophile BT headset. The ear cups are a bit on the small side, but are excellent and meet the requirements. Your ears do touch the banner in front of the speakers, but that's not annoying. I was very pleased with the device, but unfortunately my ears are a bit too sensitive and started beeping, as with all other known BT headphones, and I had to return the PXC 550. Otherwise I would have kept it for sure!

Why did I purchase this?
Was this purchase worth the money?
I can keep it on my head for 8 hours a day without any irritation. The noise canceling is not flawless, but definitely worth it.
Where is the shoe then?
The music then sounds as if it is coming through a 2 Watt speaker and you will NOT get out of this mode! The manual says that pressing the mode button for 4 seconds is enough to get out of this mode, but outside of the standard 'Call Enhancement Off' message, the sound continues to be the same poor quality.
The only reason is to switch off the headphones and wait a while.
