If you can wait a couple of months, Massdrop (now just Drop.com) is coming out with bluetooth wireless headphones -- Drop+THX Panda Wireless Headphones. Usually, Drop gives you much better bang for your buck. I might be pre-ordering mine soon @ $399. The sound of planar ribbon drivers should be pretty good.
Wireless cans, over the ear
Hey Guys,
Can anyone recommend a wireless pair of cans? Over the ear, preferably closed, bluetooth enabled, don't care for noise cancellation as they will be used in a quiet environment. I like the sound leaning on bright, not too much boom for me. My budget for this is anywhere up to 500, hopefully within the 300 range.
I like to listen to Qobuz on my Ipad at night. During the day I do the accasional web conference like anyone else in the current situation and I would want these cans to double duty for that.
I used to use a pair of Audeze Mobius and I was reasonably happy with those. Decent soud, convenient, confortable but they broke down after one year use and I am reluctant to buy the same model as I have doubts about the build quality.
As a general rule I don't trust Bose and I'm not too keen on Sony even though the WH-1000XM3 got great reviews all over.
How about Audio technica ?
Has anyone tried the Beyerdynamic Lagoon ? They seem to fit the bill on paper at least.
What about Sennheiser Momentum ? The reviews are not stellar and they seem to have usability issues.
Has anyone tried the new Dali io 4?
As you've seen I've perused the web; it's a shame it's difficult to try them on. But here we are, we are expected to fork out 500 without a chance of trying what we are about to buy. Hence my request for some real life experience.
Thanks anyone for reading and contributing if possible
