In absolute topstaat verkerende sony wh-1000xm5 over-ear koptelefoon! Uitgerust met award-winning active noise cancelling, topgeluid en een batterijduur tot 30 uur. Volledig gecontroleerd en 100% in o
A strong mainstream noise-cancelling pick, and the asking price sits right on the money. At €160, it’s essentially at the €158 median for recent used listings and only a touch above the €145 25th percentile, so this reads as fair rather than a bargain or an overreach.
What makes it worthwhile is the balance of comfort, top-tier ANC, and very easy daily use; these hold their appeal better than a lot of “premium” headphones do. If the pads, headband, and battery are healthy and the listing includes the case and cable, this is a sensible buy for someone who wants a proven all-rounder without paying new-stock pricing.

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.
