    NEW Bang & Olufsen Beoplay H95 ANC Headphones - Reviews & Impressions

    Has anyone here tried Ananda BT ? I am also exploring that as an option, even if it does not have ANC, for which I anyway have the Xm4

    NEW Bang & Olufsen Beoplay H95 ANC Headphones - Reviews & Impressions

    Buddy, there are literally only a hand full of review videos on YouTube and I don't know how you judged whether they were sponsored in some way or not. This is why forums like this one exist, so that real users can exchange their opinions. You have been vehemently defending the volume issue...

    Interesting, this could potentially be a cause for EU stock (mine from Germany) to be quieter. Thanks for chiming in.

    Fair enough, only thing I want to know now is, are you in love with the H95s??

    Hi, I can see people pairing this with Tidal premium in which case, it is may be unsettling for some to know that you have aptx hd (limited to 576 kbit/s / 48 kHz) when the song itself may be at a much higher resolution, especially with their master at 96 kHz. But I agree in practice the sound...

    Maybe 250 km/hr was not the right speed to make analogy, should have written 150 km/hr restricted would have more aptx, I mean apt. The gist of what I meant was that for the price and how B&O is marketing this product, a little oomph in the volume department would not have hurt. By the way, I am...

    NEW Bang & Olufsen Beoplay H95 ANC Headphones - Reviews & Impressions

    Fact remains that these don't go as loud as any of my other headphones in this price bracket. Also, I will never agree that a little headroom is not warranted, especially if you are spending this kind of money. See if Ferrari sold me a car and said it is restricted to 250 km/hr because it is a...

    Hi Angelom, appreciate your comments. Sound preference is subjective, individual, YES, and so is justifying paying 350 EUR MORE for a headphone because it has leather and a nice dial to control volume. For example I would not pay this money to be able to control volume and as comfortable as...

    just got my H95 (grey). First impressions after 1 hour of using with Hiby R6 Pro (Aptx HD) and also wired + Fit and Finish is VERY good. + Comfortable, if not quite as much as say a Sony MDR-Z7 which are my other phones, which weigh about the same and cost just a tad bit less + Sound is good...

    Hifiman Sundara (HE400i upgraded, around $500)

    Some of you may remember that after the Sundara broke down on me, not once but twice, I have been looking for < $1000 headphones which sound as good or better than the Sundara. Just wanted to share that after a lot of auditioning, I think I have found the perfect ones for me : AUDEZE LCD-2...

    Hifiman Sundara (HE400i upgraded, around $500)

    so my very initial impressions of the Monolith 1060 (rev. 2) : They are very airy with a very wide soundstage which I usually like, but even for my liking, they were a bit too wide. I did not hear the 5K ringing/peaking many people speak of but the female vocals (Adele) did seem slightly peaky...

    Sundara were the first planar cans I had and I was thinking their good sound could be attributed to them being planar ?

    Pretty much how the Sundara sound.....

    Hifiman Sundara (HE400i upgraded, around $500)

    Thanks, I actually had the 660s. The sound did not appeal to me and the clamping pressure was not comfortable for me. By the way, they are not planar....looking for planar.
