For the past 10 years, I have been using the Sony MDR-7506 headphones for all my audio listening. Having recently upgraded to a Topping DX5 II DAC/headphone amplifier, I decided it was time to upgrade to more audiophile-quality headphones as well. After doing some research, I found the Sennheiser HD600 highly recommended by everyone (including ChatGPT, Gemini, and AVScience). Its one defect is the low subbass, which can be addressed…

After reading multiple positive reviews (on Amazon), I decided to purchase the Sennheiser Momentum 4 Bluetooth Headphones to replace my current Monoprice BT-600ANC headphones. I would like improved sound quality and ease of use. Overall, I could have been more impressed. Although I noticed some improvement over the  Monoprice BT-600 , it did not justify paying 5 times more. When I compared these to Apple AirPods Pr…

After my Aukey EP-B40P Bluetooth earbuds stopped working (the battery died), I started looking for suitable replacements. My wife purchased the Apple AirPods initially, but I did not like the sound quality, which seemed lower than my $25 Aukey EP-B40P buds.

Inna ordered Airpods Pro from Amazon (they were on a 2…

After trying many different earbuds, I recently purchased the Jlab Epic 2 Bluetooth Earbuds after reading an excellent review on Wirecutter .  Wirecutter claimed that these were the best headphones for working out, and I wanted to replace my Klipsch S4i wired earbuds with a Bluetooth headset using an Apple iPhone 7 or an Apple Series 3 watch. Since this Jlab Epic2 he…

I decided to purchase the Jabra Move wireless Bluetooth headphones on Amazon for my work (to block coworkers' noise and to use them on walks during lunchtime). Although I initially liked them, I realized they were too bulky and painful to wear for more than 30 minutes. Here is my overall review. Positives Relatively inexpensive ($50) Sound exceptional with excellent bass extension Go…

Wanting to retire my iPod Nano player with Klipsch S4i earbuds, I decided to use my iPhone 7 and Apple Watch Series 3 with wireless, Bluetooth earbuds. I looked forward to avoiding long cord dangles and fully wireless operation during my workout sessions at Forma Gym and mountain biking rides. Researching online, I saw that the AUKEY Latitude wireless headphones were highly recommended by the Wirecutter , and for $30 on Am…
