Our Verdict

Sennheiser PXC 550 Wireless

Sennheiser PXC 550-II Wireless

The Sennheiser PXC 550-II Wireless are a minor upgrade over the Sennheiser PXC 550 Wireless. They have much better ANC performance and an easier-to-use control scheme. Other than that, they both look almost identical, have the same features, and have very similar sound profiles.
