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

Thanks. Checked Flossy's review and it seemed the mic were not very clear when compared to other TWS.

I don't think they're worth full price, but I had a coupon for being a previous buyer via Devialet. The second gen are one of my favorites in my collection.

My Adapter arrived for the Intel BE200 (WIFI7/BT5.4) to change the Key type from A+E to E.

Has the ANC improved much from Gen 1? It was pretty good then, but I'm hoping it is now close to Bose-like. I bike over a the Manhattan Bridge regularly and the bike lane is right next to passing subway trains, and apparently my Jabra Elite 10s can only block out danish train noise, which must be much more pleasant than New York City train noise. I would get the Bose but lack of multipoint is a maddening deal breaker.

I don't think the ANC is that much different. Haven't tried them on a plane yet. Headed to NYC in a few weeks so they'll get tested for sure. Bose usually crushes though.

Definitely not Bose like. Better than the average ANC you'll find on a standard set but not the soul sucking variety that bose has.

Cool, thanks for sparing me some mild disappointment. If anyone wants a 20% off code for the Gemini 2, PM me. I'll be waiting for my Creative Aurvanas.

Thanks. Just curious, how is sound compared to AZ80?
Oh, man, I very much prefer the Devialet. Some will disagree. I like the soundstage and the bass of the DG2 better. That said, I've never been a huge fan of the Technics buds. Something about the sound... but, the AZ80s were my favorites. It's a very nice package. But again, sound, I preferred/prefer the DG2. Mind you, I listen to a lot of hard rock and metal. Others can chime in here.

Graphene 9.2mm plus BA. LDAC AAC SBC LC3 with 36 hours battery ANC on. "Advanced multipoint", 2 beamform mics with AI voice and BC sensors. Adaptive ANC and transparency and windnoise level control with the app. Qi and 10 min. for 1.5 hours quick charging. Leather accents on the buds face and top of the case lid to be more upscale as a Fidelio should be. :)

Wonder if they'll be smaller than they look because they look HUGE (and I have small ears).
