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

    I've actually looked at the H95 to use as an all rounder, and instead got the EPOS Adapt 660 specifically for calls. However, I did exchange a few emails with B&O support and got the impression that you can turn off the transparency mode so as to at least achieve passive isolation. I decided...

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

    Just to clarify, are you saying your own voice sounds different during a phone call vs a Teams call? Yeah, I agree, it would make it applicable for more use cases & scenarios. I had actually wrote B&O Support on this topic, but was thinking my message got lost/ignored since I didn't get a...

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

    Thank you both. Can you say if this is true for calls also when connecting to a computer? I would imagine it is as it would most likely use the same profile/protocol, but I guess hope dies last...

    Hi angelom, so if you use the earcup ring to try and activate ANC, what happens? Nothing? Thanks?

    New Yamaha Headphones

    Thank you all for your impressions. Can you maybe test the microphone / voice quality / noise rejection during calls? I know Romani said he had this issue even with a second replacement pair but I'm hoping it's some sort of fluke or somehow depending on the phone... how could Yamaha release a...

    The Official Sony TA-ZH1ES Hi-Res Headphone Amplifier (Live From IFA 2016)

    Hi, I've searched high and low for this and haven't able to find a definitive, clear answer: If I connect, at the same time, headphones and powered speakers to the Sony, can I simply switch between the two outputs (say, using the remote) and only one will be active? Or will connecting...

    suggestion for a mic amp

    Quote: Basically because they put a real microphone on it. Don't compare it to a $100 gaming headset - those mics are more akin to a telephone handset then a broadcast or recording microphone. It looks like you need a mic preamp - your soundcard probably can't do the job. and my...

    HMD 280 PRO

    ph0rk, thanks for the clarification. Still, wouldn't that mean that with a better amplification I'd still get mic/loop effect?... Apparently, the soundcard can drive the mic, if I set the volume to maximum, but then I can't use it at all because of loop effect (I'm not even sure that's how...

    Question about Gaming Headphones

    I couldn't give you an advice regarding headphones, as up until now I have used a cheap Philips, semi-open pair, but as settings go, I use gaming mode, eax enabled, cmss enabled (cmss surround NOT expand), crystalizer enabled, smart volume management enabled and headphone mode. In, general, in...
