Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?
I haven't tried usual champs like Sony or Bose, but I neither wasn't comparing M100 with MTW4 in a bad sense :) Like, sitting in a room with a fan in 2m away and an open window with kids playing loud outside - all that noise was barely audible (no music playing). P.S. Transparency mode is quite...- streetbeat

Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?
I am testing M100s here, and my ANC experience is rather opposite - they're quite good at that, I was able to achieve pretty decent noise reduction with both foam and silicone ear tips. The former worked slightly better, but not enough to beat silicone practicality. So, likely that's very...- streetbeat

New Dali iO-12 ANC Headphones – Impressions Thread
An EDM listener here. While I prefer 5909s or Momentum 4s from pure fun listening perspective, iO-12 work well on an ordinary day (when I don't specifically look for extra energy). As @angelom suggested, just let you mind to burn-in for a few days, then decide. But I'm afraid you won't be...- streetbeat

aptX Adaptive / aptX Lossless USB Transmitters
Just ordered myself from Amazon US :) But before contacted to Flairmesh support, very nice guys, confirmed that unfortunately they have no distributor for FMA120 in Europe currently. Sounds like it won't be changing soon, hence... I went with US store.- streetbeat

New Dali iO-12 ANC Headphones – Impressions Thread
Firstly, to avoid false expectations, aptX Adaptive doesn't do automatic selection as you described above. Here's excerpt from Creative BT-W5 product page: But don't be too excited about LL - many headphones around struggle to work in that mode (incl. IO-12). Secondly, SSC is technically very...- streetbeat

New Bose Ultra Open Earbuds
I also don't like loud volumes, so most likely your experience is 100% relevant to me. Thanks much!- streetbeat

New Bose Ultra Open Earbuds
Got a question about sound volume. By the looks of it, the actual dynamic is fairly distant from ear canal. Do you have to crank the volume up for nice sound at home? And what about sound leakage by the way? *** Here in NL Bose has return period of 90 days. And the price currently is 290 Euro...- streetbeat

New Bose Ultra Open Earbuds
Sounds really interesting. Though I even didn't bother to watch reviews on these before thinking this is a lucklaster, I'll probably monitor prices in order to check it myself. Thanks mate :beerchug:- streetbeat

New Bose Ultra Open Earbuds
Here's a nice comparison with few other open-ears, with call samples. What I strongly agree with Andy is that starting price tag is hard to justify.- streetbeat

aptX Adaptive / aptX Lossless USB Transmitters
Does FMA 120 remember multiple devices and is the app required to switch between devices? Also, where to buy that dongle in Europe? (Official site refers to some N-Consulting as their distributor, but actual product link gives 404 error.)- streetbeat
