Currently own the Sony WH-1000XM3 which have been great, was planning on upgrading to the XM5. I had a chance to try the XM5 on, the pads sit on the outside of my earlobes, which is no good for me. Though they are light, after some time, they will no doubt start to cause discomfort for me.

I've had my eyes on the new Sennheisers being released in August, so hopeful they'll have a better fit, like the Momentum 3's.

On my new Sennheiser Momentum 3 wireless mode does not work. When you turn on "No connection" and do not go into pairing mode. Can this be fixed somehow?

Have you installed the Sennheiser app's ?

To check the devices list

I also think you need to press a few seconds (maybe 5) the closest button from USB-C port.

Mine tells "no connections" only when I plug the analog audio cable...

That's just the point, the audio cable is not connected, but they think that it is connected

For the first time I see that the equipment was made in Romania, usually everything is "Made in China / Taiwan / Korea". Who has these headphones also made in Romania?

Sennheiser has opened a factory in Romania a few years ago.

It's a good thing, that they're manufactured "internally" (vs contracting them to an OEM/ODM of choice).

Mine are also made in Romania, btw. I'm not aware of Momentum 3 Wireless manufactured elsewhere.

Sennheiser headphones are no longer made in China. They have manufacturing in both Romania & Ireland. Romania makes some of the lower end products and all premium headphones are made in Ireland. Until recently (presumably to the end of production) the Momentum 3 have been made in Romania. It is possible that the Momentum 4 production will be moved to Ireland.

Anything Made in Japan tend to be of better quality in build and material.

That's a bit of a leap...

I'd say that was accurate maybe 20-40 years ago...

Still valid.... you're interpreting Japanese Economic decline with product quality.
It's ingrained in their Custom to do everything as best as possible, anything less is a lost of Face, unlike Western workers who's only interest is end of shift >>>>>>>>>>lager lager lager.

Most people doesn't have easy access to purchase Japanese Domestic Market only products, they have tendency to keep all the best for themselves with a mentality that it's too good for the Western White Devils.

 

[JaiSAn]

That's a bit of a leap...

Just saying......if I were to buy the same television model, same car model, headphones et al, I'd opt for Japanese manufacture. If it's made in anywhere else, I'd give it a miss....

Absolutely not true, the economic decline of Japan doesn't affect at all my perceived quality of "Japanese goods"
