Hi people,
I don't often post a thread but after conducting a thorough "Web Research" for the past two weeks I had to ask for your guys' advise.
So as you can understand from the topic my next purchase will be a pair of BT mouse canceling headphones. I have the new wired Beats studio so this is not an option and I have theJBL e40- no ANC and not a true audiophile level phones.
At first I was urged to buy the Zik 2.0. I had tried them once in a store and I was really impressed by their noise cancelation combined with clear highs and a nice kicking bass. In addition, I liked the whole "touch pad" feature and they're unique beautiful design (in my view). And the think that really got my interest was the DSP control app.
BUT, after a few days I came to the conclusion their cons:
1. Ridiculously short battery time..
2. The pace they release new models (I really don't see why the 3.0 should cost $250-$350 more then the 2.0).
3. I realized my jbl Bte40 has a "semi-touch" panel..
And now the most important issue: Parrot are famous for manufacturing Drones. Great drones but still... No other new player came in and raised the bar for all the long trusted companies.
Then I set my eyes on the Bang and Olufsen H8 - I have admired B&O forever and their new line of affordable yet uncompromising products has strengthened my conviction( the A8 Bluetooth speaker is one of the best if not the best speaker.
So now I looked for reviews but because they're new I could only base my case on the reviews of the h6 and h7 although this is a whole different ball-game...
So the fact it's not yet widely reviewed is a disadvantage, since although the Brand is super hot it's still I. It's early verges of this generation's products.
+ they're expensive enough for me to be sure before buying.
So after I couldn't decide between the two I digged deeper into the sennheiser momentum wireless 2.0 and saw the consensus is that although they're a bit expensive they offer great sound and ANC and have the wire connection ability which is a must.
Sorry for the long post- it's been frustrating - oh the trouble I cope with lol
Thanks
