My mother always told me that two heads are better than the price of chips. I really wish I understood Chinese better so I can translate her wisdom properly. To celebrate the wisdom of putting two heads together we are offering two headphones for the unbelievable price of $690!

We will place one set of headphones in a smaller delivery box and combine that with another set of headphones in a bigger box. Now if you find another Ozbargainer to share your order, you can re-send the smaller delivery box to the other person.

We reserve the right to give priority to Ozbargainers that are sharing their order.

So let's see the spirit of sharing and cooperation between Ozbargainers.

And for a What HiFi review of these headphones, please click here

Please note: Goods will leave our warehouse on Tuesday.

Urgh, forgot to add, official Aussie stock with TRS tax invoice.

    That’s a damn good deal for $345 each if you find someone to share! Even better than the current Amex Deal

      The Sony Center shop was doing them for around $350 last week on special (yes the v2) when I was in there looking, didn't buy though, should have but no money!….. So if you want just one pair, go hit them up!

        What are the delivery time frames like @sm007h?

        • Employeesm007h @ Crazy Or What on 14/12/2017 - 16:14

          I am really sorry but these are the last call out for delivery by courier companies so ETA are not going to be reliable. Non-Christmas period, it is usually 1 - 2 business days to Melbourne.

        • J4Jayden on 14/12/2017 - 16:15

          @sm007h: Sounds alright. Do you use Auspost?

        • Employeesm007h @ Crazy Or What on 14/12/2017 - 16:16

        • J4Jayden on 14/12/2017 - 16:17

          @sm007h: WHat I am looking at here is basically a delivery before Christmas. SO that's like a week from now. What are your thoughts on that? I understand it's not under your control but do you think it could make here to the Melbourne CBD before Christmas?

      I'll be down with sharing the price with you? I work in Kew so can meet you in CBD if possible? Also OP is there warranty on this, as the old version were very prone to cracking.

        It is official stock, so you will get warranty direct from Sony Australia or from us.

        • lostn on 14/12/2017 - 16:52

          Will he need to provide an invoice when claiming warranty? Because only the original purchaser is going to have that..

          @lostn: you'll be fine with a copy of the invoice. Everything is tracked by serial numbers anyways. As we send a digital invoice, both of you can have a copy.

      • J4Jayden on 14/12/2017 - 16:15

      • J4Jayden on 14/12/2017 - 16:52

        I am pretty sure we can copy the receipt and use it. It's Aussie stock so a copy of receipt is all you need.

          @lostn: If that was the case then giving anything as a gift would be difficult for warranty, as would moving house.

          @Fybre: A gift is free. This arrangement is not. If I couldn't claim warranty on a gift, I still don't lose anything. This is something you pay for.

          Moving house does not come with a name change. You are still you, and you can inform Sony that you changed your address. Could I inform them that you changed your address to mine?

  • J4Jayden on 14/12/2017 - 16:25

    Come on Melbourne people, I am keen on getting one of these. I have a black/grey unit already and they are way better than Bose ones. ANyone for a pair? They will make a great Christmas present so let's collude…

    • ONEMariachi on 15/12/2017 - 00:08

      It's actually ridiculous how much bettter than the Bose QC35s they are. I had the original 1000x, best sound and best noise cancelling ever. But the headband cracked after 2 months, so I swapped them at Jb for the Bose. I literally want to go back to the Sonys though as there is just no comparison :(

      • J4Jayden on 15/12/2017 - 07:43

        Mate the MX2 quality is at bar with Bose if not better. Won't crack. I actually did a YouTube review and that's from a Bose fan boy point of view. NC is in matchable and those lows and miss tho…

    Cheaper than refurb! Great deal. It's getting kind of late in the day, OP. How quickly can you ship? Pick-up an option or are you drop-shipping?

    I'm Sydney CBD based.

    PSST - anyone else in Sydney really keen to grab a pair of these? I travel on Tuesday morning.

      I am.

      • [Deactivated] on 14/12/2017 - 18:11

        I've messaged the OP with a query. If it seems he/she can guarantee delivery on Monday (or allow me to pick up on Monday from somewhere in Sydney) are you OK to meet and collect the other unit?

      • [Deactivated] on 14/12/2017 - 21:56

        Pulled the trigger.

        AMAZING service from the OP.

        Order processed and friendly, personalised text message received within 5mins.

        • SimpleRoger on 15/12/2017 - 00:07

        • [Deactivated] on 15/12/2017 - 12:58

          @SimpleRoger: Purchased two - one for me and one for @albert0pia

    • [Deactivated] on 16/12/2017 - 09:48

      Closing this out:

      1. This is a genuine deal. Glad I took a punt and proceeded with the purchase.
      2. I now have my headphones and @albert0pia has his via clandestine meeting in a Strathfield Car Radios carpark (top bloke, BTW :-)
      3. The OP @sm007h (Phil) gets customer service and the value of good communication. I wouldn't think twice about buying from C.O.W again.
      4. The items are definitely Sony AU sourced items (per shipping label on outside of the master carton)
      5. You will receive a compliant tax invoice for warranty and TRS purposes.

      Important note:
      The GST payable "Product" listed on the tax invoice for this particular deal is "Two Units of Sony WH-1000XM2 Gold" with the Quantity listed as "1". For a hassle-free TRS transaction at the airport, I would definitely present BOTH PAIRS. The second unit from my purchase is already with its new owner (hello, Albert!) and I won't be bothering with TRS next week when I fly. Still a FANTASTIC deal.

      • Employeesm007h @ Crazy Or What on 16/12/2017 - 15:31

        Hmm i hadnt thought about the automated invoice system. If you want, i can create a manual invoice for 1 set of headphones. Let me know

          hi yes! I bought a pair of these headsets sharing with another person, but because it's the other person that bought it, the invoice is under their name.

    I've been going back and forth between these and the Sennheiser PXC550, was leaning towards the Sennheiser but this is tempting me the other way now.

    • albert0pia on 14/12/2017 - 17:07

      I have the PXC 550. The touch controls, while a very handy feature, can be annoying sometimes. Phantom touches are just one of the issues I face on a daily basis. And just recently, it's started to act funky with my phone when I'm using it to make and receive calls.

      • Erkel on 14/12/2017 - 20:04

        These Sony ones have touch controls too. It also has atmospheric pressure sensor so it can adjust for comfort according to external pressure - VERY useful on flights. Plus the Sony supports LDAC, which is a true high def audio format (more than aptX HD), but you will need a supported Sony device to utilise the high res audio.

        • ONEMariachi on 15/12/2017 - 00:09

          Can vouch for the Sony touch controls as being excellent.

    Been using these headphones for almost 2 months now. Here is why this is hands down my favourite bluetooth NC headphones of all competitors:

    • LDAC support. Higher resolution audio than aptX HD, LDAC is a true high definition audio format. If you have a Sony device with LDAC support, you'll have access to the best quality audio in bluetooth headphones. I'm currently using mine with a XZ Premium.

    • Built-in atmospheric pressure sensor. It can detect exterior pressure and adjust for comfort accordingly. Very useful on flights when altitudes change, the headphones remain comfortable to wear and listen to unlike other brands. BIG plus for people who fly frequently like me.

    • Touch controls with Google Assistant. Whilst other brands like to advertise Google Assistant as a feature, the Sony WH-100XM2 has it as well. Just hold the play/pause touch part of the headphone and it'll activate Google Assistant.

    • No need to take off the headphones to have a conversation, just put your whole hand over the right headphone and it'll automatically disable NC and lower audio volume.

    • These headphones can even detect if you're walking/standing and automatically adjust for noise cancelling accordingly. If you're walking it can let a bit of ambient sound in so you can hear surrounding cars. Hell it can even detect if you're wearing glasses and adjust for that too!

    Easily the best bluetooth NC headphone of 2017, plenty of reviews will confirm that too.

    • LukeSmith on 14/12/2017 - 21:57

      Agree with all of the above - they sound brilliant and the NC is significantly better than the Sennheiser PXC 550s, but the Sonys suck for phone calls. People on the other end can hardly hear me. The PXC 550 in contrast are as good as any dedicated call center headset I've ever used for phone calls.

      There are quite a few reviewers that think the Sony outperforms the Bose headphones, but on Ozbargain, our site crashed when we had Bose in the deal.

      • good grape on 14/12/2017 - 22:53

        sounds like it's time for another bose deal? :)

      • xjcs88 on 15/12/2017 - 09:44

        I have both and I think sony rivals the NC level and absolutely better in sound quality.

        IMHO, it's only because sony is not a popular brand in Australia.

    • lostn on 14/12/2017 - 22:41

      LDAC support. Higher resolution audio than aptX HD, LDAC is a true high definition audio format. If you have a Sony device with LDAC support, you'll have access to the best quality audio in bluetooth headphones. I'm currently using mine with a XZ Premium.

      Can you describe what this "hi def" audio sounds like? Is it a Sony proprietory format? Those never go well, especially when Sony tries them. If there's an open format, I assume it will replace Sony's. I can't even count how many proprietory Sony formats have failed.

      • Erkel on 15/12/2017 - 03:50

        Yes it is a Sony proprietory audio format. It streams audio at 990kbps compared to aptX at 576kbps, so the difference in quality is noticeable. Coupled with Sony's DSEE HX upscaling in newer models you can get better audio quality even from lower bitrate mp3s. The headphones support other formats too, but it is nice to have the option for high def bluetooth audio.

  • imket on 14/12/2017 - 21:15

    i really wish these and QC35 would have usb - c.

  • raybies on 14/12/2017 - 22:50

    Bose = comfort for longer; more information in the voice announcements.
    Sony = slightly better in every other dimension; even voice announcements have a more 3d, natural and sci-fy voice vs bose like a 90's computer voice.
