For anyone interested here's another eq by a youtuber which helps in taming the bass and opening the sound

I'll give this a go.Thank you

I have ended up reducing the 1k band a couple of dbs in order to tame the mid-bass quantity and bring them to the level of XM4s earbuds. The bass is a bit more than I'd like. Shame as I'm in love with the timbre and overall SQ. Would be interesting to see any tweaks every XM5 owner has applied...

May I ask if you find the Aonic more neutral sounding across the spectrum?

Received mine today and have been listening with them for the past couple of hours. First off, they are a lot bassier than I was expecting and had hoped for - bassier than the xm4 earbuds which I use with Sony hybrids. BUT their comfort is second to none and it's a breeze wearing them - nearly...

That's great to hear as I was hoping that would be the case. WF1000XM4 are my favourite Bluetooth earbuds I've had so far. I consider them superior over anything I've tried including Sennheiser Momentums 1 & 2.

That's why I'm thinking to jump on the xm5 wagon. Sony usually offers consumer-friendly sound signature but at the same time they excell when it comes to natural tonality and musicality. I'm seriously impressed with the WF1000XM4 earbuds and I'm hoping to get more of the same with the xm5

It might be the overall experience which in my case was rather painful with the H95. I'm not a fan of bright headphones but when I a-b-ed them with my HD600 or DT150 they were not on the same level from a pure sq perspective. My preferred signature is neutral with a slight tilt of warmth. The...

Thanks for the initial impressions. Really, you found the H95 superior in pure music performance? I just sold them as I thought they were quite dark sounding for my liking while seriously heavy and uncomfortable for any session more than 30 minutes.

I'm about to pull the trigger so any early impressions will be greatly appreciated! :)

B&O Beoplay H95 Headphones - Black Received these as a gift earlier this year and have only used them a couple of times on a return flight. Unfortunately I have to put them up for sale as they give me discomfort at the top of my head due to having a large head hence I decided to go with B&O...

I did actually manage to get one of off ebay for £465 in November.. .. Sealed. Great piece of kit. Haven't regretted it one bit! Thank you for your interest. I guess the ad can be closed now

Yes!

Can you specify what's better with the new firmware? I'm updating it right now and am curious about what to look for after the upgrade.

No leakage for me too but then again I only use them at 30-35% of their max volune - it's plenty enough for me! The fact that they sound excellent at moderate or even lower volumes is one of their biggest adlvantages in my view.

Has the modification changed their sound in any way?

Excellent post

Can someone please point me to an after market case (EVA preferred) for the H95?

Hi everybody. I just received my H95. Upon a very first brief listening session, I noticed that the treble and higher mids timbre comes out a bit as ''metal-icky''. Has anyone else noticed that too? Is it going to settle-smooth out with use? On another note I don't find them bassy - I'd say...

Looking for a pair of these in docent condition (preferably dark colour). I'm in the UK.

E1DA 9038S Gen2 USB DAC Headphone Amp. Awesome sounding device and capable of driving power-hungry headphones. Used for a few hours only - selling due to an upgrade to Gen3. Unfortunately I am unable to locate the USB-C cable that came with it so this is not included in the box.
