@theavpman4834 3 года назад

Ha no way. I have one step down (elear) from the headphones you want to buy. I would say 100% go for it if the opportunity happen to arise. The elear sound perfect and the clear sound even better (you can literally drive them on a phone too which it insane for headphones of that caliber). The focal elear alone destroys the airpods. The clear would shred them.

@soumyagupta4066 4 месяца назад

Can you suggest me a headphone which sounds more clearer and mid range and track separation is very decent and close to airpods max's, and i don't care about features, im just wanting to have a good sound quality which can be used in a quiet place for listening soothing songs.😅

At last. An audiophile review who talks about metal. I’m also an audio engineer and your review was the most helpful by far. Those super famous youtubers don’t know what they are talking about when they talk about sound. And most of them say. I’m not an audiophile but it sounds greats. So how can someone judge 550$ 🎧 without actually knowing about sound and without covering all kinds of music. Thumbs up for your review

@REMY.C. 3 года назад

I mainly listen to black metal and it's so hard to find infos about headphones that could be good for this kind of music. I'm not a sound engineer but everytime I go to a store to try headphones (with high def files) I just hate what I'm hearing. I really want to buy a very good high definition portable player and a descent headphones but I've been postponing that for the past 10 or 15 years or so because I never put a headphone on my ears and said "sound is great, I'm feeling the music". Stuck with phones and ipod classic, a Plantronics bbpro2 and mp3s...

@JimZarasOfficial 3 года назад

@@REMY.C. if you are listening to extreme metal give Sony’s MX4s a try. It amazed me on how well they handled the bass. They placed it right in the middle and it sounded tight and clean. Also I remember that the instruments separation was very good. You can also adjust the sound to your liking with the EQ if they sound a bit bass heavy to you. But try to test them with some good, modern black metal productions. If you test them with old school 90s black metal where the production was not that good at that time (for black metal at least), the headphones alone won’t make wonders.

@REMY.C. 3 года назад

@@JimZarasOfficial thank you very much for your answer. I will definitely test those. Yeah I generally test with both good and modern productions (BM that combines sharp and "precise music" like classical) and also old ones. Most of the time it's like you said, too much bass, vocals not clear enough and an overall impression of ... How can I say it... Lack of sound clarity and precision, like when you're outside a nightclub and still hear the music, it's "muddy".

@user-fg7kk1kn6b 3 года назад

@@JimZarasOfficial i have sony xm3. I modified xm3 to eliminate the bass. Most people who likes bass are not actually music literate. Most are like party goers and they love this "bass" thingy. But technically speaking, thr Sony's sound is not impressive because of thr bass. The sound became muffled, and people have to tweak it to fix it like what i did. The sony is kind of good, in low notes, but when you get into mid notes to high, it gets muffled. Let's say the singer does headvoice, the way you hear it in sony is like that person's voice is still thick even if it should br thinning out. That is why the overused wrong term AUDIOPHILE has balance sounds. The audiophile expensive headsets are all balance, not like sony, boss, apple and etc

@mammon310 3 года назад

IMO Sennheiser, Audio-technica, and Sony are the best for extreme metal. Double bass never sounds muddy with those brands.

@blakewarford1168 3 года назад

I am SO glad you mentioned more aggressive, and metal style music in this. Most reviewers use Hip Hop or Pop as a focus when it comes to reviewing headphones, which most 'Popular' headphones typically will sound great with those styles regardless with a slight change in profile. I'm a huge metal-head and I think more people should use it as a reference because it's great to measure instrument separation and low-end frequencies, just because there's sooo much going on. You can even tell that certain headphones are tuned for those specific styles, which makes it pretty difficult for me to pick a pair

@ThisIsTechToday 3 года назад

Totally! These sound pretty boring for that style. Outside of that punchy low end, everything else is phenomenal. Extreme separation which some of the more punchy headphones lack. It’s always a hard balance!

@@ThisIsTechToday Brother, you mistake me, did I imply that I was going to stop you from listening to whatever you want to? My point is simple, these are different animals aimed at different users. I own both, I compared them. The Clear are the audiophile choice between these two.

I've wanted the Elex for so long now. I currently have AKG K712 pros and they are really really good for the 300 I paid for them, but the Elex is what everyone tells me will outperform these. Not many headphones are a significant step up from these around the sub 500 price range.

Apple creates a problem then charges you a fortune to get around that problem. I really like my ipad pro but the latest stunts with the iPhone 12 take the piss.

@miaace26 3 года назад

I was supposed to buy the iphone 12 but didn't because it lacking earpods and charging brick out of its box felt like apple was pulling off a scam. I, instead, bought an S20 Plus. Never coming back to iPhone.

@dannyseville2543 3 года назад

@@miaace26 i can't remember the last time I used the in box earphones but yeah, the power brick and also for the 12 is the magnetic ring that can destroy your credit card. That is unless you buy the expensive shielded pouch. There is absolutely no need for the ring, its a gimmick with limited use.

@@ThisIsTechToday Samsung are ditching the power brick but are they actively designing their devices so you need to buy accessories so they don't ruin your other stuff? The brick is bad but that ring is pretty unforgivable.

Actually you can adjust EQ in audiogram settings. Its a hidden feature but its an easy fix for lack of bass on airpods pro 2!

For me the price is little bit high in France ( 629€ ) but for 550€ or 450€ i buy one , The Sony and Bose don't have the spacial Audio and they don't have a premium build. Good Job Apple buy please go down a little bit for the price ... Good review Brandon ;)

@ThisIsTechToday 3 года назад

The price feels rough in USD so I bet it’s even harder for you 😬 I still don’t really care for Spatial Audio beyond it being cool tech. The build quality is the big thing. It’s really, really good.

@carstenpxi 3 года назад

When Playing Apple Music you can use the EQ there. Also Accessability has some EQ options.

@ottojagenstedt9740 3 года назад

He never said "an EQ doesn't exist". Spotify has their own as well. These headphones do not have an actual EQ for themselves and that would probably always be better than a third party music service EQ is.

@perryjohnson8161 3 года назад

I enjoyed your review however I have these headphones and I just feel their were just so many things that were brought up that could have been a bit misleading or just not brought up at all like the volume crown orientation which is configurable, the band is removable with a sim card tool. Not to mention they are many additional audio adjustments in the system settings. Another feature nobody’s really talking about is the Find My which may seem insignificant but at least worth mentioning But hey maybe those things would be discovered at a later time.

@ThisIsTechToday 3 года назад

A lot has been discovered or changed since this video was made. At the time, it was what was best known. Sorry.

I like the multi-point bending mechanics. Sounds like something to make headphones last longer on my head and helix nerves. I imagine that competing audio manufacturers will add that to their products if they haven't already.

Thanks for the review! Amazing work! 6:08 Thanks especially for this part! So many reviewers kept saying how amazing ANC was and how they couldn't hear anything, while I kept hearing everyone talking around me pretty clearly even with ANC on. I mean, the ANC IS very good, but some random noises can still be heard. Other people's review got me thinking I was crazy.
