Has anyone here felt the same about the XM4 and XM5? (the buds, not the over ear set)

I went through a few of the XM4's because of the battery issues but I absolutely loved them. And importantly, the ANC was great!

When the XM5's came out I made the switch but have been very, very disappointed in the ANC. My 5's let in MUCH more ambiant noise than the 4's did. Even maxed out I can easily hear people talking 20 feet away from me or cars going down the road when the windows are open. I can tell its working as very loud noises get damped out fairly well, but lower volume ambiant noise goes right through. I use Comply foam tips so it's not an isolation issue.

How is the ANC on the 6's? Please tell me Sony undid whatever they messed up with the 5's.

Just got the email from them and had to order one since I was still on the wait list to join their program when it originally came out.

The left over stock doesn't require a subscription so anyone can grab a copy of it. Ships from the UK so the shipping is not the cheapest. This one and another I had my eye on for a while cost me 27 GBP ($36 USD) for shipping to the US.
