Sonos Ace Headphones - Did Sonos Just Beat Apple? 

Comfort is so critical!! Apple AirPods Max is painful after about an hour on my head

There’s no comparison. The QC Ultra are steps behind these.

​@@AluzionTVAnytime someone says "There's no comparison" between products that are similar, you know you're either dealing with a fanboy or a hater. There's absolutely zero consensus on the QV Ultra vs XM5 vs Airpod Max. Aka there is definitely a comparison depending on what you value most. You gotta remember some of us hate how heavy the airpods are. I tend to think the QC Ultra is overrated, but as someone heavily in the audio world, I know that is not an opinion shared by most. I like the XM5 but understand that no folding is a deal breaker for some people. My point is, saying "there's no comparison" is a useless statement. Give us reasons why you like Sonos better, so we can see if it aligns with what we value most as a potential buyer. 20 bucks says you've probably not even tried most of these headphones.

Hey bud you’re right. I shouldn’t have stated it that way. I have the QC Ultra and APM. It is my opinion the SONOS ACE have a much nicer sound signature than the QC Ultra’s. They have clear separation of instruments and nice low end. I also have found that the ACE’s are way more comfortable, the build quality feels more premium, the noise cancellation I believe is better than the APM and QC Ultra. I know sound is subjective but these are what I have found from testing all of these headphones. The TV Audio Swap feature is an added bonus.

@@electroduval831 well said

@@robertspinks835 Now throw the Focal Bathys into the mix and they blow away all three but at a substantial price delta. In this case you do get what you pay for.

Crazy how all they added was literally USB-C, other than that same exact 5-year-old headphones. 🤯

It’s advertised as doing usb-c to usb-c audio and the 3.5mm one is still too short

Actually me too! It look sutil and sophisticated.

In Texas here and same thing happened to mine. My AirPods Max crapped out on me due to too much condensation in the ear cups and had them replaced under apple care. Then they crapped out again for the same reason but no more apple care so they’ve just been sitting in a drawer for a year now. Mind you I only used them at work while sitting at my desk.

You dont really need one if you use them daily like youre supposed to. Youre meant to use them.

@@RiqMoran so i guess every other electric/electronic devices shouldn’t have on/off button too since we use them daily 🙄🙄🙄

@@RiqMoran that's the dumbest argument ever. people seriously reach for whatever reason they can to defend their favorite brands

Come on these cords crap out every 3-4 months. Who wants to be buying two different kinds? Especially when every other device is using the same cord. Then you've got the dumb red headed stepchild making life harder because it's special and has to have a different type of cord. No thanks, ain't nobody got time for that.

@@electroduval831I’m not saying anybody is “wrong” I just don’t / haven’t experienced any of that. I’m not sure I’ve ever purchased a single cable. Nowadays, I don’t hardwire charge anything but my larger devices…MacBooks, iPad, AP Max’s. Everything is wireless. So I never really understand the need. I’m trying to tho. lol. Your response helped. But I’ve haven’t experienced any of that personally.

Ecstatic meaning? And why you didn't order earbuds instead

Headphones are one of the products EU requires to use USB-C.

That mean that Apple will need to change to USB-C if the wants to sell them in EU.

And what have they bricked in 3 years.🤔

@@UberFoX get an android phone and try the Sonos, xm5 or the Bose quiet comfort. If you are in the Apple eco system I understand why you love the AirPods because I am in it too. But I also use an android and they are very lackluster when it comes to sound quality. I even use Sony earbuds xm5 and they blow AirPods out the water. You don’t see people who are not Apple users going out and buying APM but you do see the opposite

They were review bombed though lol.
