      . . . If Only The Sound Was . . .
      Get The SoundCore Space Q45 I Really Enjoy It And Think You Will Too .
      I Listened To My Space Q45 Wired Passively Powered Off With No Issue At All As Soon As I Got Them And The Sound Is Amazing Wired Powered Off . . . . .
      SoundCore Space Q45 My Take
      For Wired Passive Listening I'm Using ZFold3 To Hidizs S9 Pro DAC AMP DONGLE To Space Q45 And WOW AweSomeNess PerSoNiFied .
      The Q45 ANC is really good SoundCores best yet Right Up There With My XM3s .
      The Space Q45 sound while punchy is not as punchy as the Soundcore Life Q35 In The Bass Department .
      The Bass Up Feature can't currently be used with Custom EQs So it's Pointless for my Uses Because I Use My Own In App Custom EQs .
      We Can Listen To These Wired Passively (Powered Off) And The Q45s Sound Absolutely Amazing This Way .
      The LDAC Sounds Really Good And Gives Wired Listening A Run For It's Money .
      We Lose Some Features Of The Life Q35 With The Space Q45 . Hopefully A Firmware Update(s) Will Give These Lost Functions To The Q45 . The Q45s Are Heavier With Much Less Cushioning On The Top Where As The Q35 Are Lighter With More Cushioning On Top So Comfort Goes To Q35 . I've Never Had Any Pain To To Top Of My Head Though Despite The Q45 Having Less Cushioning So No Complaints There .
      Both Q35 And Q45 Have Excellent Sound With The Q45 Punching Hard And The Q35 Punching Harder .
      I Enjoy Them Both . Amazon Had Q35 111 Dollars With Discounts And Q45 129 dollars With Discounts . Not Sure If Discounts Still Active Now But $149.00 For Q45 Is Still A Bargain For Such An AweSomeNess PerSoNiFied Headphone .
      You Can Turn Up The Q45s Bass Using Custom EQs But Nothing I've Done Has Made The Q45s As Punchy As The Q35s .
      For Most I Think You'll Be More Than Happy With The Q45s Bass . I Know I Am .
      A Blue Variant And A White Variant Are Said To Be Forthcoming So I'll Most Def Be Snagging Them In White .

  • @LDavis
    @LDavis ปีที่แล้ว +71

    Great review!
    It's basically impossible to assign a "best" of the group because the audio sample test really exposes the fact that it depends on what the listener prefers and what kind of music they'll be used for.
    If I was only ever going to listen to classical, I'd probably lean toward the Bose. If it was EDM all the time, I'd probably go for the AirPods Max. For loudness and fullness with enough clarity, I'd lean Sony. For all around sound details and clarity and bass, I'd go Sennheiser, even given the lack of loudness in the mids/highs (which is where I think I fall). The Technics are obviously quite capable, but apparently they aren't the best at any one thing, so they're last on the list by default.

      @@robert3994 Yup, I were able to drill down a lot, but still strugling between Momentum 4 and MX5. He probably meant he hate Sony's MX5 Sound Signature. Honestly I just wanted Sony would've given two shits about the design, which is actually way to simple for me. Honestly I prefer MX5's sound way more than Momentum 4 - which doesn't have many EQ options, so, while Sony audio can be deeply customized (which I probably wouldn't do as I'm a basshead), Momentum 4's sound is less flexible, which scares me a but as I'd want to bass it up a bit. Will try other song samples to try to convince myself haha

    These will be great when Sennheiser adds "High-End Sound Tuning" like they did for Momentum 3. With this setting on the latter sound pretty neutral while keeping outstanding clarity and detail.

    • @VeitLehmann
      @VeitLehmann ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I agree! I recently compared the M3 and M4 (along with the B&W PX7 S2), and with High-End Sound Tuning, the mids were a lot flatter and more natural without any resonance on the M3, which made them sound even better than the M4. Comparing the M4 to the PX7 S2, I liked the bass on the M4 better (cleaner, less bloating into the mids, but better low bass extension and tightness and still more energy), but the mids were more pleasant on the PX7 S2 (the M4 have a boosted area which can show as a resonance in some tracks, the PX7 S2 however can be a little bit too polite there). I still just ordered the M4 because of all the other good stuff they offer.

    Nice job. I just subscribed to your channel. I have the Bose 700 and bought the momentum 4’s to try out. To my ear, they sound much better. In terms of noise cancellation, I live in the Boston area, and the momentum’s do fine in the subway. They even cancelled out the noise of my house alarm when I accidentally forgot to turn it off yesterday! I don’t expect the best sound quality from bluetooth headphones. For home listening I prefer my Focal Clears. When I’m out and about, though, the convenience of BT headphones is hard to beat. Wandering around noisy metro Boston area, I just find the momentums’ to be a more engaging listen.

    @Sayid.M 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +8

    I’ve been using the Momentum 4s for the past 3 months and I tell you the sound quality is on a whole new level. I also have the XM5 for about 2 weeks now and have played around with the EQ and it’s significantly better, but still not close to the sound produced by the M4. I travel often so wanted to see the difference in NC between the two. XM5 does have slightly better noise cancelling I must admit. I am really enjoying it now because of that. The fit and comfort is also excellent. Although I can’t say it’s better than the M4 because the M4 has significantly loosened out now after using it and is just as comfortable. I’ve no issues with it. Aside from the sound signature on the M4, I love everything else about it too. The build quality is more solid than the Sony. Honestly in my experience with having these 2 cans, I still prefer the M4 as daily drivers for listening to music. Otherwise the XM5 may be better for travelling. You won’t go wrong with either one.

    After watching many reviews including this one I went for momentum 4 headphones, no regrets at all
    Sound quality is the best and that's the only reason I bought
    Few problems- bluetooth gets disconnected frequently
    Right ear cup has all controls but all of a sudden touch controls don't operate
    Have to take them off and put over again it works

    @VeitLehmann ปีที่แล้ว +28

    Thanks so much for the comparison, and for including the Technics into the mix! This time, I listened with the Beyerdynamic DT 880 600 Ohm, not the PXC 550 that I used before. And I'm shocked how much influence the headphones used for listening has on the results! The Technics often sound so mid-centric, without any sub bass rumble, but wooly upper bass instead. Also a bit shy in the treble and presence area. Still a lot of detail, soundstage and imaging. But all in all, I'm not sure if I prefer them over e. g. the AirPods Max anymore.
    The XM5 sound nice and enjoyable in any genre, but I'm often missing detail. Frequency response is quite nice, but a bit too warm for my taste.
    The Bose 700 again have the Bose sound that I don't like - artificial presence area, hollow mids, shy bass and no sparkle in the treble. Still piercing in e. g. the Rock example, because of missing oomph.
    The AirPods don't sound as shrill on the DT 880, but still show those scooped mids that ruin the Rock example. Details and soundstage are nice.
    The Sennheisers are again my favourites. Now the DT 880 can reproduce the sub bass much better than the PXC 550 could, and I'm shocked again! What is that!? In the Rock and EDM examples, they rattle my head like crazy! I'd have to tune it down so it doesn't overshadow the energy of the guitars, but still, it's fun! And despite all that bass, everything above stays clean and detailed and retains a natural timbre. However, I found them to be a bit underwhelming for the Classical example, not sure what was missing. It sounded somehow flat.
    So I don't have a clear ranking now. I only know that I won't ever like Bose, and that I dig the new Sennheisers. All the others have their strengths and weaknesses, with the Sonys being the most consistent as they don't do anything really wrong, but they aren't the best anywhere either.

      I just received XM5 to compare with Momentum 4, when I'll receive them (on preorded) to decide which may suit me better. Meanwhile I tested them with my current M3. M3 for me lack of comfort, battery life and don't like fisical buttons and was looking for upgrade. XM5 very comfy and nice design, plenty of extra futures, but I was surprised how dull they sound compared to M3, which was released by the end of 2019. There's no need to wait till M4 arrive, XM5 will be send back. In my opinion Bowers & Wilkins PX7 also sound better than XM5, which I had a chance to own.

    • @VeitLehmann
      @VeitLehmann ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@DenisasPupkevicius I also listened to the M3 and found them to sound awesome. Only a bit too bass heavy, but this was easy to adjust. However, I also found their comfort not too good. The earpads were just a bit too small for me. And the ANC was also too weak in comparison. The sound is very different from the PX7, which I also tried, and I liked the M3 way better. The PX7 sounded good, very detailed and wide on many songs, but on some, they showed a nasty peak in the presence area which was not easy to fix. On that same day, I compared them with the Technics EAH-A800, which I liked almost as much as the M3. But as I stated above, the Technics disappointed me quite a bit in this comparison. So my hopes are very high for the M4! I just wished Sennheiser would have kept some of the unique look of the M3. The B&W PX7 S2 however look and sound awesome and also fit very nice on my head. But they also cost quite a bit more.

    Swipe for phone calls makes sense to me. With PXC550 it happened that I've accidently finished call with single tap or answered and finished call immediately by tapping twice in thinking that my first tap was not registered by phone or headphone due to random delay. Swipe is less accidental gesture.

    • @VicharB
      @VicharB ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Got these as my upgrade to my PXC 550-II. They are definitely sounding good, especially considering I really like Sennheiser sound signature, have their wired models including HD600 and HD58x, true wireless as well, but PXC were much more neutral sounding which I really appreciated. These are more "jam" curved but still much better than the hyped XM4/XM5 and for me better than PX7/8, but not better than Focal Bathys but then they are much costlier and bulkier. Comfort is really good, no love lost compared to awesome PXC 550-II fit and weight. I ended up tweaking the EQ after all and settled with -2.0 points on bass, +1.5 treble, still undecided on mids, probably +0.5-1.0. Soundstage is much wider than PXC 550-II.
