The most exciting times are when Hifiman announces a new loaner tour. Been part of the HE-500 and Sundara loaner tour. A lot of fun!
Currently, I'm exploring the bluetooth world with Sony wh-1000xm3. Functionally excellent, sound-wise much to be desired. Ananda BT looks like the one to upgrade this department.

Loaner tours are always a welcome opportunity to make some delicious product photos and review new gear. Review will be published on my blog and here on head-fi.

Some sample pictures from my reviews? Here you go:

With so much emphasis seemingly put on true Wireless in ear, not only is it refreshing to see a full size BT headphone, but also one that supports a variety of codecs, can be used wired and with the DAC, but also openback for a potentially full fidelity wire free listening experience at home, or a hotel while traveling for work.

Hi I'd love to try these headphones as Bluetooth headphones are great for me in work as I move around the building a lot as an IT technician. I also own quite a lot of gear (Cayin n8, sp2000, lpgt) and therefore have quite a lot of experience in the hobby.

Hi, I would like to participate in the tour.

Location : Glasgow, Scotland, UK.

I intend to compare them against my Audeze Mobius, both in Bluetooth and USB modes. I'll also check them by connecting it to Audio GD R2R dac using analog mode. My music source range from FLAC, Tidal MQA, YouTube etc., Thanks.

I am a fan of the brand and I’d love to try these to watch movies and play games. I have some cool gear to try it on and since I travel a lot the Ananda BT seems like a perfect candidate to add to my convenient travelling system

I would love to be a part of this loaner tour.

I am yet to hear a pair of Bluetooth headphones that actually sound like a Top-of-the-line headphone should. These seem like a worthy contender in that space and one I would love to experience and write about.

I'd love a chance to try this thing out, should be interesting versus my K701, T90, and HD650. I was in a loaner tour of a Sennheiser Urbanite in the past, and later bought my own after taking a liking to it. I'd be happy to post a review and comparison, too, and comparisons are the much more useful ones as they give readers a point of reference of sorts, something needed when listening impressions are so terribly dependent on the listener, listener's rig, and the listener's experience.

I'd love to participate in this tour as well. I'm a big fan of the Hifiman products, and have had many years of enjoyment with Hifiman house sound from Re-zeros, re-262, HE-400s, He-4xx, and my recently acquired Aryas (which has been my favorite headphone). Would love to hear how these compare to the Aryas and some of my other full-sized and Bluetooth cans.

I can't wait when wireless headphones will enter the quality range of good, wired ones. Sony WH1000-XM3 is close but not there yet IMO. I hope Ananda is better and would love to hear it.
I use Hugo2, Ether C Flows and 64Ears A12 CIEMs on daily basis.

I would like to test the Ananda BT headphones.

I am a big fan of the laid back Hifiman sound. I recently auditioned the Jade II and I made a video review of the Edition X back then:

I'm interested as well. I currently own the wired Ananda and love it. I live in Palo Alto, CA.

Count me in if the tour opens up to Canada. Vancouver BC.
If not hope everyone enjoys them.

Hi everyone.
It seems that I am the first one so it is my sole pleasure to post first pics of the Ananda BT loaner.
@TeamHiFiMAN - thank you very much for letting me participate.

First impressions to follow in the next days.
I am going to listen but not critically as I am going to let them "burn" for about 100 hours.
