I was such a consumer that I thought "what? There's no bass?" When I got these. I was used to the earrарe bassboost quality of cheap advertisement-heavy brand headphones. These are the closest thing to legitimate sound quality I've ever owned, and I love them so far! Got them for a superb deal as well so I had to cop.
You have lived a very sad life. Try a set of Sennheiser HD600.
@@kohnfutner9637 I've heard that the beyerdynamic DT line (openback) has literally the purest sound quality out there. Do you have experience on those?
I could get something from beyerdynamic or sennheiser as "at home headphones" and have the boses for when I'm on the move
@@fuju7871 I haven't used beyerdynamic. From everything I've seen, they are tilted up (hot up top). Check out rtings.com and see if you can find the pair you're looking at. From the data I've seen and reviews I've listened to, Beyerdynamic doesn't sound like the step I want to take.
I can tell you, Sennheiser hd600 IMO is the cleanest, most trusted headphone I have ever heard. I've owned them for 3 years now and they've put all my other headphones on the shelf (except my bt headphones I use for mowing and sometimes driving).
I've heard other reviewers say the same thing. I haven't heard a single audiophile who has anything bad to say about the hd600. The only other headphone I've heard people review possibly as preferable to the 600 are the Hifiman 400i. But if I remember correctly people said that they're less comfortable and not built as well and some people still prefer the HD 600. I had thought about getting them just for comparison but I passed after hearing my most trusted reviewer (the guy who seems to hear like I do)say he preferred the 600.
I bought my 600 based on reviews from extensive research and it paid off. I wish it had been the first pair I bought and I might have saved money. Check out super* reviews maybe he has experience. Also check out metal578 and see if he's done a video. I don't know where you got your information but those guys I trust.
@@kohnfutner9637 seems like the sennheisers are rated higher. I got the shoutout to the beyers from various CZcamsrs who use the beyerdynamics for gaming and such. Rtings says both the DT770 pro and DT990 pro have a treble issue, it being too sharp. I'll definitely look into the sennheisers at some point, thank you for your replies
@@fuju7871 you got it my friend, my pleasure
These are an absolute workhorse of a headphone. Seriously I put more than 25 hours on them each week, no complaints on my part. Run them off bluetooth almost all the time as I'm not that bothered with fidelity when I'm out and about. I have my home rig for that.
I might've averaged 50 hours per week since 2019 on mine, and they still perform like new. These headphones were expensive as fuck, but they might very well have been the best tech investment I've ever made.
And if these were to fail, for some reason, I'd go for a new pair of 35 II without any hesitation
Thank you! You totally made me not regret getting the Bose QC35ii over the Sony WH-1000XM3s! It took me a long time to come to a decision but even after choosing to go with Bose I was still unsure of my choice. You've put my mind at ease and this seemed to be a pretty honest and fair review. I wasn't expecting the Bose (or the Sony for that matter) to be the best sounding headphones I've ever heard, but I was hoping that they would be good enough to still be very pleasing to listen to whenever I need the convenience they offer. I can't wait for them to arrive!
The Sony Wh1000xm3 are too bass heavy so if you’re looking for “audiophile” headphones you’d get the Bose because they’re more balanced
@@urbanistgod The Sony's come with an equalizer app, so to say they are too bass heavy might be a bit of an overstatement because on those headphones, you can turn off the ANC and still adjust the sound whereas on the Bose, if you want good sound, you MUST use the ANC, and ANC gives me a slight headache. I have both at the moment and messed with the Sony so the bass is the same but the 1000xm3 has more balanced clear sound whereas on Bose, it sounds like someone cranked the treble too high and has a slight hollowness as a result.
@@The1Music2MyEars The Bose has piercing treble on the NC 700. Also the headphones sound perfectly fine not on ANC. EQ screws up and alter the entire sound. It’s better to just get balanced headphones.
@@urbanistgod Did you test out both at the same time? Because I'm telling you I have both, the treble is too high on the QC35 and there is nothing I can do to change it because to my ears, the bass sounds rich and full when ANC is on and when it's off, offers very little bass response like in Interstellar's No Time for Caution. Hans Zimmer pumped a shit ton of deepness into that score and it's just not there with the Bose ANC off.
@@The1Music2MyEars According to Rtings the treble isn’t too high actually. You might think it’s too high by comparing it with the Sonys
I’m a bass head and trying to go into the audiophile life and Bose has the cleanest bass I’ve heard. And I like the warm sound because they just sound calming and relaxing
does the bose has the perfect bassline ?
exactly
Thanks for the review. When you mentioned the QC 35 II on your previous headphone rating video, I decided to purchase a pair and I am 100% satisfied. The comfort is second to none and the ANC is great to block out noise during the day when I work. I do own Sennheiser’s Hifiman and Focal headphone but the Bose fill a niche for daily use. I have only used them wireless in BT mode, gonna have to give a listen with the cable. Happy July 4th!
Awesome review, such a "wholesome" approach to helping us evaluate these. Thanks!
In my experience, the big issue with these is the mic. It artificially amplifies anything in the vocal range, so if you're on a conference call with anyone else around you who happens to be talking (even quietly), you need to be using mute a lot. There's a whole thread about this on Bose's forums, and they don't seem to really care too much about fixing it.
I have these and Bose just fixed this with a firmware update now you can select self voice level in the bose connect app you can also turn it off completely
I sold my QC 35 and got a pair of Momentum's Wired because of the supposed difference in sound quality. Couldn't regret the decision more.
Sound quality is the most important thing but not the only thing. The amount of utility from a QC 35 makes it a no brainer when it comes to portable use
Vanfo Momentum’s aren’t sounding good tho.
That’s exactly what I look for in travel headphones or generally when I am moving about, going to work, around the house, not just for going through the airport. The utility from these is immense. Well put Vanfo
@@antonzinn2293 Any other TWS that sound better than Momentums?
Sold mine too, same reason. Comfort with the QC35 is unmatched. Huge regret. Have my Sony WH-1000XM3 still - better noise cancelling and battery life, but also not as comfortable and the touch controls are hit and miss. Should've stuck with the QC35.
@@LazYevgen H9
This was the review that actually convinced me to buy one over the 700 and even the XM cans. I have a good rig at my desk (balanced HD650 FWIW), but I prefer the feature set and relaxed sound of Bose’s offerings while on the move. These are perfect transit cans.
I received a pair of Bode QC35II with a new phone and was going to sell them unused as I owned a set of wired Sony NC cans. Curiousity got the better of me however and I tried them out, whilst not the most detailed and recognising some of the quirks highlighted in this excellent DMS breakdown, I decided to keep them and parted with the old set. Since then after many holiday and business flights and uses for business calls, I have them as my go to set for the day on comfort, isolation and convenience - oh and despite a few bruising encounters there's no observable damage either. Music and movies is a switch over however to the HD58X or Audeze LCD2, depending on the mood.
Nicely done review DMS.
Wonderful review! I’ve had mine for about a year and do love them for what they are. They are my daily driver for work and general listening. A range of music and video sound enjoyable and for 5 to 8 hour work days the ANC and comfort cannot be beat. Not my first choice for immersive listening but i do appreciate them!
Best QC review ever mate, keep up the great work! 👏👏👏👏👏
The Sony wh-1000xm3 has all the good quality of build, isolation, noise cancelling and connectivity the QC 35 has, but with considerably better sound. Absolutely love my pair 😍
Just bought one yesterday for 230 after everything, couldn't resist at that price.
@&Ö& Paneristi 💩
i'm watching this BOSE QC35 II review with BOSE QC35 II
Totally agree! I have this as my daily driver just because of the best phone call quality out of all ANC headphones and comfort, convenience!
Great video! now that I have the qc35's and I'm seeing it again I realize how helpful this review is.
I have had my qc35 ii for over 2 years. I never noticed any lag for gaming. I wear them for over 8 hours at a time. They are fantastic headphones and highly recommend
Hey there was an update which brought down the ANC quality, how is it holding up now?
@@zulfiqartabassi8909 The ANC for me is fine as usual. I mainly use them during the day at work or when I am playing WoW with music on. I think they are a solid pair of headphones for the money.
@@Vikturus22 I was gonna go for them but the cabin pressure was horrible, my ears were paining for the rest of the day. I chose the dt770 pro instead. Thank you for sharing your experience 😁
@@zulfiqartabassi8909 what? these are one of the most comfortable headphones. How can you say the cabin pressure was horrible? Literally everyone praises them for not having high pressure. Ur the only person i've seen saying that
@@sava1300 well I tried them on in the store, had a headache for the rest of the day. They probably were not updated
They sound good enough, they're extremely comfortable for me (depends on how your ears actually fit inside the cups), the ANC at the time was mind-blowing and now it's still good, the battery life is very good but I have to charge them every day when I'm using them all day (and you definitely can wear these literally all day, I spend quite some time in hospitals and I wear headphones there literally all day) but I used them heavy for several years and the battery life is probably half of what it used to be, the charging time still is amazing. I think I'm on my 4th pair of ear pads right now because I shave my head really short so I wear down pads quite quickly. They're best for CZcams and Podcasts and stuff, for active music listening they're alright, so for me they definitely lean towards the convenience side and not the pure sound quality side. They're super rugged, they fell off my head several times and the only "damage" is a slight dent in one ear cup. They're made out of plastic but it's super strong, super flexible and they should last you a very long time (probably until the battery is completely dead), I don't take too much care about the stuff I use every single day, those things need to work, so if they survive my dropping and shoving them in backpacks without a case and stuff for 5 years that really means something.
I pretty much only use them wired for gaming because of the bluetooth delay and if you use them wired, definitely still turn them on. They sound super different when they're turned off and only run passive and to my ears they sound very thin and not very pleasing. But if you're absolutely out of juice and you need them they will work. I would rather take them off, charge them for 15 minutes and use them probably multiple hours wired and turned on.
I too am a big headphone and sound fan but honestly for what they do, Bose does it well. There is always a spot for them when i travel
They sound good to me. Not the best but the comfort is why I use them more than any other headphones. I can do a 5+ hour session with no fatigue. Got them for plane rides and use them more than any of my other headphones.
DMS, you simply are best youtuber when it comes to true and honest reviewing of audio! i just belive in your ears.
Lately I am looking for a mobile, relatively small well isolating closed-back or ACN headphones for commuting. So I dont need a HiEnd stuff, but I dont want a typical slopy bass heavy cans. In short, there's not much choice. :/
pchlars Should look at the Sony 1000xm3, the Bass is pretty nice on them, much better than the Bose, and you can have several eq’s in the app.
@@essentialedm937
I'll give them a listen. Thank you :)
I have the og QC35’s and battery is still amazing.. I don’t know how. Sounds as good as day one and the earcups and overal condition is still mint. These have no business working this good after 4 years. You pay for quality! My $40 Amazon earbuds listed 3 months and then decided they won’t pit anymore lol. These are the best just wish they were a bit tighter on my head so I could jog with them.
I agree that some people mistake treble as more detail or openness.
More and more peoole are commenting about how they perceive treble as oppenness or airiness. I wish somebody put this to the test, because then, I'd pretty much just EQ everything lmao
Yira Varga So true. I’ve bought Chi-Fi earbuds on people’s recommendations and “detail” has just turned out to be ice-pick treble.
Treble and treble extension is a major aspect, if not the defining aspect of detail next to transient response and dynamic range.
love this stuff man. keep it up.
Can we get one for the qc45
Love mine! I have had my current pair for 6 years and have used them on numerous flights and for everyday use for all kinds of things such as music, calls, podcasts, youtube, etc. I have replaced the earpads once and so far that is all that I have had to do in terms of maintenance. I think for practical use in terms of travel, calls, and just about everything else, they can't be beaten. They are very easy to use, 9/10 they pair without failure, the noise canceling is excellent and they are comfortable. For those times when you want to REALLY kick back and just listen to music and you can actually tell the difference in sound quality ( many people can't), then invest in something like Sennheiser HD 800 or Philips SHP9500.
Thats a pretty good lifespan for the earpads. You see several people that say they replace them yearly and ive had to replace mine a couple of times too (given those were aftermarket and i had bought my headset used, but when i got it they were still in good shape. Not for long tho)
Yup, convenience. I bought skullcandy uproar wireless for 30 bucks, 2 years ago, and I'm still using them all the time outdoors or in the bus. Neutral-ish, no aptx, no details, no noise cancelling... they're just a little piece of flimsy toy-like plastic that weighs nothing, but they're always in my backpack because wireless for mp3s, youtube videos on my smartphone and a wireless microphone for phone calls is fun (also comfortable AF because they're basically earmuffs, lol).
Yup. Skullcandy uproars have no details, but no noise cancelling anyway. I'm not searching for details when I'm walking outdoors or in the bus... I can't. And if I'd do that, I'd forget real life! One button press and I'm connected to bluetooth, one button press and I'm disconnected, throw it in the backpack. Cheap AF convenience, yay!
Thank goodness you've got an extended review for these 👍 I've been getting the urge to get a £100-200 set of iem's and portable DAC as I've been getting fed up of the warmth and lack of detail in these but I was worried I was imagining it and thus would be burning money.
Your review is extremely complete, that's very interesting, thanks a lot
Tyll says on his video that if you turn the volume up on your phone all the Way, minus one, and then control the volume on your headset, it has better bass, something like that. Not sure if I can tell the difference, but I do it.
But I totally agree, this is a very warm headphone. The noise canceling is mainly why I use it, sometimes I just need to block out external noise
Sony headphones were a little too complicated as far as learning all the features, and the sound was a little bright for a headphone I’d be using for long listening sessions to block out sound, And they were not quite as comfortable as this headphone.
The most concise review I have ever experienced. Thanks.
My QC 35 2'S are on the way! So what's your TOP #1 Over the ear headphone? Good video. This is my 1st pair of Bose ANC headphones.
Same here how do you like these?
@@shorts26 I love em....perfect amount of bass vs mids and highs. ANC is Insane! I fly alot so ANC is a must.
I know they're not the best headphones out there but I love them for there comfort, I am listening to music, podcasts, and CZcams 75% of the day and these things cause little to discomfort.
I'm glad you mentioned the comparison to Tidal Master and Low. Im trying to get into headphones so I would pop back and forth from low to master and kept thinking "There's barely a difference!!"
excellent review! As a former Headfi'er and CanJam goer, I trust your opinion on sound quality 100%.
Have you experienced the ANC degradation with firmware 4.5.2 that dozens of people have reported on Bose's support forum? Bose says they can't duplicate it, but the reports keep coming in.
i wouldn't update it because when i got them i listened to a song and anc was great but then after the update it fucked up noise cancelling. i was luckily able to downgrade tho and the anc was much better
Loved this review! You nailed it! Most of my music is consumed on my stereo system through speakers. For 6 years I've used the Bose QC20 noise canceling earbuds for travel, walking around and Panera Bread sessions. They are perfect for getting rid of background noise and unwanted restaurant music.
What I do like about the QC20's is how the bring music forward, requiring less volume. I just purchased the QC45's, which are similar to your QC35ll's. I'm really enjoying those for the same use scenario.
On thing that I was surprised about was the call quality was much better on the QC20 than the QC45's. Perhaps that's because the QC20's are wired? the QC45's sound much better with the noise cancelation turned off, with the wired connection.
Review the Sony WH-1000XM3 please
Ive had both, and sony's are better imo.
Shahzad Khan Which construction/ build quality is better Sony or the Bose?
@@joshchurchill1135 Sony has better build quality yet alot of peoples break more and I had 3 and all broke and then got qc 35 and qc 35 sounds worse and is less comfortable than sony
@@actualhuman5759 90% of retarded people use Sony products.
@william jafta Absolutely spot on. I have the exact same experience and you've worded it perfectly. I wonder why most reviewers don't bring it up.
Really really helpful video. I hadnt considered these. The technical points are what I'm interested in. Thanks very much
Close your eyes.... Snowden started reviewing headsets, and I trust em’
That’s quite interesting. I had to google a lot of those terms to find out about the headphones I just bought
Thank you for the video, it was very good. I agree that they are not detailed by any means. However, I would not consider the difference between wired and wireless small. When I connect to audiofly 1.5 or a Meiers Corda Pro II they sound quite OK, warm but ok. While when they are in Bluetooth they sound bad, mushy and washed up. My sensation when I turn on the bluetooth is that I am hearing headphones with a thin pillow in front of the drivers. It makes the bass booming, out of control, bigger than what is in the record but soft and mushy with no impact. The high frequencies are there, but rolled out and not extended at all. It is true that Bluetooth compresses the audio, but most people confuses the limitations of bluetooth with poor built-in DAC/ headphone amplifier. If I connect the QC 35ii wired to a FiiO bluetooth dongle it sounds OK, so it is not the limitation of the bluetooth technology. The truth is that the DAC of the QC35 is of bad quality, like most headphones out there.
So if you had to choose only one set of headphone for listening to music, what would you pick? I got these and love them. Please explain something to me. Are "Audiophiles" the art critics of music? Is there a school or a degree to become an Audiophile or are they just self proclaimed. I have a pair of Sony studio headphones used to mix music and the tracks are generally flat. I am new at all this and you seem very knowledgeable but I've been listening to music for many years using cheap ones and expensive ones. Isn't it really a matter of taste. Some people like more mid, bass, etc. I think it's a matter of preference, which also includes fitting, comfort, style, etc. I also have other Bose products and they all sound great however I can do without the price tag! Let me know what you think is the best all around headphone for listening to music, plugged or unplugged. Thanks!!
If it sounds good it is good. And Bose QC35II sound damn good. And they feel good. And they last and last. Only bad thing is during phone calls if another call comes in it totally prempts the conversation incessantly for extended moments with the bose voice telling you the entire incoming phone number over and over and over. Why, Bose?? Why??
You can turn the voice prompts off in the app
You are doing a great job man!!
Thank you for a quality video. Your efforts are appreciated.
They sound really good to me personally, especially when listening to metal music. Very clear.
I was wondering if these would be good for metal music because that's what I listen to, so i appreciate your comment.
@@HenriettaBiggle I also listen to a lot of hardcore/metalcore in these. Sounds great. I'm no audiophile though.
@@HenriettaBiggle For the price u could do twice as good than these tbh.
D Payne really? What headphones would you recommend?
Metal rots your brain.
anyone else watching this while wearing bose qc35 II?
My QC35 II pair wired-in sounds more muffled and less full like the sound is coming from the end of a tunnel, compared to my $50 pair of HyperX cloud. When the Power is turned off but still wired-in, the volume and quality drops significantly. But after seeing this guy's review about the headphones being less detailed than $70 ones, and him saying you don't buy Bose for sound quality, I don't feel nearly as ripped off. I'm glad I watched this cuz I was going crazy over how bad my $300 pair of headphones sounded.
Looking forward to your 700 review and yes I don't think anyone would ever expect these to be an Audiophile headphone
Just finished editing it! It goes up on patreon in 2 days.
Awesome professional review 👍
I have an old pair of Sony MDR10-RNC headphones with magnificent noise canceling. But I have big ears and they would hurt after about an hour of wearing. (Yes, I was called Dumbo as a kid because my ears.) I have two 12 hour flights coming up so I starting looking around for new set. The new Sony MX3 was attractive because of the superior performance of my old Sony pair but the ear cups looked the same size. Some reviewers recommended the Bose QC ll (along with several non-ANC models) for people with big ears so I gave them a try. The noise canceling is great and the cups don’t hurt my ears the way the Sony cups did. I can’t really comment on the sound quality because I have high frequency hearing loss from age and exposure to gunfire. However, the sound quality seems to be o.k. for me when I wear my hearing aids that compensate for my high frequency loss. The blue tooth connections are seamless between my Fire tv stick and my iPad Pro. Thanks, DMS for a nice review. You are the opposite of so many reviewers who feel they have to talk as fast as possible to get everything in they want to say.
Love this review! Thanks!
Comparing the passive sound (poor) to the active sound (Bose equalized), the EQ'd sound is still choppy and grainy - not good for audiophiles.
Please review the Sony WF1000XM3
i have the same pare as these! i have some queries, are they mid heavy? or do i have the defective ones?
Good video, glad to get your perspective on this can to bring in normies and help settle others. Earstudio ES100 recommended for bluetooth man, very close to the point that I don't care so don't compromise if you want audio quality and portability.
Perfect review. Your description of Bose’s purpose was totally on point. 👏
I just bought this product last week …..anyway thank you for describing the details on QC35!
I don't fly like I used to, but if I did these would be a must. The ability to drown out engine noise and crying babies, not to mention ignore in a socially acceptable manner the bathroom fixture salesmen sitting next to you is worth the loss of audio performance.
lmao ;-)
This guy kinda makes me feel like he is a audiophile version of Doug DeMuro
Mine are still working and the battery still lasts a long time only the earcups have torn apart 😂
@DMS3TV Is there any chance I could get a recommendation from you?
I was advised to buy these as an upgrade to my Gen1 CAL's and as you mention in this video it's actually the other way around.
I love the sound signature of my CAL's and I am looking for an upgrade, everything i've tried has more detail for sure, but it loses the essence that I love.
(example can be found on Pink Floyd - The Division Bell - Coming back to life 0:18) This example sounds warm and resonant as if it was in your hands, I find this is lost on other things I have tried.
Should i get this or the sony's xm3?? Still confused between these two headphones.
Sony is garbage
I prefer the Xm3 because it has an app equalizer. If you get the XM3, I do suggest you turn off the ANC, turn the clearbass to +8 and you got yourself a set of headphones with same bass response but more clear and less treble-blasted sound resulting in a more "full" range. People have asked Bose for an equalizer in their app for years and they haven't done jack sh**
Nailed it. Great review. Thanks.
Got a pair of these recently, and there's only one problem with them, at high volumes the higher end frequencies produce a crackling noise, the only way to get rid of it is to tune down the higher frequencies using the equalizer of your music player or a third party sound control software, only happens in bluetooth, when wired no matter how loud you turn them up the crackling dissapears i'm assuming it's a bluetooth issue, that is supposedely fixed with a firmware update but people have complained that the anc wasn't as effective with a newer version so i didnt make that jump, aside from that the battery life is as advertised, the comfort is unlike anything i've had in the past, you can sleep with these on, they're that comfortable.
brilliant review
What is your favorite headphone around $400? Have you found a good one using Bluetooth? Excellent sound and base.
Have you used any true wireless earbuds?
Sony true wireless ones are pretty good.
Shahzad Khan thanks
Hey bud, since you’re one of the greatest guys out there when it comes to this theme, I’d like to know about your opinion:
Which headphones I can surely trust when it comes to sound quality(good bass, clean mids and highs) between 200-400 bucks? I’ll buy one but still couldn’t decide on which one. I am searching for these ANC lately but I thought this feature could give me a better sound experience, but they’re usually expensive and that’s not my priority, since I plan to use it in not-noisy places.
If this anc thing can help with the sound, I was thinking about the new bose 700. What do you think?
aaaand they released the brand new 700
What do you think of the new qc45 do you think they are worth for 30€ more or should i go with the 35II? Hope u will reply if you have any feedback would be great.
Thinking about the same.. Many people seem to like these more..
When I buy a portable consumer product, audio quality is the least important factor for me personally. First comes comfort, convenience, build quality, features and then audio quality. If it’s an audiophile headphone, first comes comfort, then audio quality then everything else.
Excellent review! I agree with everything!
blegh. why does it feel so hard to just find quality sound headphones. i feel like so many reviews are puff pieces. I appreciated this review though, but made me more unsure.
I have a set mainly for sleeping i tried the Sony 1000xm3 witch were great but they were ti big uncomfortable to sleep in, the bose was a much better choice. However I've yet to find a perfect sleep headphones
So currently I have these headphones, and have for a couple of years. I'm interesting in getting a much better sounding pair of headphones, such as one of the pairs on your ranked list of headphones but as far as having a pair of headphones for travel/commuting/hanging out at a starbucks, etc are these headphones already the best option or are there any headphones that have way better sound and clarity but also have the practicality of listening in public without carrying amps or the sound bothering nearby people?
I've tried a bunch of consumer headphones like the Sony wxm4 wxm3 I've tried the beat solo I've tried the beat studio 3 I've tried the Bose 700 I've tried Skullcandy skull crushers and the Skullcandy hesh the Bose SoundLink headphones and the Sennheiser momentum 3 and none of them come close to the sound quality of the Bose qc35 twos. The Bose qc35 twos are what actually got me into better sound quality headphones. I've heard you and Joshua valour talk about how there's headphones that are way way better than the Bose QC 35 twos and I'm interested.
They get warm because of thermal energy from your head
Thank you juicy gum
Nice micca line array cameo there. Taking a note out of Marvel's book dropping little easter eggs I see.
Hey man great overview of the headphones! I love the b-roll shots, they look really nice! What did you use to pan so smoothly? Appreciate the help!
Please, please tell me which are th e best sounding Bluetooth headphones that are practical to use at work. Going to buy some in the next few weeks
Would you say there is a massive difference in soundstage and clarity/details if u compare these to beyerdynamic DT 1990 PRO?
Absolutely
I tried Sony...Koss....and Bose qc2 35 headphones....Bose 🏆....
Sounds awesome
I've never heard a headphone that does a good center image. Not even my Sennheiser HD600 can do it.
Hey man, really appreciate your videos. I've been watching heaps of them to try and find the perfect set of headphones for my usage. I like to listen to music while I work and answer calls from clients etc all day, so need a pair that is wireless with a good mic. USB-C would also be preferable. I also like to create music using Logic so I also have the requirement of having something that could be used as a reference pair of headphones as well. I know to stay away from Bose going by your vids and I was almost sold on the NC700's. I then was interested in the Audio Technica M50x BT's until you slagged them off in your tier video hahahaha.... now I'm confused. Maybe the BeyerDynamic DT770 32 ohms might be the go, but I've heard they are bulky and not really good on the go. Maybe the AKG -K371..? Any suggestions would be amazing as I've watched like 5 hours of videos and I'm more confused than when I stated hahaha...
What did you go for... in the same boat
Trying to debate between these and the Audio Technica SR50BT. Can't decide :c
Beware the mid treble is somewhat raspy and artificial on the QC35, lacks dynamics, resolution, detail for sure. But I thought the balance on it is pretty good. Works for a lot of genres as well as movies..
NC for me is somewhat overrated, I dont really need it all that much, only fly 2-3 times a year.
But in the end I get much mor satisfication from a good sounding headphone, even it is not as convenient as a anc/bt headphone.
&O
For example the M50xBT is much more lively and fun, and isolation is good. P7 wireless was spectacular in the treble, but sadly it is being discontinued, and the PX replacement sucks. B&O H9 is another fun V shape option.
This review was so goood!
Excellent all-round headphones!
I'd love to know if the QC 45's are an improvement! Hopefully the sound quality is better...
@Stein Mauer They sound way worse lmao!
Got mine today yayy
spot on what you saying. it is perfect for me audio books - music when walking outside cooking, cleaning .
Sadly for dayly i coud not find anything close to comfort yet 5-6 hours listening not even noticing they there.If i want to enjoy jazz putting on mine better headphones and turning on mine dac :::===)))
Can you review a B&O headphone?
This is one of the best fucking reviews I have ever seen.
I wonder how these would sound while mowing my lawns. My riding mower in particular, if I didn’t wear my m50x, I would have pretty bad permanent hearing loss!
I don't know what it is about your audio but I always feel a lot of pressure like closed back headphones. Are you using a lot of compression? Some videos do this to me and I can't figure it out.
I use HD700's with peace EQ using a flat EQ setting I found to fix the 6k spikes.
I pre-ordered the Bose QC 45 headphones. I am looking forward to trying them. I returned the NC700 because I could not get them to pair to Bluetooth. Drove me crazy. I also tried Sony WH1000xm4 and was disappointed in overwhelming bass and muddy songs. Functions well but headphones boring.
How are they
same, i cant get the 700 to connect to the app at ease, it is such a hassle
Thoughts ?
Have you tried the Bose 700 headphones? How is the sound quality compared to the 35ii?
ANC suck on my QC35ii. I’m upgrading to fw 4.8.1 right now and I hope it’ll help. I updated to fw 4.5.2 from fw 3.1.8 which improved ANC a bit but sound quality diminished quite a bit to where I almost have to turn it all the way up for it to be enjoyable listening volume. Anyone know lose experiencing this? Anyone, please help. Would much appreciate any feedback? Thank you.
I really want headphones that have it all. The same comfort but with better sound quality. I am not an audiophile, but I do care a little bit about sound. Any recommendations for headphones that match the comfort with better sound quality?
