Posted March 25, 2023 @Dedayog @cmndr, my helpful audio friends, all others as well could you please help me figure out which headphones are good? option 1: Sony wh1000xm4 option 2: Sony wh1000xm5 option 3: Sennheiser momentum 4 option 4: Bose qc 45 or qc 35 gaming from what I can tell based on frequency curves on soundguys, all have good anc within acceptable variations pls correct if I am wrong I ran a survey on the entirety of UCSD and found that the Sony xm4 and the Bose ones are most common make of that what you will not a real consideration in the decision just felt like mentioning it Im not sure but am a bit more partial to the Sennheiser ones because of the supposedly good mic and audio quality, I’ll make a poll but would like more written responses to factor into me decision please make sure the responses and the poll line up I watch lot of movies and listen to music, mostly pop and a few rock and other genre songs, have Apple Music, that needs to be taken into consideration The Bose candidates have been eliminated, which ones? Sony m5 ,m4 , or sennheiser? Imagine everything i have written in a Linus Voice/ linus tone (Spock live long and prosper gif here ,idk why tho, i guess i just want to say that i like star trek and am waiting for new seasons of the ongoing shows), But seriously, a lot of what i type only makes sense when said in a Linus tone from an older ltt video (circa 2017-2019 & now 2024-onwards) basically before he got a beard and a lot of it should make sense even in a Linus with a beard face. also note as per the latest typing test on my laptop, my accuracy is 69% I'm not weird/creepy, I'm just observant I have ADHD and am not on any meds for it.

Posted March 25, 2023 I'd probably add what you're using them for in the post, and if it's music, what you're listening to. Kind of hard to give any useful advice without all the information Personally I wouldn't be getting wireless headphones at all, but I also don't really like headphones anymore.

Posted March 25, 2023 I do not know any of those headphones at all. I have used the Logitech G933 and currently have the Corsair Virtuouso SE, but I only use them for Discord. I run my game sounds thru my main speakers and chat thru the headphones. Gives me an ambient sound for gaming and chat is nice and clear. I'd probably look more at V-Moda, I like their products much more than Sony or Bose. My son loves his, but I haven't actually listened to them. Bose can fuck off. Have them actually made anything of quality since the 901's? The lifestyle system and $500 clock radio with "tunnel technology" were straight for the suckers.
