    Sony WF-1000XM4 Impressions Thread

    Three days in with these and still happy ... i had previously ditched the stock tips for a set of RHA silicones (from the T20) but have since replaced with silicone tips from my gen 1 wired Sennheiser Momentums and seal / comfort balance has improved again. I'd really like to be able to...

    Sony WF-1000XM4 Impressions Thread

    Have you tried enabling LDAC in the bluetooth settings for your XM4's? I had this exact issue yesterday on my Samsung A70 and searched for a solution and a guy had posted a video showing that ... connect via BT, then go to the BT settings for the connection and enable LDAC ... mine's works now.

    I normally use Amazon but they were out of stock so went with Currys online ... ordered Friday, received yesterday.

    Sony WF-1000XM4 Impressions Thread

    Got mine yesterday and so far pretty impressed ... couldn't get any kind of seal / comfort balance from the stock tips though and have reverted to RHA silicones from my T20s. Question: Is it (or will it be) possible to better customise the touch sensor functionality in the app? I'd like to be...

    Sony WF-1000XM4 Impressions Thread

    That's what I'm seeing too ... shows release date 11th June (tomorrow) but estimated delivery as the 16th ... wonder if they ship from mainland Europe and get lost in the Brexit black hole that is UK customs? Currys show them as releasing 12th (Saturday) and can be delivered that day! I plan...

    Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?

    Coming really late to this thread and have to admit not having read all of it but wanted share my experience with the Creative Outlier Air ... will try and keep short! I have had more sets of head / earphones over the years that I’m prepared to admit to my wife but fait to say it’s a lot I...

    Amazon launches Music HD with lossless streaming

    Been lurking on thread for a while and dipping in and out of Amazon HD during the 3 month trial. I have the Spotify family plan at the moment at Amazon HD is tempting as it clearly sounds better in certain environments and as a Prime member, isn't too much more expensive. Coup!e of...

    Desktop Headphone Amp With Bluetooth Transmitter?

    Zero responses to this but I've made progress by adding a Bluetooth transmitter to my setup. Aptx enabled, connected from the headphone out on my desktop amp via a splitter that allows my wired headphones to be enabled in addition to the BT transmitter. Sounds pretty good to my Grado GW100...

    Desktop Headphone Amp With Bluetooth Transmitter?

    Hi, apologies if covered elsewhere (I have searched, honest!) When I'm listening to vinyl at home, it's 80% via wired headphones connected to a LittleDot I valve headphone amp fed from zone 2 on main AV amp ... Not perfect but perfectly adequate I listen a lot in the office and on the go via...

    Grado Wireless Series

    My wife called my mobile a few days ago when I was listening with the Grados ... she sounded clear to me and I asked her if she could hear me OK and she confirmed she could. Not a thorough test in any way but nothing to raise any concerns.

    Grado Wireless Series

    Grado UK confirmed that the standard case is suitable for the GW100 and that they had no info about a dedicated case.

    Grado Wireless Series

    Got mine yesterday in the UK ... first impressions very good but I won't be able to wax as lyrical as some of the previous posts so no point trying. Have emailed Grado UK about the case query as these will likely be coming to work with me so need protection. One comment though, initial testing...

    Grado Wireless Series

    Just about to order these ... anyone know if they will fit in a standard Grado case as I'd need to order one of these too.

    RHA - T20 - Impressions, Reviews, and questions

    I've had the T20s for a while now but rarely use them as I have got used to the convenience of wireless / bluetooth (I know, I know!) ... I have the Bose QC35s and the Bose Soundsports. After a long period of not using the T20s I picked them up last week and was disappointed at how 'dull' they...

    Bose QC35 Wireless Noise-Cancelling Headphones

    I'm also a big fan of the QC35's in non-flying environments.  My collection of over / on / and in ear 'phones is such that I need to have places to hide them from the wife or she would go nuts that I spend so much and have so many (I have a good shoes counter argument but it would prove a gamble...

    Pioneer XDP 100R after updates?

    I have had the XDP-100R for a a few months now and still love it.   I too don't get on well with the stock player and initially started using the GoneMad player but am now happily running an alpha of the next Poweramp and love it.  The ability to manually update album art and scrobble to...

    Bose QC35 Wireless Noise-Cancelling Headphones

    I've had mine for 2 weeks and they have been at firmware rev 1.0.3 until 5 mins ago... Just opened the android app and it updated to 1.0.5... Should I notice anything different?

    Pioneer's first DAP, the XDP-100R announced in IFA

      Are you using DS Audio to stream the files or download for offline playback?  I also have a Synology NAS so have some experience of DS Audio (used previously on an Android phone) ... never really been a fan though ... also never been convinced that DS Audio doesn't do some 'on the fly'...

    Pioneer's first DAP, the XDP-100R announced in IFA

      I think neither ... I tried a set of Sennheiser MIE2s with Android controls (works on my LG G3 & Samsung S7) but no joy ... was the reason I bought a set of RHA T20s with no inline remote.   Also the reason I'm considering selling my Bose QC25s and buying a set of QC35s or Sennehiser...

    Pioneer's first DAP, the XDP-100R announced in IFA

    Does anyone know how to change the 'wallpaper' image on the player home screen?   Is it just a case of putting an image file in the correct folder to make it visible to the wallpaper option when you long press on the home screen?  If so, which folder does the image need to be in?

    Pioneer's first DAP, the XDP-100R announced in IFA

    I tried out the GoneMAD app for the first time at the weekend which has addressed my missing album art and last.fm scrobbling issues.   Customisable as hell, looks great and sounds perfectly acceptable to my ears with mainly 16 bit ALAC.   Just wish it has a cooler sounding app name but its...

    Pioneer's first DAP, the XDP-100R announced in IFA

    Just installed the Poweramp app on the Pioneer (have used it previously on Android phone). Plays nice with last.fm scrobbling apps, downloads missing album art... All nice. Two questions: 1) am I technically sacrificing audio quality? (all tracks 16bit ALAC) 2) base volume is about twice...
