The all mighty sony’s wh 1000 xm6 literally used for 5 times. Im basically selling it because i realized i will switch to analog headphones. And this does not mean that they are not wonderful to me. I
At €300, this Sony WH-1000XM5 is significantly overpriced compared to the typical used market, where the median asking price is €155 and the 75th percentile caps at €179 based on 80 recent EUR listings. New units still hover around €320–€340, so paying €300 for a used set offers no real savings and sits well above the ambitious €179 threshold. This is not a bargain; it’s a poor value unless the condition is pristine and includes full accessories.
The WH-1000XM5 remains a top-tier choice for its exceptional noise cancellation, 30-hour battery life, and comfortable fit, making it a worthwhile buy at fair prices. However, at €300, you’re barely saving over new while risking unknown wear. Only consider this if it’s original-owner, includes the case and cable, and shows no signs of pad degradation or hinge stress—otherwise, wait for listings near €155–€165.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Sony emerged from the ruins of post-World War II Japan, founded on May 7, 1946, by Masaru Ibuka and Akio Morita as Tokyo Tsushin Kogyo K.K. in Tokyo's Nihonbashi district. Starting with radio repairs and Japan's first magnetic tape recorder, the duo secured transistor licensing from Bell Labs, pioneering the TR-55 transistor radio in 1955. Renamed Sony Corporation in 1958—from the Latin "sonus" for sound—the brand symbolized Japan's ascent from cheap imitations to innovative leadership, fueled by Ibuka's engineering prowess and Morita's global marketing vision.
Sony's hi-fi legacy spans headphones, amplifiers, speakers, turntables, and DACs, alongside landmark formats like the Compact Disc in 1982 and Blu-ray. Iconic products include the Walkman for portable audio revolution and Trinitron televisions, blending consumer accessibility with cutting-edge tech. Today, offerings like the Signature Series headphones and ES amplifiers target discerning listeners seeking refined soundstaging and dynamic range.
Positioned as a mid-to-high-end powerhouse, Sony commands respect among knowledgeable buyers for blending mass-market reliability with premium performance, outpacing many pure audiophile brands in innovation and value. Far from vintage relic or niche boutique, it dominates with forward-thinking engineering, holding strong market share in headphones and streaming ecosystems.
