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

My Mystique crap the bed the other week. Would cut out from one side repeatedly. Emailed support, did a couple factory resets. still didn't work, but they quickly said to mail them to their spot in Texas and they'd send out a new set. Shipped them out today. They were very responsive via email.
Same thing happened to me. They were fantastic about replacing mine. They seem like a great bunch of guys.

I’ll try them out at that price. I guess I can find out how they stack up to AZ60/80 instead of just asking. Still think Status 3ANCs sound the best of what I’ve tried. But my AZ80s haven’t arrived yet.

If Samsung won't come to AptX Adaptive, AptX Adaptive comes to Samsung :)

180° USB-C adapter and a Creative BT-W5 + Tidal HiFi Plus + Denon DPP = Best Wireless experience i've ever heard
PS. put up a Sennheiser BTD600 up for sale if someone wants one a bit cheaper like-new

After spending the last few days reading a good portion of this discussion forum, ordered the B & O Ex (acceptable for $207) off Amazon and will be here Saturday. Hoping I have as much luck on condition as several others that have ordered them. Wanted to say thanks to all of you for the information and input that I have gotten from reading all of your posts and hope I made the right decision on choice. Came down to the Ex, EQ, B & W Pi7, MTW3, 3ANC, and Az80 and finally decided to pull the trigger on those at that price after reading the comments. I listen to a lot of female vocals and not sure if they are the best for that, but we'll see. If not, there's always Amazon return. Again, thank you everyone for the silent help.

How do you find the BT-W5? Better than the BTD600? I have the BTD600, so wondering why you changed?

Just got these today. Holy cow. The soundstage, the bass, it's so sexy. Seriously the best sounding TWS. Has similar space to svanar but thumper bass and better volume with a touch more warmth.

So much better than the mystique and more refined than the fokus pro. Here's my rundown now of the faves all I own:

1. Noble fokus prestige
2. Status anc3
3. Svanar
4. Denon Perl Pro
5. Momentum TWS 3
6. B and o EX
7. Geekfly g10

Then one plus pro, beats fit pro, the old nobles, etc.

nice to hear. I was initially contemplating on getting the prestige but they're so chunky that wearing them would make me look like frankenstein.

No reason in hindsight. Just fomo on features but never ended up using the advanced stuff and room simulations anyway. So Sennheiser one works perfectly really

This is awesome. I myself ordered the BT-W5 the other week to be unboxed tomorrow, initially purchased to use my DPP with my PC.

I'm going to crack onto this for sure. 👍

Where would you put the Mystique on this list?

My twx9 arrived yesterday… I’ve been using Airpods Pro 2 until now and previously Samsung Buds 2 Pro. Absolutely no complaints, the latter ones are excellent choices. Just with their limited codecs… no aptx, using them on windows pc is not optimal.
Glad twx9 actually sounds good, can be sibilant on lesser recordings but most of the time I really enjoy them. Reminds of mrs7b but with better bass extension and overall smoother sound.

Well I am not done yet, ordered Freebuds Pro 3 🫣

Speaking of the sound only, is there a big difference between the momentum true wireless 3 and the technics az60?
