How does the sound compare between the wired Forza and BeatsX? I'm sensitive to a treble push so which has the less fatiguing treble between the two?

 
I really can't tell you as I only had the Beats X for a few days before I returned them.  Right when they were released so it's been almost two months since I've heard them.  I do remember that I didn't find either particularly fatiguing.  The Forza which I use at the gym currently is less fatiguing than my stay at home pair, the VSONIC GR07X.  Those are quite a bit more bright.

I don't think you will find any treble push in the BeatsX. The treble is very subdued on those.

I agree with this assessment.

I thought I would report back on my RBH purchase and I am very pleasantly suprised a bit of treble push and I am going to miss my oppo headphone amp but these RBH bluetooth sounds very very good indeed..Wish i could get a touch more volume out of them they do not rock as much as I would like...

Glad you liked them. They are my go to set for many situations.

Grabbed a pair of BeatsX for $121 today. Had to get gray for the sale price but that was my second choice color-wise anyway. Comfortable and well-made. Perfect wireless AAC quality and connectivity I've come to expect out of W1 headphones. The most balanced Beats headphone yet with a well-extended bass, clear mids, and the most treble articulation I've heard out of a Beats headphone. Also came with a $30 iTunes/Apple Music gift card. They're quality wireless in-ears.

I'd still gladly try Forza through an evaluation pair but couldn't really beat the deal and wanted a running pair now that the weather is nice enough.

So this was interesting.

[clerkpalmer]

Indeed. Think I'll pass though at that price.

 

[Thesonofkrypton]

That's a preorder rather in stock surely, with no in hand box shots.
 
Surprising to see they're going to be 250usd.  So i can only assume it's about 200gbp which is almost double of the jaybirds x3 here.

Not entirely sure, says delivers between tomorrow and Tuesday so it appears they are in hand? Hopefully, that means they are almost ready to go.  If I'm paying full price, would rather buy from VModa direct or Amazon.

 

[dbdynsty25]

180 retail price from what I've heard.

 

[Thesonofkrypton]

Ah okay, that's a little better.

So no one is going by this anymore?

  So no one is going by this anymore?
 

Nope, V-Moda isn't even going by that as the link doesn't do anything other than re-direct you to the Metallo Wireless page where you can give V-Moda your e-mail and watch the release date change (it now says "Available Spring").

In case anyone else is tired of waiting, these look like nice alternatives.
