    Yes. I don’t have any problems with LDAC. Shows LDAC on player and app. Setting the player to AptxHD or Aptx gives me AAC. SBC gives me SBC

    Sony WF-1000XM5

    Wwith Sony a306 DAP, using the bluetooth function in android when setting the connection quality, I’m now seeing options for Aptx and Aptxhd with these IEMs. I don’t recall having those options before. When I go to the Sony Headphones App, it shows the codec as aac. Weird.

    They have been awesome. They are quite sticky, though, also they collect dust and debris. However, just a little water and rubbing the outsides of the tips clean every few days takes care of that issue.

    Favorite ear tips?

    I just switched in Azla xelastec tips for the wf-100xm5. The Azla are great. They provide a more secure fit than the Spinfit And provide better isolation. The Azla are expensive, and may not hold up to long term wear, according to reviews. We’ll see, but right now, they are awesome. They fit in...

    I haven’t had any disconnections using a Sony DAP that doesn’t have the strongest blue tooth. If a I am using the best quality LDAC, I will get stuttering depending on where I am.

    I just switched from the spinfit cp360 to Azla xelastec tips. The Azla are great. They provide a more secure fit than the Spinfit. The Azla are expensive, and may not hold up to long term wear, according to reviews. We’ll see, but right now, they are awesome.

    I have had the best fit with the xl Spinfit cp360. It’s the only one I can get a consistent seal easily in both ears that stays sealed. What I really need is Sony to make an XL tip for my right ear, I rarely have a seal issue with the L size in my left ear.

    Experimented with tips. I had a tough time getting a good seal with my right ear with the Included L tips. and when I did get a seal, when I moved around, I’d lose that seal. The L is fine in my left ear. I tried some Spinfit CP360 and CP100plus, The cp100 plus made the buds stick out of my...

    The max volume is pretty good, but the Pixel Bud Pros can be made louder still. I don’t listen to either anywhere near max volume, though.

    Sony WF-1000XM5

    They do sound better musically than the Pixel Buds Pro if you don’t need the wind noise cancelling. If I was riding a bike on the trail, the xm5 would be a problem. I find them more comfortable than the the Pixel Buds Pro, though if I’m walking around for fun and sweating in the summer heat, I’d...
