If they sell for $170 new, where are they getting the $350 pricing from? Is that original msrp?
I prefer to base value of a deal off of what they sell for now, not what they originally sold for.

Huh, they support aptx low latency, which is a pretty rare feature (I don't believe the Bose or Sony headphones do). It's a useful feature if you're using these with video content so you don't get that weird delay between seeing someone's lips move and hearing the words. It's also pretty much a must have for gaming with Bluetooth headphones.

You'll probably need a separate Bluetooth transmitter to use it though. As far as I know, no phones, streaming sticks etc support the codec natively. In my case I use a little type C transmitter that's almost flush when inserted. It's designed for the Nintendo switch, but works with my phone, laptop and chromecast with Google TV (with a type c hub). It also allows 2 headphones to connect at the same time, but if they don't both support AptX LL then it's disabled on both while they're connected.

Right so per RTINGS.com:

Bose QC35 II
Weight: 0.52 lb
Clamping force: 0.69 lb

These Sennheiser PXC 550-II
Weight: 0.51 lb
Clamping force: 0.8 lb

Bose 700, which I sent back for being too uncomfortable as a QC35 II user
Weight: 0.58 lb
Clamping force: 1 lb

AirPods Max
Weight: 0.85 lb
Clamping Force: 1.2 lb

At this point I would not even consider the AirPods Max. That is 170% the weight and 150% the clamping force of these Sennheisers.

Hadn't heard of these, but decent review from Soundguys [soundguys.com]. Doesn't seem like an upgrade from my Bose QC II, but not a bad entry level option. Amazon sells new for ~$170.

These are excellent. I own them, and a few others that I've done side to side comparisons with. At $110, they're a great deal, and easily go toe to toe with the Sony XM3 that's also on special. Between the two, I prefer the sound on the Sennheiser.

I added these because the Sony XM3's are out of stock. If you missed those these are the next best option at this price

In for one. Thx OP. I was looking at these and the Sony XM line and these were right on par except much cheaper. Seems like a winner in this price point

These are FANTASTIC headphones. Great for traveling. The noise cancelling isn't as good as the Sony XM4s but it's DAMN good. This is a steal at 110.

Awesome deal on some cans that I've long had my eyes on.
Has anyone had experience with the eBay refurbishment?
For something that will be intimately connected to my body I'd rather know that the product will be as close to new as possible.

I have the original (not II), and they are fantastic. For $110, absolutely a steal.
