What version is that? Current is 5.0.3. Thanks.Installed the new firmware update today and it makes them sound even better IMHO.

Can't say I experience anything like that.After installing 5.0.4 it feels like the left earcup is slightly louder than the right one. Anyone else has the same issue? Any idea what i could do? Thanks
Going to be honest with you I’ve kept silent on this issue for a few months,After installing 5.0.4 it feels like the left earcup is slightly louder than the right one. Anyone else has the same issue? Any idea what i could do? Thanks
You’re not wrong. To simulate a bigger space in a room, they have to make delays in corresponding sounds because of how soundwave actually travels in a room. The bigger the room is, the more delay it will take to produce the “depth”. Now, the differences are imperceptible for most people more often than not, but apparently some of us do notice it. I am guessing that at the most extreme setting, B&O puts more than 40ms delay causing this problem.Going to be honest with you I’ve kept silent on this issue for a few months,
I always thought it was my ears, or mabye the music but it ever so slightly louder than the right. Thanks for confirming my beliefs.
I went to Best Buy and compared with the other H9i on display, I used the same tracks as the display and I could hear a slight difference.
From what I gather the left ear may be slightly louder because of the earpads. It’s mass production and each ear pad is shaped ever so slightly different so let’s say , the padding on one ear pad is slightly less than the other it means the speaker is closer to your head , which in turn means it’s louder.
I don’t know I just hope it’s not a problem with the drivers, and checking b&o customer service reviews they may not give a care about me.
Last but not least if you go in the app and check the sound signature editor , if you expand the circle you can hear how the sound in one ear seems louder than the other to simulate a larger sound stage, I’m thinking bang and Olufsen set a difference in one driver to simulate it, but that’s just a theory.
Actually I’ve observed that even since the H7.Hmm the strange thing is that i didnt noticed it on the previous firmware
Hi Carlos, and everyone else in this thread, official B&O documentation states (in my own words.) the music stops and starts because the proximity sensor is not functioning correctly.
I agree, I have noticed this too, make sure you have clean tracks, it may just be more sensitive. I hope they fix it.Also, I may be losing my mind but it seems like the sound quality after the update is lousy. Almost like distortion, not for the voices or highs but in the low mids and bass... Anyone see this?
