if you mean for the N700NC it is 0.2.7 and the app is 2.5(24)
The out of the box signature of the N700NC is leaner than the HP50 which has more forward and warmer vocals. But I played with headphone app EQ and was able to get them to sound pretty similar but it required a much more severe EQ curve than the one I showed in my review. The good news is the EQ app isn't to extreme in how it works so even though the new curve looks severe it doesn't sound off. It just increases the mids to an level like the HP50.
The other option would be to get the HP70 which by default sounds quite a bit like the HP50. But be aware the ANC is not quite as good as the N700NC or 1000XM3. It also has more of a edge to it in the upper midrange and lower treble which can be a bit strident. On a positive note the HP70 while actually slightly smaller physically than the HP50 is much more plush and comfy on the head.
Here is a couple pictures of me wearing the HP70.
i thought this thread is for the XM3
