    Really nice review, thank you. Just some constructive feedback. I hope it's okay to leave this here... the sound of your microphone could be better. It is difficult to listen to on headphones as it sounds really abrasive and nasal. It's not your voice, it is the recording.

    Thank you for the review. I have a couple of questions: 1) while watching Atmos movies and TV shows on iPhone/iPad will I get the Spatial Audio experience as APM/APP2? 2) while using at home with my Sonos Arc audio swap, will the 4 height channels be distinctive when watching movies on ATV4k or playing on PS5?

      @user-dh6kg3kg7f 24 วันที่ผ่านมา +3

      Yes. That's the thing and one of the biggest features that so many reviewers aren't pointing out. The Sonos Ace do Dolby Atmos an Sony 360 audio with spatial audio + headtracking on both Android and iOS. When using Sonos Arc TV swap, ANY device with Dolby Atmos surround sound, sending audio to the Arc is supported.
      So your PS5, Apple TV, even your TV provider set-top box is supported.
      Besides Dolby Atmos, the Sonos Ace can also virtualize stereo sound, upscaling it to surround sound (if you want).

    Similar experiences, totally happy with mine, just the volume might be an issue. Having Apple devices, the AirPod Max haven't ever been on my list, due to size and weight. Pure Nogo. Before my new Sonos Ace, the B&W Px7S2 and Bose QC Ultra used to be my daily headphones. Sonos Ace beats them both in my eyes (and ears) . Stunning sound quality, best ANC I had so far, USB-C audio with charging the same time and that unique tv swap feature. I do like the built quality and the comfort as well. So, as mentioned before, the max volume level is the only thing for me, I would complain about. However, great package all in all and worth the money! Got mine with discount already.

    They just don’t have a good enough features to spend 450 on. Mark 4/5s from Sony’s do this more efficiently than Sonos is doing.

    • @Beer_Dad1975
      @Beer_Dad1975 23 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      They have a better battery life than the Sony's do, and at least most reviews I've seen say the noise cancellation is better, as well as the build quality. I'm definitely considering them, but I do kind of agree, my current Technics EAH-800's - well I'm sure the Sonos Ace would be an upgrade, but probably not much of an upgrade considering the fairly high price.

    the low volume that you are experiencing with “old music,” might be related to tracks not having dolby atmos versions. your phone could be adapting non-dolby atmos tracks to dolby atmos, and is missing the dynamic range

      The Airpod Max get good reviews from Apple fans, and not so good reviews from everyone else. I think they work well for those mired in the Apple ecosystem, but you can get as good in most areas, if not better for a lot less money. Also as someone else pointed out, would be silly to buy them at the moment as they are due for a product refresh shortly for sure.

    • @Beer_Dad1975
      @Beer_Dad1975 23 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I guess they are comparatively heavy, being that they are something like at least 50 grams heavier than every other headset in this segment. 50 grams is hardly anything, but it might bother someone who is wearing them all day, but then again, it might not - depends on the person I guess. I think I'd be like you, it just wouldn't be enough difference for me to notice much - then again my dailys are Technics EAH-800's which are nearly hundred grams lighter than the Airpod Max, so maybe I would?

    • @SlowDRV

      @@Beer_Dad1975 i use them everyday for at least 6hours or more a day everyday . I feel like they cant be heavy for the simple aspect of them not really being on your head but on your ears . Maybe im just different but i have tried other headphones that are definitely considered lighter but i could never really feel the difference in weight when they are on.

    It surprises me how a huge Apple fan like you still doesn’t get the porpoise of the AirPods Max Smart Case , it works like just like every other AirPods in the line up, you open the case and the AirPods Max are on and connected to your iPhone, easy and simple. I love the Smart Case no need to fold and unfold the headphones or adjust the head band to fit into the case, it’s just in and out . I’ve tried a third party big case with a zipper and a hard shell for mine but stopped using it very quickly, too many steps and it was taking a big amount of space on my backpack so I learned to appreciate the Smart Case and now I ove it .

    Sonos discriminates the Android users. First, you required an iOS device to set up the Audio swap between the Ace headphones and Arc soundbar. Second, even calibrating the Arc to your room requires an iOS device. Disgusting.
    Other manufacturers can provide their own mic for the calibration or just emit a sound directly from the soundbar...eg. Bose soundbars, Sennehiser Ambeo soundbars, etc.
    Actually I'm not surprised, as when I checked the box the usual 'Works with Android' badge which is usually there on every set of headphones boxes is missing. There is only a 'Made for iPhone/iPad badge.'
    Sonos simply hates and ignores Android users and losing a massive market because of this silly, discriminative decision.
