The p7w's are very special headphones. I bought another pair of my Mrs, and I paid a lot more than 65 quid, you got an absolute bargain there. The best thing is how good they sound wired out of my dragonfly red DAC. Absolutely awesome sound quality for what it is. Best headphone rig I've ever...

Well I tried with the PX7s, or shall I say, my girlfriend did. I find them hugely disappointing sonically, and even my girlfriend A/B’d them against the P7W and said the latter sounded like the band was in the room with you, whereas the PX7 sounds veiled in comparison with the P7. I was also...

Agreed, mind, the mrs likes them, and i did kind of buy them for her (although was willing to take custody if they were an upgrade), so most likely they’ll be staying. I’ll be sticking with the P7Ws though, no doubt. Still the best pair of headphones I’ve owned.

Well if that’s the case, I’ll be staying well away from the Sony! I had some MDR-CD3000 back in the day. Most overrated headphones ever. Really comfy, really rubbish sounding.

Not looking good. I’m not a burn-in denier, but these would have to change enormously for them to be anywhere near the P7. They set a high bar with those headphones. These PX’s sound exactly how I imagine the WH-1000XM3 to sound. They do a better job blocking out noise, and that is it. Shame...

Just got a pair of these today. I haven’t read the full thread, but someone please tell me these get better after a few hours use, or they’re going back on ebay! I bought these for my girlfriend, but having listened to them, they sound like garbage compared to my P7 Wireless. They just sound...

Agree, I did read a review of the XM3 where the reviewer said they liked the hearthrough feature but he felt incredibly rude doing so. I would probably have the same issue. I feel like I’m going to be restricted to neckbuds for my use, as I’m not really wanting to wear a big pair of cans at work...

Yes, I don't think I read of any implementation of it that I would find satisfactory at this stage so I made do without for the M1s, but I hadn't really fully thought about how impractical it would be in the real world.

My first foray into TW headphones is with the Cambridge Melomania 1's. I did a fair bit of research on these and it was either going to be these or the Sony XM3s. I ended up returning them after a week. Some of its issues are more about TW headphones themselves rather than specifically to the...

Well that is interesting indeed. I have actually listened to most of my favourite tracks again this afternoon using the P7Ws wired to my DAC, and I honestly did think to myself whether it was worth bothering spending the money, and you seem to have confirmed it! I could be tempted to get...

So using these in wired mode, I have tried them once in the past out of my NAD D3020 and felt they weren't massively different. However, I am now listening to them out of the headphone jack of my DAC (A Beresford Caiman II) and the sound is very agreeable indeed, definitely a step up from using...

Yeah... many years ago I had an HD600, but I don't remember it being as veiled as this. I tried it out of every source / amp I could get my hands on and it basically never went away. Therefore I'm just concluding they just ain't for me. I don't see any point in trying to make headphones that...

I got someone on the HD58x thread to buy a pair when I was waxing lyrical over them! I paid £240 for mine ($300 USD) and I don't feel in the least bit disappointed for that price, so for $136 it's a complete and utter steal IMO. Thats under £100 in UK money and I'm not confident I could do...

Well, I've got to say, these P7's are in my opinion really good headphones regardless of being wireless or not. I tried some HD58x to replace my DT990, they were the complete opposite of those, and for that reason, I didn't get on with them either. Where the DT990s were bright and thin...

Listening again this morning. I'm just not sure I'm getting on with these at all, so I think they'll be going up for sale. Every time I wear them the impression I get is that they're veiled/muffled. I've ended up putting the wire on my P7s and using those, and am enjoying them more. I think I'll...
