Been a while since I checked in with this thread but wanted to do a follow up both as an update, but also as a thank you to the people who helped me out in making my decision since I'm an utter noob.
@Giogio - After all your help with my decision making for a set of bluetooth over ears, I ended up buying a pair of BBP as well as the older Logitech UE 9000's. After playing around with both for a couple weeks, I ended up keeping the UE 9000's and returning the BBPs. It was a close call for me primarily because I think aesthetically the UE 9000s are kind of gross and I look like an air traffic controller wearing ear muffs when wearing them. That being said, I preferred the way they sounded and loved the heavy bass so I decided to keep them. I've been listening to a ton of house, electro house, deep house and I just really like the bass. Also because I got a fairly good price on it. Anywho, I apologize if this isnt going to be of much help to anyone else buying, but again, really wanted to come back and say thank you to you guys for the help and update things with my purchase!
To be honest, I agree with you.
But as said, in my comparisons I try to consider all factors, not my tastes.
I prefer the sound of the UE9000 over the BBP. Same reason mostly, the bass.
I loved the UE9000, if they will be cheaper one day, much cheaper, I could buy them as sentimental reason.
But they are so damn heavy, after a few hours the headband was crushing my head.
Personally I think that the Fidelio M2BT are a better choice. They sound almost identical to the UE9000. Specially in the bass.
But are more beautiful, have more functions, and are much more comfortable.
Unfortunately, they are not worth 400U$D. I would never buy them for more than 300.
And they have a few problems which I have pointed out in my review.
But, well, enjoy your UE9000, they are a legend...
If you will ever need another one, try the Audio Technica ATH-WS99BT.
They have a different bass, but it is a really excellent and very powerful one. Also because the impact of the 53mm drivers at high volume is huge.
And the sound is overall just, well, just much better than anything I have heard till now.
The range of frequency, the way they perform in all frequencies... The detail. Really amazing headphones.
They even have a cable with mic, and with volume and track control.
Only two problems: they leak some sound, and they have thin earpads which make people with protruding ears have the ear touching the plastic of the driver. For those people an upgrade of earpads is needed.
Unfortunately there is no other perfectly compatible earpad, so, most people use the Brainwavz HM5 which are actually oval, so on the vertical axis they do not seal perfectly. But people say they are much much more comfortable so, the ear fit entirely inside, the velour is much better than the leatherette, and for some people the sound even improves a bit.
I personally have found another one which I am going to try before I eventually go with the HM5. If it works, I will let people know, because it is round and have exactly the same measures. But it is not much thicker.
So, its bass... It is more powerful than the Fidelio and the UE9000, but have just a tiny less body and depth on the very low sub bass.
Still, I am very satisfied.
Then there is the Bang & Olufsen BeoPlay H8, I have it here now, so I could compare them side by side.
The H8 is, well, similar to the Fidelio, very much. The bass is just a tiny bit less warm and less amazing, but is still very very good.
Before suggesting them anyway I must wait for the replacement.
Mine has got a very bad distortion on heavy bass tracks at loud volume when the ANC is active (and with cable is always active).
WIth this problem, it is a no go. Specially at 500 Euro!
I'll write a brief review now and will keep it updated.
