What are your impressions on the improvements and drawbacks. I've seen numerous accounts that are somewhat conflictual with each other other than the h100 having a larger sound stage seems to be agreed

Is the fit pretty much similar to H95? As I mentioned above, the H95 looks a bit weird on my head, because for some reason my head geometry makes the top band stretch out almost entirely flat across the top instead of curved like a regular headphone band. I dont have a local place to try the...

If the h95 didn't exist, I'd say the price is fine. But so long as the h95 is still available to order for its current price again, I'd have a hard time recommending this new headphone from what I've seen

For me, personally I disable spatial processing because I don't like it , so the Atmos stuff would be useless (I dont use headphones for movies, music only). Wear sensor, meh. H95 controls were nice wheels too even if the h100 a bit better So for me would be double the cost just based on sound...

Seems like from impressions most are saying the biggest improvement from the H95 is the soundstage. This is great to hear as I am a soundstage fan. Although it sounds like its tuned quite differently, so perhaps one will be better at some material than the other and vice versa. What's more...

Was a really exciting headphone that made me re-listen to my whole collection which is exceedingly rare. Posted a lot because of how incredible it sounded. I basically have forgot about the $750 Grado RS1x I had bought recently. The OAE1 really does it all for me.

Been playing Death Stranding on PC with OAE1, its a fantastic match. Immersive sound for an immersive game!

liked this one a lot on OAE1:

I don't have one to test but I bet the OAE1 would be spectacular with the SPL Phonitor X

@pr0l0w @Shane D I didn't read your whole discussion but I had the Liquid Platinum for about a year. IMO that amp would be a horrible match for the OAE1, too thick, colored, and rounded which will make the OAE1 sound congested and closed-in. Need a more clean/neutral amp for this headphone...

There is no place in my area for me to try it

Next time i get a spare pile of cash, i think 3000x will be my next buy

Yeah closing your eyes with the OAE1 can yield some interesting experiences like this on certain content. Once you stop trying to hear stuff, thats when it clicks

Don't worry I am encouraging people in the OAE1 thread similarly to pick up the Grado RS1X. Together, they conquer pretty much any content that exists, quite the dynamic duo. On content where one sounds a bit iffy, the other sounds amazing. The two have become my most favorite headphones of...

Masterful!
