    Focal Elegia - what do you think?

    Been thinking of adding these to my collection. Just wondering how these compare to the Senn 58x, which are my current daily drivers. I think I have an idea, but want to hear from anyone that might have both.

    Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?

    https://m.gsmarena.com/nothing_ear_1_review-news-50295.php One more ear 1 review. Also mentions treble can get sibilant at times.

    In so far as the EQ, it does have customizable options. From their page:

    Don't have the P3s, but I've got a couple of other models from Soundcore. The Liberty Pro 2 and the A2 ANC. Lots of bass with the default EQ. Personally I think it gets the job done if you don't need something that has out of this world sound. If you don't want all of that bass you can always...

    You're right nevermind lol. I probably thought it was aptx hd because the OP8t setting for selecting codecs says HD audio.

    I have the Pi5 and in my [very] limited experience I haven't experiences a huge difference going between AptX-HD, AAC, and SBC on my OP8t. I also have an iPhone, but I haven't really used them much with the Pi5, but I might just give it a try in the next day or so just to see if there is any...

    Beats Studio Buds Impressions Thread

    I hadn't really thought of it much before, but yeah. Usually when I take them out of the case they are at 98%. I have too many TWS than I know what to do with lol. The XM4s aren't part of that collection though. The highest end (by price) TWS I have are the B&W PI5. Compared to those the BSB...

    Beats Studio Buds Impressions Thread

    First impressions (mostly on the physical aspects of it) Really like the size overall. The case isn't the most compact, but its got a flatter design than most. Makes it really convenient as a daily driver. The earbuds themselves are also really compact. Despite seeing a few reviewers with them...

    The Beats Studio Pro weren't really on my radar, but at $150, I'm actually kind of intrigued. I've actually been using the Beats Flex for about a month now and they aren't mind blowing, but they aren't all that bad either. It has a pretty mainstream V-shaped sound, but it does it well. Certainly...

    I might just try it. I did switch to SBC at one point, but it didn't sound nearly as good as far as I can remember.

    Quick update on the B&W PI5 Noticed that one of TK33's phones is the 8t. It happens to be my primary phone as well. Although I'm not sure it mean's much. Anyway, I decided to do some testing with my older phone, the Galaxy S10e, and initially things were going fine. It connected just fine and...

    Don't know if you mean the battery life of just the earbuds themselves or overall, but I've had issues with the earbuds staying on when I put them in the case. Usually causes an annoying whistling sound and sometimes I just have to take them out of the case and let them drain completely before...

    The Bowers & Wilkins PI5 is such a frustrating product. Love the sound, the ANC has been great for me, and they fit great. But the connectivity issue just kills the entire experience. I picked mine up at audio46 near Times Square and I kept getting frequent drops. Figured that it was a tough...

    I've got the FN6. Out of the box the tuning is weird as bronco1015 said of the FN7. Its completely devoid of bass. No rumble, no impact, not even a bit of punch. And I'm not even a huge basshead. What I will say is that it does at least respond well to EQ, so I decided to keep them and still use...
