The XM5 is now a last-generation model with the newer XM6 available, but that does not make this timing unattractive. At €135, this is below the €145 25th-percentile mark from 67 comparable listings, making it a genuine bargain rather than merely a fair price.
The XM5 remains an excellent travel and everyday headphone: class-leading noise cancellation, strong call quality, comfortable long-session wear, multipoint Bluetooth, and roughly 30 hours of battery with ANC enabled. Excellent condition at this price is particularly appealing, assuming the charging cable and hard case are included. The main compromise versus the newer generation is portability—the XM5’s earcups do not fold inward—but for €135, that is an easy trade if compact packing is not essential.
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.
