Too true... And the battery life is unfortunate too. But I bet the next iteration of it will be great, until then I'll stick to my wired headphones into my practice amp
🔴Hey everyone, I hope you dig this demo video - it was pretty difficult to demonstrate the sound you hear with the headphones, but I hope you get the idea. For the record, I've still been using these everyday to practice songs for upcoming gigs and learning stuff on TH-cam - all without bothering anybody lol! *ALSO - Yes, you can simultaneously use Bluetooth audio with the guitar amp sound so you can jam along to streaming music, TH-cam videos, etc.
It's not difficult, it's just down to how you recorded it. You could have gotten much better demos useing a couple of shoe boxes and kitchen towels, hint..
Hi cool demo I don’t think I heard you say anything about a line out feature. Is it possible to record into say a desk or laptop via an external out feature from the earphones? Cheers
To my ears these 3rd Gen Air pods are more comfortable compared to the newer Pro version with the soft gel tips. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxgl8SzyQoymMu-S3V55Dskg5QJ8xr1yCR That said, compared to the 3rd Gen, I notice these do not stay planted in the ear as well. One design issue I think, is you squeeze the stem and click it twice to advance your songs. On 3rd gen you tap the large speaker. The difference is by grabbing the stem each time, you tend to loosen the bud fit in your ear. Not always, but the bud falls out a few times while running. The old tap to change never had that problem for me. I would not have changed that tap function. That said, the newer Pro version sticks in the ear, almost airtight if you want that. I do not like that Airtight fit. So that's why I'd stay with this version as the best trade off of comfort, use, and overall feel.
Appreciate seeing you demo these. I like the wireless ability to practice without bugging the rest of the family. It's one thing for me to play/jam with one of my small combo's, a whole other thing for someone to listen to me trying to figure out an 8 sec part of a song and playing it over and over and over again. Haha.
You seem like a really chill guy! Sounds like what I need as a family man and wireless is even better! I just bought some Audio Technicas for 150 CAD at Walmart lol and I only get sound in right ear, plugged into Valve VT40X... and that's how I ended up here! Subbed and look forward to more!
Cool idea for a product and great review. I wish companies would really consider standardized replaceable batteries in these products. If the product itself lasts a few years, the batteries certainly won’t retain their full capability. And then what? Headphone shaped paperweight in your closet.
Glad Sweetwater got yours to you quickly. I ordered mine on 12/6 and the best they can tell me is “we will ship when we get more”. Normally that would irritate me, but this time, I’m taking it as a good sign that these things are BAD ASS.
Another thing that is that the connector won't work with all the guitars. I checked out Mary Spender's preview/review of it and she mentions 2-3 guitars that by default won't work with it and you need some extension for it. So before buying it make sure you might be in the clear, or buy an extension for it's bulky design. Great review, impressive how you managed to get us to hear the result!
These things are awesome. They resolve my two main practice problems: damn near perfect amps that don’t have installed headphone jacks and crappy fake guitar tone through any installed (or wired via interface) headphones. I need headphones because my neighbors have sensitive eardrums. Sure this product could be less expensive but honestly I’d probably pay more than $400 for this type of surround realistic guitar tone. I’m thinking the future versions will have more user friendly options (dual charging cable, better battery life, actual specific pedal/amp choices, carrying case, more expensive feeling interface materials, in ear option vs on ear, etc) but I’d expect the price to increase because of those upgrades.
Agreed. I love mine but it also feels like there are some low hanging fruit for Boss to add or clean up that would make it even better. The app is awful and makes it so I never want to use it much. On the one hand that's actually a good thing because I don't tweak I just play, but sometimes it does feel like you're missing out on some fun by hating tweaking via the app.
Expensive but worth it for convenience and being able to play without bothering others and still sounding great to the user. I rarely play any of my instruments without headphones; guitars, keyboards, Roland V- drums. Love em all. But I’m also just a play at home recluse.
Holy shit, your rigged set up worked to perfection. I’d probably just use it like a normal stereo set, but that’s a cool feature and the fact that you managed to show it is ridiculous. See, I knew having an RJ shirt was well warranted. See ya in a month homie!! -Aaron
I got mine 2 weeks ago and I'm REALLY enjoying them. Initially, I had a little difficulty connecting with my Android phone, but after a few tries it was good to go and haven't had any issue since. I second your opinion on it needing a headphone case... especially given the price point. Other than that, they really sound awesome.
Nice one thanks for this demo! Very tasty playing as always! Was wondering, do you know if it's possible to stream audio in to the headphones via bluetooth and simultaneously here your guitar... so one can practice to backing tracks for example? Many thanks again, really enjoying your videos! :)
Most of the complaints seem legit - not enough bang for the buck. I hope Boss is paying attention. This seems like a great product with lots of potentional. I'm going to hold off to see what upgrades are made, but I am watching.
All these kinds of products should use rechargeable batteries otherwise, after a certain amount of use, battery life will get worse and eventually bad enough to send the entire unit to landfill. Also headphones should have included some kind of aux out for recording purposes.
Hi & Merry Christmas to you and your family. As just a practice amp would you recommend this or the Yamaha THR II line? Thanks and continued success in 2020. Brian
OMG, OMG, OMG! I've just bought a pair, and you left out (actually you didn’t. EDIT) the VERY most important part! Seems that the app connects to the phone / tablet thru Bluetooth midi, which means that you can still connect at the same time with Bluetooth audio! Another words you can play backing tracks into the phones while you play! The headphones can even apply effects to the tracks, so that you hear a band behind you, and they sound like their on the same stage. Think Motley Crue behind you in an arena, or RJ next to you in a more intimate venue... seriously the best part of this incredible device. For those who take online lessons, you can watch the video and stream the audio...and your wife will never know! Thanks for the review RJ!
Hi Christian. Do you have any latency if you are watching a youtube video? Like you are watching a lesson in youtube and the sound comes with latency. If you say no, I am ordering one right now.....Thanks
Jose Acosta I’m pretty sure the tiny amount of latency won’t matter on what is being streamed - unlike when trying to play guitar using Bluetooth headphones. I stream TH-cam and other video audio to the Boss Katana Air and play guitar using the same 2.4 ghz system this uses - works fine.
@@zzrwood thanks for the response. I use Boss WL20 to connect guitar and amp and it is just perfect, so I assume this system will work the same between guitar and headphones. My concern is the bluetooth connection between phone and headphones. .i would have said that there would be a fair amount of latency there but according to your experience it seems not to be material. I am going to start putting the coins in a jar.....
Hey guys, I can check tomorrow, but I stream TH-cam into Bluetooth headphones every night with very little lag. I have tried building a Bluetooth guitar, and the ONLY way that it comes close to playable is with the AptX codec, meaning both transmitter and receiver need to have that codec built in. For one way streaming, music is no problem, and audio with video is barely perceptible...
Let me ask you a couple of questions. First of all, is it possible to record your performance on the device while playing of it? My second question is, is there any output hole on this device. Thanks in advance
Hey R.J., to my ears, you are one of the most versatile and accomplished guitar youtuber out there. My question here is all about regular headphones. I've tried a few of the headphones I use for youtube and ipad. The guitar stuff sounds great. But when I use those same headphones through my Spark or Blackstar amps, they sound like crap compared to what comes out of the speakers. What kind of headphones should we be looking for if we want to come the closest to the sound of our amps? Thanks.
I'm tempted. But if you don''t mind the wire and you already have a digital amp or a computer with an audio interface to plug into, $400 will buy some hella nice conventional headphones.
Dude, that static is crazy! I'm just listening on my phone and can hear how it reacts to it. I didn't want it before but I'll be damned if I don't buy it when this all goes back to normal.
this seems so cool. i am a flight attendant and would love to be able to practice on layovers. im thinking of getting the blackstar carry on. this should work with it right?
Nice review, R.J.! Thanks for taking the time to capture its sound. Having had a Katana before, I feel that these would be an Insta-Buy if you could turn off the Katana amp sim and run your own amp sim (Fractal, Helix, etc) into the effects & ambient simulation tech onboard. Wireless headphones for practice are a golden idea, I just don’t gel with the Katana sound. Too bad. If any other manufacturers are reading this, please consider this golden opportunity 😉😄
You can do exactly that. Watch the Andertons video. They run a pedalboard through the headphones by plugging the wireless transmitter into the output and setting the headphone amp to flat/acoustic mode. That way you can run a helix/kemper/whatever through the headphones and still get the ambient stuff
RJ, Great review, thanks for posting this. Question for you or anyone else, I know these headphones are not stereo but do they have stereo affect or stereo simulation in some of the effects like delay or Flanger or reverb. For exampleCan you turn on ping pong delay and hear it go back and forth between each year? Thanks again!
The Captain plugged the transmitter into the amp side of his pedal board… and it seemed to work. It looked like he still ran cable to guitar (like normal). Might want to check out their review to see details.
@@paulsimmons8444 if I were gonna buy them as a practice tool... I wouldnt want to have to drag another pedal along with these headphones.to my couch.. IMO ... Im thinking I could get bluetooth headphones to the out of my amphead and do the same thing for practice... I dunno.. Im just thinking out loud..
@@neastguy you could but they sound nothing like any other headphone experience. They are way less fatiguing and make it feel like you are in a big room by yourself with your amp cranked. I have had a few friends say that it felt like right when soundcheck is dialed and you are at full volume. My playing is different in these headphones. I play like I am on stage at all times which for me isn't the case at home. Price seems high until you spend a week with them. Not sure how a looper would work in them without a separate pedal. How would you trigger the loop on and off? Learning songs has become infinitely better and jamming to backing tracks on youtube makes you feel like you are apart of the song more. The problem with bluetooth headphones out of your amp is that the sounds slams you directly in the ears. These don't. There is space and feeling in the Waza's which I have never heard from any other headphone source. Find a shop that has a demo set and try them out for yourself.
@@TheMrMulligans so the headphone experience is better then usual? At home I normally play with headphones on my Kemper (and before that a Pod HD500x) but the headphone sound is always pretty dry en fuzzy.
Vincent Zacht yes I do the same through my DAW or my two notes and it’s insanely different. The WAZA-Airs actually mimic room and stage feel. The sound doesn’t shoot straight at your eardrums, it fills the space around your head. It’s 100% different than normal headphones for sure. They are unreal.
Those headphones are so damn cool but they're just way too expensive. Why would I get those for 400€ if I can get a Boss Katana and pair of great regular headphones for the same or even less?
I get what you are saying but they are different products. I have a both the waza air and a katana 100mk2. Does it make sense the headphones are pricier? No. But they are still a great tool to study and i play much more thanks to them.
My only complaint (and its a small one) the transmitter is kinda jutting out from the guitar…. I could totally see myself getting all into it and breaking that off…
07/24/2020: Hello, Tom from Orlando Florida. What is the dB level? I already have Tinnitus, so ai do not wish to damage my ears anymore. The following information was copied and posted here: Decibels & Damage Sound is measured in units called decibels (dB). Sounds of less than 75 decibels, even after lengthy exposure, are unlikely to cause hearing loss. However, extended or repeated exposure to sounds at or above 85 decibels (approximately the level of a vacuum cleaner) can cause hearing loss.
Do I have to use the on board modeling and FX? I'd rather plug the transmitter into the headphones out of the Helix.... or even into the headphones out of a focusrite interface. I imagine that should work. If so, would that 360°, amp behind you feature still work without using the modeling?
Good video thanks! …Maybe there is a Bluetooth update for the version of Android on your phone?? Also Harbor Freight has mini Apache weather proof hard cases cheap, great for small stuff.
With these, my wife allows me to play guitar with her in The house. It's funny. She used to find it attractive when I played. Same with when I go to work. She used to like my ambition. Anyways, I'm really lucky she let me buy them.
@@Thirst4livingwater Or just dont let a woman take charge of the marriage. People get married thinking that having equal importance in the relationship equals equal leadership roles. When the man, mans up and takes charge, and has a mindset of “I have the final say, I better make sure my decisions are good ones, with her in mind” is where you solve allot of issues with modern marriages. When you have the mindset of “ahaha I get to call all the shots woooooooo freedoooom” is where you have problems. In a good marriage, typically, the man is the leader, protecter, provider (for physical and emotional needs) the woman supports the man. But moderninity preaches that traditional marriage is oppressive to women , so now you have women being men, and men being women in marriage. And thats why modern marriages suck. You have the wrong person filling the wrong role in the relationship where neither are typically any good at the reversed role.

I could not agree more ! But I fear it just a policy from the manufacturers so they can sell you a new product after a few years.
They have considered it, and they'd rather have you buy the new version than continue to use what you already have.

All these kinds of products should use rechargeable batteries otherwise, after a certain amount of use, battery life will get worse and eventually bad enough to send the entire unit to landfill.
Also headphones should have included some kind of aux out for recording purposes.
I agree. the recording feature would make them just irresistible for me.
Good demo! Much better than Anderton's for sure. I want one, even though the price may be a bit high. Thanks for sharing!

My only complaint (and its a small one) the transmitter is kinda jutting out from the guitar…. I could totally see myself getting all into it and breaking that off…
Great video!
can you connect it to laptop? via bluetooth
I have these. Or this. I dunno they’re way over my head as far as how to use them. They sound ok I guess when you get that way too much reverb off
07/24/2020: Hello, Tom from Orlando Florida. What is the dB level? I already have Tinnitus, so ai do not wish to damage my ears anymore. The following information was copied and posted here: Decibels & Damage Sound is measured in units called decibels (dB). Sounds of less than 75 decibels, even after lengthy exposure, are unlikely to cause hearing loss. However, extended or repeated exposure to sounds at or above 85 decibels (approximately the level of a vacuum cleaner) can cause hearing loss.
Super Presentation!!!
also works with pedals as lee anderton pointed out
nearly there for me...I am looking for the same thing but for the output of my sound card and finally be able to record wireless (no lag)
I loved the boss COSM effects. I wonder if any of that platform is in this set?
I'm really diggn that beautiful guitar. Really nice.
@RJ Can you plug the transmitter into your amp and use the head phones to here your own rig. For testing new pedals without having the family go nuts?
What about bass? Can this be used with bass as well or is it just guitar tones?
It’d be cool if the audio you hear can be recorded through an in app built camera or something over a backing track.
Apart from guitar, can these also be used as a standard Bluetooth headphones, by that I mean used to listen to a film or music on an iPad or iPhone?
I love mine but for the $$ they should’ve included a case...
Do I have to use the on board modeling and FX? I'd rather plug the transmitter into the headphones out of the Helix.... or even into the headphones out of a focusrite interface. I imagine that should work. If so, would that 360°, amp behind you feature still work without using the modeling?
I wish they had an output jack or some other type of output method
Wow, that really does sound good. 👍
Could it send an output signal to a Bluetooth amplifier. Would be a good in ear monitor for your instrument in a band setting
R.J., do the headphones have an aux input so that I can play along with your instructional videos?
Good video thanks! …Maybe there is a Bluetooth update for the version of Android on your phone?? Also Harbor Freight has mini Apache weather proof hard cases cheap, great for small stuff.
I am not one for headphones but very impressive features.
Can this be used from my pedalboard? Like plug the transmitter into the output of my last pedal?
What's the price please
With these, my wife allows me to play guitar with her in The house. It's funny. She used to find it attractive when I played. Same with when I go to work. She used to like my ambition.
Anyways, I'm really lucky she let me buy them.
That sucks bro, I’m sorry.
i am glad i’m still young
@@lanemcnally5159 dont ever get married, like my dad use to say... I should have listened
Marriage is there so you can solve problems you wouldn't have alone 😆
@@Thirst4livingwater Or just dont let a woman take charge of the marriage. People get married thinking that having equal importance in the relationship equals equal leadership roles. When the man, mans up and takes charge, and has a mindset of “I have the final say, I better make sure my decisions are good ones, with her in mind” is where you solve allot of issues with modern marriages. When you have the mindset of “ahaha I get to call all the shots woooooooo freedoooom” is where you have problems. In a good marriage, typically, the man is the leader, protecter, provider (for physical and emotional needs) the woman supports the man. But moderninity preaches that traditional marriage is oppressive to women , so now you have women being men, and men being women in marriage. And thats why modern marriages suck. You have the wrong person filling the wrong role in the relationship where neither are typically any good at the reversed role.
Why dont you use the one that youtubers use in AMSR videos? I think it will make a direct sound pick up from that headphone to our ears
I have officially adopted the word ‘doohickey’. Never heard it before today
Can it play mp3s at the same time you're playing to practice with backing tracks?
Can you plug it in at the end of your pedal board? I don't see why not...
No looping. Does a headphone amp exist that includes? I’m still looking.
Can you play with pre-recorded practice tracks with this product?
I’m using it right now
