Personally, I’m drawn to the underdogs—the gear that gets trashed by the masses piques my curiosity the most. From the OEA1 to the HD700, as a gear enthusiast, I don’t dismiss something just because it’s :


Strengths: These open-back headphones are super comfortable, even in really hot weather. They’re lightweight and feel unique, with sound that spreads out like it’s all around you, almost like listening to speakers. The sound is clear and crisp. You can adjust the angle of the drivers to fit your preference, which is cool. It’s a one-of-a-kind product.


Weaknesses: The sound quality is just okay, not super detailed, and it’s missing the LDAC codec, which is a bummer.

I’m the kind of person who gets curious about stuff everyone else trashes. The more people complain about something, the more I want to try it! From the OEA1 to the HD700, as a gear lover, I don’t judge things just because they’re Bluetooth. I was really curious about the NWM One’s sound, so I tracked down a pair to test. Let’s get to the point!


The brand doesn’t brag that these are “the most open headphones ever,” but I think they’re the real deal. No ear cups, no pads, no walls—just two tiny speakers beaming sound straight into your ears. Other headphones claim to be “open” but still use thick pads or covers to boost the bass. Not these.


They’re even more open than the famous K1000, with no barriers at all. But the bass is still strong. As a 40-year-old who doesn’t need booming bass, I think it’s plenty deep for open headphones. The bass feels tight, and every drumbeat sounds clear and real, like a live drum instead of a fake electronic one. The bass comes from a 35mm driver, so it stays clean and doesn’t mess with other sounds.


Midrange: This part’s a bit weak. Voices sound strange, kind of far away, and the tones here feel dull. In Shakin’s Because I Love You, the singing gets lost in the music, like you’re hearing it at a crowded concert. But for music without vocals, it does a decent job.


Highs: The high notes aren’t super bright or sparkly, but they’re there without being harsh. It’s like a soft, gentle brightness—just enough to notice.


Overall clarity: I’d say the sound is clear enough, but nothing special. It’s average.


Soundstage: This is where these headphones shine. The sound feels huge, like it’s coming from every direction around your head, not just one spot. Depending on the song, you can really feel where each sound is coming from. It’s awesome.


Sound separation: The way sounds are separated or layered is just okay. These can’t match closed-back headphones because they’re basically tiny speakers hanging near your ears. At around $300, they work great as head-mounted speakers—way better than regular room speakers. But compared to normal headphones, the sound isn’t as polished.
