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

In the good old USA, Philly to be exact. That is truly strange. Could be a controlled geographic rollout, which is what Directv does now and then. But it makes no sense that yours is up to date on the version that came with mine. I guess Anker doesn't do FW updates very often?

Funny thing is, Stop Making Sense sounds exactly the same with 1.15 and 1.65, so no idea what bugs they were referring to. Pretty minimalist approach to a FW update, "fixing bugs."

One weird thing about those DD Soundpeats, the only reviews on Amazon (19 right now) all occurred in September, none in October. All 5 stars, to the person. Wonder why no one bothered to review them in October yet? All say verified purchase, just an odd pattern. Oh, and many of them are bunched on the same dates, especially 9/3, 9/13, 9/16 and 9/23. Just find that odd. Probably means nothing.
I always take Amazon reviews with a grain of salt anyway, especially Chi-Fi. Most of the options that mean anything are on here. Some people are "blown away" by this or that, but if they've only used stock earbuds, etc., well of course. Most of us on here have mid-to-high-end setups, even if we're on a wireless addiction. All about context!

I'm finding I'm having a hard time getting a good fit too. The default tips are the right width but they're so long it feels like they're hanging out of my ears rather than resting along whatever the outer flanges of the ear are called. Are you using the stock tips? Besides the fit they're great especially at a mere $120. The compact case is probably my favorite feature though

I also struggled to get a good fit - tried many different tips but they tend to fall off too easily. In the end I removed the 'sports cover' and just went with the default tips - I tend to moisten them slightly and give them a good jiggle around to get the fit nice and deep but I also pull up on both ears to equalise the pressure that's built up from insertion. Once I get a good seal and have equalised the pressure, they sound utterly amazing.

Good points.

NVM I bit the bullet for the Jabra 65t I hope I like them. Guess I will just do my own research and stay a lurker.

Thanks!
There's actually a lot of feedback on the 65t in this thread, you just need to search. :)

They're good, great for calls, fit most people well, and physical controls are decent. The one big gripe is the sound is just "OK" and there have been reports of one side becoming softer in volume over time.

Hey guys, new to posting on this thread, but have been reading it for a while. My MW07+ is coming in tomorrow and I'm going to post a full review after I do some listening and testing for a couple days. I know people have had a tough time connecting to AAC and AptX so I'm going to test that and see if they have fixed this issue. I did e-mail M&D and they stated affirmatively that the MW07+ does support AAC, but we'll see. Also wanted to say this is a great thread and thanks to those who continue to contribute!

Will be very happy if someone finds a way to activate AAC on these!

Yea that's why I was trying to see how they compared too shenling mtw100 in terms of sound. I'm stuck on a budget and wanted to know since I haven't seen any comparisons. Shinling in the forum here was said to be really good for the budget but Jabra had alot of reviews that even compared to Sennheiser (that surprised me). But yea the Jabra was the same price in refurb so yea.

I must admit dual dynamic driver is tickling my fancy - keep us posted!

I missed my Liberty 2 delivery for my work trip :frowning2:
So far, they sound...pretty bad.

- Hollow
- Muffled
- Frequency imbalance (vocals recessed more on left side).
- Disjointed, as if some frequencies (mids & highs) are missing.

It's a very weird sound. Kind of sounds a bit like you're in a cave. No AAC support, just aptX, but it doesn't matter, they sound like trash.

Is it my imagination or do they look like Syllable S101s with wings?

that's a darn shame... it looks really cool

Dual DD like the Syllable and BlitzWolf, but they sound nothing like them. They also fit poorly and do not sit in your ear well. Avoid these. Trash.
Well that takes care of it, thanks for the report.
Might try the LP2 at some point, how do you find their passive isolation compared to say the WF-1000Xm3s?
