I am in the U.S, have any idea where I would be able to find a pair of the Philips Fidelio M2BT? How do the Bose Soundlink on-ears compare?

No, no idea. I live in EU.
I asked anyway the Shop where I bought them. If they say they can ship to US I let you know.
I can only suggest you to look for them in the UK Ebay and UK Amazon and ask each seller if they ship to US.
The Bose were my choice when I compared them with the Fidelio M1BT.
This was because of the better portability and more features (like Multipoint and Voice Prompts) and the annoying long click needed by the Fidelio to turn them off.
The fact is, I missed the sound of the Fidelio and I decided to give them another try with the new model.
The new model sound almost identical to the old, actually. It may have even better basses and a new DSP to improve Soundstage, but I cannot confirm because I cannot directly compare with the old.
Which does not care anyway, the new is better because it offers also Multipoint like the Bose.
The Fidelio are anyway still portable enough, although not foldable. Have APTX (and if you have an APTX enabled music player you will notice the difference. Deeper Bass, Crispier Highs, more detail).
Have NFC (not a big deal, but, well, they have it).
I have compared so many headphones lately.
I am sorry to say, the Bose do not impress me anymore.
They sound "turned off" (=not lively) compared with so many headphones (mostly with APTX).
They DO sound good. They DO improve with EQ.
They are overall quite balanced. And very comfortable, and with other cool Pros.
But, the Fidelio just sound BETTER. Have more Soundstage, more detail, the best basses of ALL the Headphones I tried, and although without EQ they may lack some mids and some highs, you can EQ them with very good results, and if you donÄt EQ them you still get used to their sound (I did, to the point that after a while I was not shure anymore that I wanted to EQ the Highs).
But no matter how much you EQ the Bose, you do not get used to their basses once you hear those of the Fidelio.
So, I never miss the Bose. But I do miss the Fidelio.
Hope this helped.
Giogio,
Do you have any issues with Bluetooth connection on devices that do not support aptx? Some of the reviews I have read state they had issues with Bluetooth connections on devices that do not support aptx.
Anyone try the plantronics backbeat pro? I just ordered a set and would like to hear your impressions.
Giogio,
Can you provide any insight to the Phiaton MS 530s? They looks great and I found a pair locally that I can test out. How is SQ, Build, Comfort, Features? I dont care about ANC too much so its good it can be turned on and off. But they look great and have BT 4.0 and APTX, your thoughts?
I have my galaxy note 3 phone and galaxy note 12.0 tablet both have aptx. I have read alot of reviews on the bb pros all positive, but I like to hear impressions from normal regular folk, getting opinions from industry people in the business is easy to do...
Have you tried out the Pendulumic Stance S1+? I just got them and am listening to them but have not been able to connect them to an APTX enable source (just my Lumia 1520 which is awaiting a software update to enable APTX). So far I think they are only OK compared to my amped Beyerdynamic 600ohm DT990's that I'm used to at home. If my $10 Creative EP-630 earbuds are a 2/10, and my DT990's are 9/10, then I'd say these are like a 6.5/10 with not using APTX. I'm hoping that APTX would bring them up to about a 8/10 in terms of my subjective ratings.
Just curious is you've tried them out to compare sound quality!
Hey my budget is no more than 100 euros... And in my research I find out that Jabra Revo wireless might be in a sweet spot. Do you have any advice of a Bluetooth headphones (not in ear), with mic, nice battery life, confort and good sound quality, that cost less than 100€? What would you advice me?
Thanks
