Okey, so I got new bike and wind reduction is Okey during riding. Not perfect but still; I don't listen music, and I have my headphones on my head only to reduce wind when I rideduring my morning commute on the bike.

Has anyone listened to both the Mark Levinson N° 5909 and the H95? How do they compare?
I have the ml 5909 for 8 days. I don't have my h95 because I selling this already, but I comparing the 2 headphones for 2 days.
In my comparison of the 2 headphones I deciding keeping the 5909. The main reason is the better sound.
The h95 is still a very good headphone, but for the first time, with the 5909, I'm hearing a headphone that isn't only giving me better sound than the h95, but in wireless mode is good like a very good wired headphone.
The design, the size (more convenient for travelling), the construction quality and the features (specially the really excellent volume wheel and play/pause and skip back/forward touch controls) and battery life are better in the h95. But the sound, little better comfort, better more practical travel case and better accessories are better in 5909. The 5909 too is sounding excellent in passive (wired) mode (the h95 isn't possible using in real passive mode).
About the sound, the 5909 is more correct, is more balanced than the h95, with less deep bass but still excellent bass, better mids and treble performance, specially the treble. The soundstage of the 5909 is similar of a open back headphone, this is a big surprise. The extraction of details in the 5909 is in different level of all other wireless headphones I hearing before.
The transparency of the h95 is little better and I think the anc of both headphones is very similar.

I’m using a Dragonfly Red DAC with my iPhone 12 and Apple Lossless files. Is there any improvement in SQ when going to a Dragonfly Cobalt if the H95 is just going to process the analog signal again?

I think there is no improvement. just different sound signature. red has a fun signature and cobalt has more calm signature. and your h95 has a very good dac already.I’m using a Dragonfly Red DAC with my iPhone 12 and Apple Lossless files.

@fenjen, @angelom
I owe you an apology. it actually works!
That day I updated the firmware, set the wind reduction "on" and went out to test it.
It didn't seem to change anything, so I put it aside and forgot about it.
However, I tested it again today and it works pretty well!
It could be that the app/headphone needed a power cycle. Also, I noticed that if you have the wind reduction "on" and change the level of noise cancellation from the headphone, it turns it automatically off. So maybe that day I had it off without realising it.

Just got this HP today, my previous setups are Sony's WH-1000XM3, WF-1000XM3&4, Shure's SE846 (with different DACs), Sennheiser's MTW1&2, and IE300.
Got to say B&O's H95 are way better, but way, way better than any of my previous experiences, listening to David Gilmour's Live at Pompeii while writing this and oh my god the difference, details haven't heard before, the sound is crisp as it can be, really enjoying this.

I’ve been having a problem with my H95s turning off after around an hour and a half when wired and also BT connected. My local agent says that it’s my Dragonfly Red DAC that I’m using with an iPhone 12 and Apple camera adapter. Turning the headphones off and in again restarts the music and reconnects to BT.
Has anybody else has this problem?

Update: Same issue with a Fiio X5iii so it’s not the Dragonfly, unlike what B&O told my agent. The agent lent me another H95 and it’s dropped a couple times so I’m beginning to suspect software issues.

Is there any option on android phone how to remove EU limiter with H95 headphones to make them louder? Does "Bluetooth absolute volume-enabled" makes any difference in volume? Or desabled? Or is there any volume limiter option? Tnx
Better for you if you don't gonna listen louder

A small question re the H95s. Say in a couple of years' time when the battery inevitably dies and can't hold its charge anymore, would the USB-C wired mode still be able to drive the headphones? It would be a shame if it becomes a paperweight..
