Hi All,
 
I've read pretty much every page on here as much as I can about over ear bluetooth headphones and still can't decide which one. Budget isn't really an issue I just want the best sound quality over ear bluetooth headphones. I've briefly tried the Sennheiser M2 wireless over ears which were good but didn't WOW me. I've heard that the B&W P7 wireless are one of the best sound quality headphones you can get but the comfort level is pretty poor. Otherwise I've read mixed reviews on the B&O H9s. The Sony MDR 1000x and the Bose Q35 I read are terrible in sound quality compared to the B&W P7 wireless. Not really fussed if the headphones have ANC... would be nice but most important factor to me is just sound quality. I gather that if you want sound quality then wireless isn't the way to go but I do fancy the convenience of having wireless headphones. Any thoughts/ideas would be greatly appreciated. Unfortunately I live pretty rural so there's no shops I can just try various models.

The P7 is the best-sounding wireless headphone I have heard. There is also the AKG K845BT, which is good. Beyond those two, there are not a lot of BT phones that are designed for sound quality. Most don't take SQ into account at all. If you are really looking for the best sound, then unfortunately, you are looking at a wired headphone. That's just just the current state of the market.  ---)
