Also If im using a Sony bluetooth dongle to connect to speakers would there be any difference...- josephkarthic

Huge Comparison of [almost] all the Best Bluetooth Headphones - post your own comparisons here
Have you tried it? The ATH-WS99BT with its Original earpads are completely portable because the earpads are small, more like On ear instead of Over ear.. But if you add Hm5 earpads its a bit large but the sound quality surpasses everything..- josephkarthic

Definitely worth it...But be sure to also buy a brainwavz hm5 earpads for them, It will fit very perfectly and its very very comfortable than the stock earpads on the WS99BT which is more like On-ear instead of Over-ear.. So HM5 is a must and you also get better bass.. But if you have small...- josephkarthic

Im using WS99BT with HM5 earpads along with Viper4Android plugin, If anyone has root on your Android mobile you should definitely check it out, its easy to install as normal apk and the sound output you will get out of that is 10x more present than the normal player output. It acts as a global...- josephkarthic
