Sony’s WF-1000XM3: impeccable sound and noise cancellation

It’s impossible to measure all that we hear. Perfect sound is what makes one feel content. For the umpteenth time the feeling punctuated my thoughts as one track of Alan Parsons Project’s Eye In The Sky faded into another. The bombastic instrumental opener Sirius makes way for the headphone-friendly title track, which in turn moves into the mid-tempo Children of the Moon. The balance between pop and progressive that APP aimed for could have easily got lost had the pair of earphones I was listening to the 1982 album on were mediocre. One of the best engineered albums of all-time deserves to be heard on well-engineered speakers. In my case, it’s Sony’s WF-1000XM3, a true wireless version of the company’s popular audio noise cancelling headphones.
