Any idea how the 5909 sounds compared to other traditional open back headsets around the same price (i.e. HD800)?

Is No. 5909 worth 200$ more then B&O H95 to you ears ? And what is the comparison in the loudness level?
I assume H95 has better (more deep) bass, little bit less in sounstsge and in separation but overall outstanding headphones, better build quality, battery, case...
What do you think?

So far, I think this is the best review I've read of the No. 5909, in terms of comprehensiveness and sound quality depiction.

I wonder how it compares to N90q sound-wise, since these seem to be the only ANC audiophile grade headphones

I owned the N90Q for two years, but I never really was a fan of its sound and eventually traded it. I haven't listened to the No. 5909, but my impression is that it is garnering a better reception than the N90Q did many years ago.I wonder how it compares to N90q sound-wise, since these seem to be the only ANC audiophile grade headphones

I imagine the H95 slam and intensity will be a dirty pleasure the No5909 can't achieve.
I wonder how the No5909 are in bass slam.
Looking to purchase a pair of Mark Levinson 5909 wireless headphones for travel purposes. PM me if you have a pair that you would like to part with. My local supplier has ran out unfortunately but a well kept pre-owned pair would also be fine
Wa seems like supply for the MLs is really quite limited

Got these bad boys about a week ago. Spent about 20-30 hours with them so far, so if you guys have any questions let me know. I realize it’s my first post on here but I am a frequent lurker, just never thought I had much to add. Anyways you name it I’ve got it ANC Wireless Over Ear Cans wise. I have the H95, Aonic 50, Momentum 3, PX7, Bose 700 and the APM. I might have an addiction. Nevertheless, these are far and away the finest pair I now own and I will end up selling the rest. I understand they are 1000$ but I mean, worth every penny. I am bad at generally writing about stuff so if anyone has pointed questions, that would be easier.

What are you considering leakage? Like if I have them on my head can anyone around me hear what I am hearing? Faint but not really. I am convinced no matter what there will always be a small bit. At least the way my office is set up I have no issues with anyone to my left or right hearing my headphones. So yes, but also no. Less leakage than the Momentum 3 or Aonic 50, about even to the H95 and a bit more than the APM or Bose.Is there any sound leakage?

Thanks. If the leakage is about the same as the H95, I have the answer I need.
