For comfort I felt QC 35 still wins over both. If Bose had just put 700 hardware and software in QC35 case that would be perfect for me.
Comfort: Bose 700. Dust filters are spacious and angled. They prevent your ear from touching the fabric as much.
Sound Quality pre-equalizer: Bose 700.
Sound Quality post-equalizer: XM3. Tuning the sound with Sony's app is a must. Afterwards, it sounds a lot better than the 700. The soundstage is vibrant and lively, especially in orchestral pieces. Really makes it feel like a live performance. Tuning down the bass was also a must because it's over-powered and muddy. 700 was still a nice full, low bodied sound but it sounds more like your songs are in a recording studio. I tried Bose's equalizer to bring back a lively quality to rival Sony, but I could never get it there.
Overall, I really did like the 700, but ultimately, had too sharp sibilants on some of the instruments being played in my songs. Also please note, I am a V shaped sound signature person. Funny I should say this after having to turn down the bass on the Sony's.
