my mate had a pair of Bose quiet comforts 35 and they are amazing, cuts out all outside sound and sound quality is fantastic, been searching around and just found for 270.71 euros delivered on amazon spain so with a good no fee card its works out to about £238

OOS. Also regarding the MDR-1000X, they don't have multipoint. Possible deal breaker.

Just be aware that these are poor if outside with any sort of breeze. Got some last week and am returning them tomorrow. The problem is that the microphones on the outside are impacted by wind which the headphones try to compensate for which means that you hear a wind rushing noise when there shouldn't be anything. Great when on the train but when walking across town to work they are a pain in the backside, especially on quieter music. Google QC35 wind noise for more. I believe it also affects the Sony headphones as well. Gutted to be honest as the sound quality is fantastic let down by this one issue.

A bit of tape either side fixes this issue.

I nearly returned mine in the first week for this reason but I stuck with them. I'm glad I did as I'm very happy with mine. Not good for breezy days outside. I think you could maybe just use a cable instead on those days(?)

I have walked to work with these on everyday since november and unless the wind Is howling you wouldn't notice! And now you can adjust the anc to counter the few times the wind will affect them.

The most comfortable headphones I have ever tried on. I almost pulled the trigger on these but the fact I can't use the mic with my PC was the deal breaker. Really nice price regardless.

Bluetooth dongle should let you use the microphone surely? As long as you're on a more recent Windows version.

I didn't spend £280 on headphone to then have to put some tape on the microphones to fix an issue with them. I have some cheap Philips NC wireless headphone that I got through HUKD back in November for £40 that don't have this issue.

Don't get me wrong, I do love them and am gutted to be sending them back but I wanted wireless for a reason. I'm one of those people that once I'm aware of an issue I can't forget about it. I also find that they get a bit sweaty whereas my previous on ear phones were not so bad.
I have these. First time I tried them
On I wasn't overly impressed and was gonna return them but decided to keep em anyway. Love them now, If you're a daily train commuter these will change ur life. Best Buy of 2017 for me.

Don't know if the offer is still on but they were selling these at the Bose outlet in Portsmouth for £229 the other week. Factory refurbished and 2 year warranty.
