Celebrating a decade of Sony’s 1000X series, The Collexion introduces a premium, revealing sound and luxe materials, signalling a deliberate shift from traditional noise-cancelling earbuds.
Sony’s 1000X The Collexion is not trying to be a quiet update to the company’s flagship line. It is a far more deliberate statement piece, marking 10 years of Sony’s 1000X headphones with a premium build, a heavier focus on materials and a tuning approach that aims to pull apart a recording rather than wash it over the listener. In Man of Many’s review, that meant a headphone that was often startlingly revealing, but not always relaxing to hear. RTINGS also found the model excelled at blocking outside noise, while other reviews from TechRadar and What Hi-Fi? described it as a luxury take on Sony’s familiar formula rather than a simple spec bump.
