Bose ultra over ears are finally up and running at Best Buy if you want to listen to them. Great build and impressive sound. Looks like Bose has a hit here, they will be a top seller. Yeah not TWS, just an fyi.
I should have asked this thread before making a decision. I have the Bose SoundLink Flex which is actually incredibly good. But battery ain't that and it has become our babies Brown-Noise machine.Off topic, but I'm pretty happy with my Beosound A1 2nd Gen for a rather compact BT-speaker. Friends have Marshall and JBL, but those can't touch the B&O imo.
I've have both Ultra headphones and earbuds and I really like them both. The headphones sound really clear and have great bass. Not disappointed with purchase at all. Some complain about the new touch bar and physical buttons but I really like it as there are no accidental touches.Bose ultra over ears are finally up and running at Best Buy if you want to listen to them.

I pre ordered the Ace2 to see if it can at least equal the standard bearers in the market like app2 and 1000mx5. Only arrives on 13th Dec though, but I suspect if they are going to demo it at a Camjam in Nov we will get reviews soon.The Ace has a dynamic driver for the bass.
Would you be able to compare ANC between the headphones and the buds? The measurements by Argena on YouTube seem to show the earbuds are better (and that the QC2 the same as the Ultra)… and unlike others, ANC is critical for me so, is the size of the Ultras a worthwhile trade off to the QC2 for air travel?I've have both Ultra headphones and earbuds and I really like them both.

Sure --Thanks for the detailed response.
Do you happen to know which tips you switched to for the better fit?
Perfect, thanks! Ordering a set nowSure --
These.
You can see from the shots here that the opening of the tip is almost parallel to the mesh of the nozzel.
This gives me a good 1 - 1.5mm shorter insersion which means the silicone retaining ring sits much more embedded into the groove in the ear
This is the comparison between stock tips supplied and the Spins
Whenever I use my Fiio UTWS5 with my OnePlus Open (phone) they sound like they go into mono mode like instantly when on AptX Adaptive as soon as I start the music. This issue doesn't happen on LDAC, but then the sound lags so bad that it's unlistenable.
Anyone experienced something like this and know a fix or why it happens?
I agree that the twx9 is excellent everywhere but in heavy wind.Hi All
I was wondering how come the Audio Technica Ath-twx9 fell from grace so quickly around here.
I found them quite confortable, easy fit with a very good sound and it has a good app.
My History has been so far...
Sennheiser MTW (good sound but awful and unreliable battery), Sony wf-1000xm3 (very good app, anc, good sound but uncomfortable fit), Devialet Gemini (very fun sound and very good anc), B&W PI7 (best sound still to date), Sony wf-1000xm4 (same as xm3 despite being smaller), Audio Technica Ath-Twx9, Samsung Buds Pro 2 (i would say it a good companion with any samsung phone and cheap), Denon Perl Pro (still not sure about it, very good sound , lot of effort when i put these on my ears, but then it is quite ok, still wondering if the aptx lossless will provide the kick to make it the one on top)
Yes. I also get random drops in mono mode The UTWS5 is such a buggy product. The left hook just wouldn't charge anymore after just 3 months of use. I also had the right and left hooks suddenly unpair between each other a couple of times.Whenever I use my Fiio UTWS5 with my OnePlus Open (phone) they sound like they go into mono mode like instantly when on AptX Adaptive as soon as I start the music.
