    Sony WF-1000XM4 Impressions Thread

    Picked up the Spinfit CP360's, L/M. Super nice! Most definitely enhances the top end and overall clarity, esp the mids. Feels like an overall upgrade across the board, going to give them a few days before posting thoughts. Using the medium sized buds, large I couldn't get a good seal for some...

    Sony WF-1000XM4 Impressions Thread

    you sir are 100% correct. the adapter does support aptX but the sony's do not, hence defaulting to SBC. (I am using the Homespot Bluetooth 5.0 adpater) Taking a look at the Genki and both the Genki and Sony's support AAC, but many of the reviews are saying they are having troubles actually...

    Sony WF-1000XM4 Impressions Thread

    After a month or so of heavy usage, I love the convenience of these (and the sound of course). Some questions: -I fall asleep with these in every day now, listening to audiobooks. My audiobook player has a sleep timer of 45 minutes, is there any way to have the xm4's turn off as well? I have...

    Sony WF-1000XM4 Impressions Thread

    Apologies if I am incorrect, but aren't you supposed to keep that on? For wired amp/headphone connection I thought you leave that on for maximum signal going through. I may be mistaken.

    oh weird, mines linked. (android, note 8). Also most definitely no volume issues here! they get way too loud haha. Anyone else having having issues resuming playback with "youtube vanced" with tapping right bud, or sometimes soundcloud? I feel it gets confused sometimes, maybe it's a floating...

    Sony WF-1000XM4 Impressions Thread

    yea one thing I did notice, it's all about the seal (of course). Switched the the larger tips and the ANC working wonders now. Still can't get rid of some vocals (girlfriend) but they are great

    Sony WF-1000XM4 Impressions Thread

    aw nuts. my right one went out, wont connect. left one still does, both fully charged in the dock. reset phone etc anyone know how to factory reset? xm3 was like holding both for 10 seconds in the case but that doesn't seem to work with xm4's? **edit: I can't find any manual of the WF-1000XM4...

    Sony WF-1000XM4 Impressions Thread

    yea... previously i could change that with the xm3's but not here: https://imgur.com/a/pdWbJxJ just a general question, do you guys use DSEE extreme on or off? On for lower quality streaming like soundcloud and youtube?

    Sony WF-1000XM4 Impressions Thread

    just received em! First impressions, love the sound. better than the XM3's for sure, did some quick EQ (upped the treble a bit, lowered 1k mids, clear bass +2) but will dive in further. big sound, detailed, separated, soundstage is good. ANC wise, as above posts, yea i didn't really notice a...

    Sony WF-1000XM4 Impressions Thread

    Arriving by 9pm! Excited. I bought the wf-1000xm3 but returned them a week later a few months back, looking forward to the improvements with the xm4. All the reviews I've seen seem WAY too positive to be entirely true, tiding my expectations, but still excited.

    Wireless bluetooth IEMS with noise cancelling (voices mostly), looking for recommendations around $300.

    my bad! yes the WF thank you for clarifying. and on topic ANC or isolation.... depends I suppose! whichever really blocks out voices (and snoring) more. I never really liked ANC in the few i've tried (very briefly). feel like sound quality was always compromised or muffled a bit... But I am...

    Wireless bluetooth IEMS with noise cancelling (voices mostly), looking for recommendations around $300.

    It's been a while since I've been here... and it's about damn time I came back. I understand wireless isn't the greatest sound quality, but I am looking for something decent while working from home moving about. I would like something with noise cancelling, myself and my GF working from home in...

    Headphones for bed

    hahah. Seriously! There are times when I wake up tangled in cords around my head and arms area. So I sleep with one earplug in, sidesleeper, and one earbud in the other side to fall asleep to audiobooks (harry potter of course), but alas even with just one side plugged in it still will...

    Your “wow” headphones

    hey me too! definitely the ones that got me into the rabbit hole. I gave my (semi) modded pair to my buddy to try and get him into the hobby. Though it was fine cause of all the more expensive ones i purchased... worst decision ever haha, don't think he even uses them (this was 10 years ago).

    Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread

    These do pair this much differently with tubes? I made the q1mkii with balanced cable jump, and it was night and day. I've never experienced headphones through a tube power source, although I have played guitar on a tube amp. Are listening to headphones through different tube powered amps that...

    Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread

    Thank you for the detailed reply, really appreciate it. I mean everything you mentioned Sonic wise sounds great improvement wise, I'll certainly look further into it. So with the mkii there's a bass boost switch, which is quite nice, but it's more mid-bass punch than sub-bass. I feel like that...

    Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread

    care to elaborate a bit? I did a balanced cable/fiio q1mkii 'upgrade' and to me that was night and day difference, haven't looked into the KISS mod much.

    STUPID QUESTION BUT What does a DAC do???

    Apologies reviving this thread from the dead, have had my first week with a DAC/amp combo (q1mkii with a balanced cable and 6XX) My first impressions are floored, I know this thread is old but do you see the mkii as oversampled or over colored? The bass boost most certainly adds some color but...
