    Jaybird x3 vs sony XB950bt

    Yes, I agree. The charging cable and adapter are annoying. I don't know why they designed it so poorly. It's not something that would change my mind about buying them though. I just have to be careful not to lose it. I think it's $25 for a new one.

    What are head-fi members views on apt-x lossless codec (over bluetooth)?

I am a relative novice in all this but in-ear buds vs over-ear headphones are totally different experiences. Your first consideration is which type you are more comfortable with. From there, try...

    My new headphones support aptX but does it matter if I have compressed audio files?

    This is all new to me. I used to just grab any headphones. I decided to find some better ones and get noise canceling so my next international flight is a little more tolerable. I have been trying out a lot of wireless Bluetooth noise canceling headphones.   I tried the QC35s, Sony MDR100X...
