    My wife has the XM3s and I prefer the APM's noise cancellation, transparency mode, and sound (especially the sound). But with the weight/clamping of the APMs they had to go back. :( One nice thing of the APMs is the ability to go from music playing/ANC mode to music stopped/Transparency mode...

    My APMs spent last night getting stretched out by some books. 🤷‍♂️ In the interest of sharing some good music, here is some electronic music that I think is really engaging to listen to on the APM: CloZee - Amazonia A$AP Ferg - New Level (Eprom Remix) (careful, this one is heavy) Flume -...

    Yes, I think the 5.1+ Spatial Audio sounds really nice. And in general I like the sound a lot, it's fun but maybe a little tiring (or is that the ANC?). However, they hurt my head when I wear them for a while, and I feel weird microphonics in the pads in ANC/Transparency mode. I also can't...

    If I want the best quality playback wirelessly should I be putting lossless files (ALAC) on my phone? Will that make a difference? I'm normally just putting V0 MP3s on my phone for regular AirPod usage... Thanks.
