IS MOMENTUM 4 STILL WORTH BUYING TODAY? CAN IT STILL COMPETE WITH THE NEWLY RELEASED HEADPHONES THIS 2025 IN TERMS OF SOUND QUALITY?

I bought them a year and a half ago aprox, and dont ask why, but I also own Airpods Max, XM5, QC Ultra, Airpods Pro 2, XM4 and have tried regular QCs and Sonos Ace. My favorite sounding headphones have been the Airpods Max and the Momentum 4, specially with sound personalization, though, the Momentu

HDB 630 vs Bathys OG (vs PX8 S2)

I've owned these sets. The PX8 S2 is energetic out of the box; the recessed midrange, and boosted treble and low frequencies are how most consumer headphones are tuned, which is why some listeners will have issues with sibilance on certain sets. The PX8 S2 are especially strident; I prefer the PX7 S

Px7 S2e just the goat?

I think the PX7 S2e is currently the sweet spot in the B&W range. Picked mine up for £200 then other day. They are sublime. If your look carefully at reviews in conjunction with the frequency response of the different B&W headphones currently available, the PX7 S2e has the "best" FR of any of them i

P100 SE current state

I’ve owned many « high-end » bluetooth headphones over the last 2 or 3 years, including the Sennheiser Momentum 4, Bose QC Ultra Gen 1 and 2, B&W Px7 S2e, B&W Px7 S3, B&W Px8 S1 and S2, Beoplay H95, Focal Bathys, Sony XM5, and several others… Right now, the Cambridge Audio P100 SE offer by far the b

WTH Bang and Olufsen

Personally I don't know what the fuss is. I A/B tested wireless vs USB-C wired and couldn't tell the difference, so LDAC would just be placebo. And the H100 sound better and have better controls than my other headphones, like the B&W PX8. Also the iPhone won't do LDAC without a clunky USB dongle. So

PX8 S2 pictures

Oh come on B&W. What are you doing? The Px8 looked great already. Nice with slimmer earcups but why expose the cable. No reason other than us customers have to be very careful when we store that product away in a drawer or backpack without the case. It seems similar to if someone designed a remote c

px7 s3: Review after 1 month of regular use

I pretty much agree with your review. I also mostly listen to classical music, was in the Florida Philharmonic in the late 90s when I was in college and did years of music study that went through conducting. Have been in some orchestra performances and also in the audience, so know what the instrume

My take on PX8 S2 vs Focal Bathys MG, B&O H100, Dali IO-12 + EQ Fix!

Yeah, B&W seems to have that 'warm tuning' that results in muddled bass in music like Gojira and harder rock / metal. I've largely found the EQ settings I shared help with that. I loved both H100 and IO-12's but one is too expensive and the other too impractical. My wired Beyerdynamics DT990 Pro I u

Warm Stone PX8 S2 Color Comparison

H100 still sounds better. I tested the px8 s2 and am a b&w fan. But i was disappointed in the px8 s2. Expected more, still looking for cm9s2 on the ears. Maybe the px8 s3 can deliver.. untill then i am waiting

Share your experience using the Bose QC Ultra 2 Headphones

I had them. I really liked the sound. It was a fun sound signature but I returned them because of two reasons. Headband was creaking when lying down Wife was complaining about sound leakage at night sort of defeating the whole purpose of me buying them Otherwise good headphone and I bought it as I r
