Headphoneus Supremus
@dweaver we must have bought ours around the same time as I was trawling HeadFi for feedback and experiences, I just found all your posts on the wireless thread and the link to your thread. I'm happy to see you started this thread, it's great to have a specific one to help get the best out if them.
I've always favoured a solid wired connection and always probably will for my more critical listening but have found occasions I can listen to podcasts/audiobooks/music at work but frequently need to interact with other people so having to pull my phone out of my pocket hit pause and take a wired iem out is a major hassle. Also we are still on occasion having to wear masks in my country so they would often get caught up so I decided to go for a nice wire free option - having a long history with Sony they were an easy choice being of a smaller design.
These are my first wireless buds so I have nothing to compare to but am really enjoying them and all the conveniences they offer, plus a couple more. Sound-wise I've been spoilt by my IER-Z1R, and even the Blon-01 they are replacing but they are definitely a satisfying listen although I notice a step down. They are serving me very well for their original intended purpose but I have also found they make phone calls a cinch with a better than expected canceling of external noise. Dozing off is a nice thing to experience without the worry of strangling myself with a cable or damaging connectors, unfortunately I had a rude awakening being told the battery was low.
A bonus for me is the noise canceling as even when not listening to anything I have found the peace they bring quite soothing when I need to step away from the noise the world makes.
