How does switching between iPhone/ iPad and MacBook work? I am reluctant to connect to 4 devices if i have to disable Bluetooth every time to switch between iPhone and iPad or MacBook. There must be an intelligent way to do this. The manual does not answer this question.

You can pair with all of them and at least for me it connects automatically to the last used device even if the other devices are around and on (it might be that it connects to the first paired devide, I haven't checked this carefully). If I want to change I just go to the bluetooth setting of the device I want to use and select connect, it then uses that one instead. It would in principle be more convenient if it connected to all devices and picked the one that played some sound, but I guess this would be quite confusing as well.

If you’re connected to two devices and a sound plays on one of them, any audio sessions (music, video, etc.) on your second device will pause. A bit annoying since you have to put your phone on mute to avoid notifications constantly pausing your music.

If you don’t want to do that, you can disconnect from the current paired device right from the headphone by briefly holding the power button.

Hmmm,should test the px with mojo and cable

Sounds like the placebo effect. As far as I can tell, there’s no direct analog line into these phones. The amp will do nothing.

Thx. Something odd has happened. The light is blue, but no connection. Tried everything including reset w/ paperclip but cannot get headphone into pairing mode. Right earcup develops a very hot spot righ above the buttons.

Is that where the battery is? I'd return if so. Overheating batteries worry me.

 

[Herman]

I think so. Am returning them tomorrow

BTW, I have never been able to get my Macbook Pro to recognize the PX over Bluetooth even after disabling my phone. Anyone else having issues with this?

You might try toggling Bluetooth off and then on again (on your MBP) while the PX is in pairing mode. Also, if it pairs but you don’t hear any audio through it, make sure to verify in Prefs > Sounds that output is set to PX.

Picked up replacement today. Initial pairing was quicker, so something definitely was wrong with the first pair. Let’s hope these ones will perform flawlessly

If anyone is interested, I wrote down my thoughts on the PX vs. the ATH-DSR7BT, WH‑1000xM2, and Crossfade II: http://archagon.net/blog/2017/12/08/bluetooth-headphone-sound-off/

I was surprised by how much I liked the Crossfade II, but the PX is also very, very good. Still haven't decided between them...

Great comparison. I have the PX and think you have a very fair accessment. Thank you!

 

[Herman]

Very good comparison. Since I listen mostly to jazz and classical the PX has been the right choice despite its hefty pricetag.

Audio.de have reviewed the PX with a score of 74/100 ('Sehr gut' - Very good). The same issue of the magazine also review the new Beyerdynamic Aventho and it receives 85/100 ('Überragend' - Outstanding).

Wow, I had no idea Beyerdynamic made a wireless headphone. For On-Ear cans those are seriously expensive, though the custom sound profile in the companion app seems like an interesting feature. Guess I'll keep an eye out for an Over-Ear model in the future.

Jim's Review Room has a video up for the PX. I've always enjoyed his videos:

Hi guys, yesterday I picked up the replacement PX after returning the first pair because it just dead. The lows of the px seem much less present than in the p5 series 2. Will this change after burn in or is the sound signature different?
