Bathys

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

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

Different tuning, access to PEQ; hopefully improved ANC and transparency, with less occlusion. Unpopular opinion, but despite Sound Personalization being nearly as good as AAT for producing a near-PEQ-like tuning, I will gladly pay the entrance fee for an ANC headphone with an actual parametric EQ o

i love the focal bathys after years on sennheiser hd1 as my wireless cans. got them open box, honestly might upgrade to the bathys mg if i can find open box w all the traveling ive been doing. on akg 701s and senn hd660s at home but mostly bumping kefs, but the bathys have been good enough soundwise

Yeah the only disadvantage of the Bathys MG is the price and the fact it's a "battery powered" product. People hate the idea of paying such price for a product that's eventually going to stop working when the battery dies. People also treat sound products with a diminishing returns vision - if the d

I had the Chance to demo both the OG and MG Bathys in the Focal & Naim shop in Paris (tested all presets: wireless and DAC modes + with and without the Mimi personalization + with and without the Dynamic EQ): The OG Bathys sounded great to my ears... Until I tried the MG. It was impossible to like o

It’s only my own opinion, discolure I own the Bathys (and a few other Bluetooth ANC headphones including competing Senn HDB630 and Momentum 4). I went into my hi-fi store last week for a speaker repair and I took the time while waiting to compare the Bathys (which I own and know well) and the Bathys

I’m interested in trying out the HDB 630 out. I owned the Bathys for a year some change and felt like the sound was good and crisp. I do prefer more bass in my music and EQed a profile for it but it was also good for podcasts and audiobooks as well (separate EQ profile). I’m hoping the 630 can match

I've owned the M4 and the driver is a bit crap. If I wanted V-shaped FR then I would (and do) use the XM5 which does everything better. This headphone is offering what sounds like a very neutral driver tuning made with headroom for PEQ, something the m4 isn't. It's more nuanced than just an M4 with

No, because you not a youtube reviewer who makes money off of giving what people thing is EXPERT advice to tens or hundreds of thousands of people like this Aaron guy. People who do this should at least have a minimum understanding of what is correct sound. It's ok to SUBJECTIVELY like a fun sound t
