Please, do not apologize. It's exciting to see someone who it has worked out perfect for - it ticks every box for me except for potential fit issues and comparisons in ANC to the QC2's.
Minidisc though! Thanks dude, I think I've found myself lining up a potential buy. I hold you accountable!
Feel you on the front of the patience though - releases seem to incremental and tend to have caveats of some sort when comparing to another option. That for me is enough to hold off until there's finally something that ticks all the boxes. The MW09's look really interesting but already, a review has given some insight on them.
But then again, that's one review of more to come. I'm sure someone in here will at least give them a go (hinting @erockg or @clerkpalmer
)I'm just going to hope their support follows their introductory features and unlocks more for it in time (much like the MTW3's were vastly improved after a late update.)
I don't think we'll even get a Snapdragon sound dongle. Qualcomm does have a dongle but it's purely an LE low latency play for gamers. I have no idea about chip architecture but maybe there's a hardware limitation for breaking it out.
I remember when Snapdragon sound first became a thing. I think I had a Google Nexus phone then. It's funny because back then Apple sounded much better. Now Qualcomm kept at it and won the battle, but maybe they lost the war?
Edit: what the heck am I saying? I was using wired back then.
With Qualcomm pushing their own envelope by expanding into other areas such as the PC market, coupled with the marketing they're bringing along with it, I wouldn't be surprised if they do have a poke at other markets in the coming years, and it would all likely be proprietary too.
The praise they have received over the last few years for their achievements could be seen as a perfect opening for them to release their own properiety tech line.
