Editorial note

The Sony XBA-4 headphones stand out for their exceptional sound quality, thanks to balanced drivers that provide a rich and dynamic reproduction, ideal for audiophiles. Their in-ear design ensures optimal sound immersion while guaranteeing prolonged comfort, although some users may experience discomfort after extended listening. Additionally, effective noise cancellation allows for full enjoyment of music without external distractions. However, the price of the Sony XBA-4 may be considered high compared to other similar models on the market, which could deter some buyers. The 1.2 m cable, while convenient, may prove too short for some users, thus limiting their freedom of movement. Furthermore, the lack of wireless connectivity could be a drawback for those who prefer Bluetooth headphones in an increasingly wireless world. Finally, while the lightweight 8 g design facilitates use, the durability of the materials may raise questions due to their thinness. In summary, the Sony XBA-4 headphones offer a quality audio experience, but their cost and certain design limitations may not suit all users.
