If someone really enjoyed these headphones and wanted something with the same fullness and richness but with a more neutral bass, what would be recommended? Or is the fullness because of the elevated bass and you can’t have one without the other?

I for one prefer the P9’s by quite a bit, at least 19 out of 20 times on songs. The PX7’s occasionally play well in certain parts of a song or for just some types of songs but the P9‘ s have a much fuller and richer sound. I can understand why people dislike it’s bassy signature but everything...

I actually didn’t want the P9’s to be that much better than the P7W’s. It’s possible I imagined it or maybe I just prefer the sound of the P9’s that much more? It has always surprised me how divided people are on it. I wonder if there were manufacturing problem that led to people receiving bad...

There’s a lot of emotion and feelings involved when rating headphones so it can’t be strictly based on science. I would say it’s a bit akin to rating food. We can put together a scientific list of the most nutritious meals but you can’t do that for the best tasting meals because it’s simply...

I’m listening to music right now on the P9’s and I find them to be several steps above the P7W’s (wired or wireless). I purchased the P7W’s for my girlfriend as a gift and a short while later I purchased the P9’s for myself and when I borrowed the P7W’s from my girlfriend to A/B them I felt bad...

I use the Apple USB-C to 3.5mm dongle which surprised me with how good it sounded when I plugged it in. I actually went looking for reviews afterwards and not so surprisingly, it is actually a high quality dac/amp. It measures better than the black dragonfly dongle even though it only retails...

It seems very common to be able to replace earpads on headphones because they wear out but it’s rare to see a manufacturer make their headbands replaceable. Don’t headbands also wear out similarly to earpads?

Anyone here ever compare the P9’s to the Sennheiser HD 800 S? I’m considering adding the Sennheisers but I’m hoping to get a bit more feedback from anyone who has compared them. This is what I currently own and how I feel about these headphones, Audio Technica ATH-AD900 (iPad Pro with USB-C...

I’ve been looking into flagship headphones including the Sennheiser HD800S, Sennheiser HD820, Sony Z1R and Focal Utopia and it seems sibilance is common with flagships. Right now I'm using the Bower and Wilkins P9's with an Apple USB-C to 3.5mm adapter and this combo sounds good to me but I'm...

Has anyone compared the PX7’s to the PX9’s? I have and really enjoy the PX9’s and I wish I could have wireless PX9’s. Do the PX7’s get close in sound quality?

I was hoping they would be doing something more advanced, similar or the same as their Dolby Atmos for Headphones system. So this will probably be more like their Pro Logic system. Still, I'm hoping someone does a shootout between Dolby Atmos for Headphones and these Dolby Dimensions Headphones.

I haven't seen any posts or news for the Dolby Dimension headphones on head-fi so I'm creating this thread. https://products.dolby.com/dimension/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIs9Sro8rZ3gIVpiCtBh0G_wl7EAAYASAAEgJ7dfD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds#ProductDetails There are several reviews already available including some...

In particular used headphones that use cloth for the earpads and not something more hygienic like leather. Now if I'm not mistaken, used in-ear headphones are a no unless you can properly sanitize them or change the tips as that can actually transmit an infection, but what about headphones with...

Well I've had an iPod Touch 1G, 2G, and 5G classic along with a 2G shuffle, and a 1G and 3G Touch and a Zune HD. I've done direct comparisons between a 1G Touch and a 5G classic, a 5G classic and a Zune HD, a 5G classic and a 3G touch, and a 3G Touch and Zune HD. I always hear people here...

I've been playing with the Zune HD for a few hours now and comparing the sound quality to a 5G iPod Classic. It's better, more clear and better stereo separation with maybe a slightly wider soundstage. It's a noticeable difference but not night and day. The 1G iPod Touch is better than the 5G...

I'm pretty disappointed in this thread. I came here because I wanted to hear opinions on the remasters and whether stereo or mono was better. I came here because I listen through headphones and although I wouldn't call myself an audiophile I do care about sound. The comments on sound quality are...

I'm really interested in hearing some sound quality tests and comparisons. This is one of the things that is going to decide what capacity size I get.

So are these at Apple stores yet? I'm seriously disappointed by the lack of a camera. I sold my 1G thinking the 3G would have a camera so I'm seriously disappointed. I may buy a used 1G 8gb if I can find one pretty cheap <$100 just for applications and then go for the Zune HD but it's all riding...
