MOMENTUM
The MOMENTUM series of headphones from Sennheiser is among the most well-known active noise canceling (ANC) headphones. The MOMENTUM 4 Wireless headphones are a great choice for ANC headphones. They have a good track record and a low cost.
The earcups have a fairly substantial amount of padding and are designed to fit comfortably over your ears. The top of the band, that wraps around your neck, is encased with soft leatherette. I found it comfortable to wear for a long time, and the band is flexible enough to accommodate glasses, which is a nice feature.
Contrary to other ANC headphones unlike other ANC headphones, unlike other ANC headphones, the MOMENTUM 4 Wireless' sound is balanced rather than overemphasizing bass or highs. This is a great thing since it offers a more balanced sound that is a better representation of speech and music. They do tend to boost lower frequencies however this is a feature of headphones made for commuters where outside noise can be a challenge to low-frequency speech and music.
Like other frontrunners in the ANC category like other top contenders in the ANC category, the MOMENTUM 4 Wireless noise reduction is good. It's not quite as good as the best ANC headphone s we tested however it's close. You can also defer projects by two clicks until the next quarter which makes them a great choice for school or work.
You can connect the MOMENTUM 4 Wireless to a device via Bluetooth, and you have the option of using SBC, AAC, aptX, or aptX HD codecs. The 3.5mm connector on the headphone can be used to listen to music sources without Bluetooth support.
The MOMENTUM Wireless has an array of microphones that allow users to make and receive calls. The microphone is decent however, it's not the best for conversations on the phone. The microphone is still better than the ones on most entry-level headphones.
