After seeing some terrible EQ recommendations for the Sony WF-1000XM5 online, I'd thought I'd use my account I haven't used in years here (see that join date lol)
Been 'in the game' too long and I was annoyed at those people not using an EQ to y'know, equalise.

Please use this instead

Based off:
the Soundguys Headphone preference curve vs the WF-1000XM5
Sony Clearbass setting frequency response graph
A/B comparison with KALI AUDIO LP-8 speakers, which do not deviate in frequency response based on speaker angle, height and room acoustics much vs other speakers, whilst being intended for studio monitoring.



Yes, due to how Sony Clear Bass behaves and the WF-1000XM5's deviation from the Soundguys curve, you have to compensate for it by lowering the setting, which increases the sub bass, as the mid and high bass isn't masking it anymore and it flows right through to 400Hz, conveniently the first frequency setting on the EQ.

k thx bye.

Thanks, it really sounds good!

Would you be able to share some tips regarding EQ-ing in general, based on your long experience? I would really appreciate it!

Does anyone know the code name for the EP-NI1010 (it's the code name for the black stock tips) but in silver?

Got the technics\panasonic tips ( PNZSEAZ60K) and the search is over, the xl version fits me very good. spinfit cp100\360 also worked but the rubber is a little stronger on the technics. The spinfit 360 is a little shorter and speak to function activates easily, but with technics\cp100 the speak to actually works better. Can cough, sneeze and count to 2 before it activates.

How does clear bass behaves?
Can you share a sample graph?
Thanks

Anyone compared the Azla max to the ASMR version?

I bought the Asmr mainly beacuse the total white hospital look doesn't suit me.
But I found that are pretty good if I want a damn good seal.
I can reach the perfect seal with all sizes (m, ml, l) instantly after wearing the phones, and goes totally vacuum.

This also means more bass (maybe slightly too much) and definately a better sound. Seems less harsh in the upper mids/treble.


I just sent Sony to hell after they told me that in Italy the tips aren't sold yet...after months from release they don't provide tip replacements.

They must be nuts.

Moreover 25€ for a single pair (i assume some price of the xm4) is insane.

I was thinking to send them back and take the Sennh MTW4

Just in case anyone was wondering, no the XM5s will not survive the washing machine and dryer.

Sucks, sorry to hear, but honest mistake

Thanks for "testing" and informing - sorry for your loss

That happened with my Technics. I sent them in under warrenty and I got a new pair, no questions asked

Or you can try purchase protection from your credit card

Worth a try! Unfortunately, I paid using my Paypal Credit account so no purchase protection. I did buy an Allstate warranty but specifically states no accidental damage, spills etc. I'll start with Sony.

I bet you Sony will do it, just say they stopped working. Not that went for a spin. Good luck.

On their way back to Sony! Thanks for the advice!
