>WH-1000XM4s developed an issue where the NC has a feedback loop that sends a deafening shriek

Interesting. I have the original first gen WH-1000XM1s from 2006 and keep wanting to upgrade them to get the more advance NC and USB-C but they haven't broken down yet and they have no issues whatsoever, while the modern ones seem plagued with various issues.

I had XM2s that still work technically but have been quite abused so the hardware is falling apart. The bump in NC quality between XM2 and XM4 was pretty astounding
