Get a whopping 34 per cent discount on these five-star wireless headphones from Sony

The recently released, and excellent, Sony WH-1000XM6 will cost you $450; but if you're looking for a great deal on some of the best wireless headphones, consider the WH-1000XM4 from Sony instead. Both are five-star beauties, but the older XM4s are now half the price of the latest model.

That means you can pick them up for only $228 at Amazon. In our review we say they deliver dynamic and detail-rich sound that could be described as a sonic masterclass. They also have a sensational sense of timing and are comfy to wear.

This is the complete package at an unbelievably tempting price. What are you waiting for?

Sony WH-1000XM4: was $348 now $228 at Amazon

After being superseded by the XM5s and now the XM6s, you might think these should be immediately dismissed. But the Sony WH-1000XM4 are still miles ahead of most of their rivals, and at this price, they are worth every penny. When we reviewed them, we were wowed by their sparkling sound and stellar construction. Winners then, winners now, winners until the very end.

If you were to ask us if there's a more entertaining pair of premium wireless headphones than the Sony WH-1000XM4, in all honesty, we would struggle to think of any. The WH-1000XM5 brings Sony's premium line further into the future, of course, with enhanced features and sensational levels of sonic clarity, but the former Award winners have such a marvellous feel for your music that it's hard to tire of their sound.

Some of our testing team still prefer the XM4 over almost all other cans, such is their stunning sonic prowess.

They are also incredibly easy headphones to live with. They fold away, so they're perfect for daily commuting, while their soft earpads and nicely judged clamping pressure only add to their on-the-go credentials.

You don't end up feeling short-changed on features either. A 30-hour battery life is a long way from a disgrace; the noise cancelling is excellent, the touch controls work nicely, and – this being a pair of Sony headphones – there's DSEE upscaling for cleaning up poor-quality audio files. What more could you want?

To us, the Sony WH-1000XM4 could be all the headphones you need at this level. Grab them at Amazon now.
