The Telegraph

(With SXFI on) It feels like it went from listening to someone in the next room to the wall coming down. They’re incredible, they make me feel giddy like a child.

Expert Reviews

I fired up one of my favourite Carlos Santana songs, “Africa Bamba” – and was shocked straight away. I’m used to hearing Santana’s guitar at the centre of a virtual soundstage but, through the SXFI Air, it sounded exactly as if he were playing in front of me. It’s a mind-blowing effect, unlike anything I’ve heard before.

Super sound quality.

    

A. Tan

An amazing product. Great for moviies and music. Great on youtube music videos especially. Tried it on some games and the effect was fantastic. Was also using it on flights and the earcups effectively blocked out almost 50% of the engine noise, and once the sxfi was turned on, the overall effect is as good as the noise canceling earphones I had previously. Will not trade this for another.
