Looking for an European alternative to Sony WH-1000XM6, similar price and performance. I’ve found these candidates:
- Sennheiser HDB 630 (expensive and no need for bundled USB transceiver)
- Sennheiser Momentum 4 (cheap, but are they “dated”)
- Valco VMK 25.2 ANC (very few reviews available so unsure about performance)
- DALI IO-8 (expensive)
Any other suggestions or comments to the headphones above?


What’s wrong with Sony being Japanese, other than being one of the greatest brands in history?
