2022's BEST VALUE headphones: SENNHEISER Momentum 4 Wireless

[@vokso11]

I own the Sennheiser Momentum 4 in black, I agree it is the best value! I tried and owned the Bose QC 45, tried the sony XM5etc. The Momentum 4 has by far the best sound quality! No other headphone has the 60-hour battery life of the Momentum 4 and the Microphone is very good for phone calls, I wish the Momentum 4 had Bose's Noice cancelling! For those watching old reviews, please know that there is an update that fixes all issues mentioned within the early reviews of the Momentum 4.

[@TheDragonKnigth1]

Is it comfortable to wear for a long time ?

[@r.b.8693]

@vokso11 Do those fixed issues also include the bug of the Momentum 4 headphones automatically switching on while in the case under some circumtstances, e.g. when the case is being stored vertically inside a backpack? I am also considering getting the Sennheiser Momentum 4, but automatically switching on headphones would be kind of a deal breaker for me.

How the momentum 4 isolate the noise during calls? Can block high noises such as barking dogs ?

[@bryannelson6139]

I bought a pair for $300 on Amazon. I love these! They sound spectacular. Thank you for the review. I agree it’s a fantastic value.

[@wilburgonsalves7741]

I love the direction this channel is heading towards, especially with your attitude and take on such products. I really feel that you carry the same unbiased nature of giving feedback in every video no matter how good/bad the product. The simplicity in video reproduction and presentation in its own way is truly amazing. It would be wrong on my part to leave out the efforts put in by the team behind the camera, so Kudos to you'll as well. Great work!

That beat at 5:14 is dope! I keep coming back for it. Nice review, by the way.

[@AJY6396]

just ordered mine in charcoal color after extensively watching several reviews about different ANC headphones and I can’t wait for it to try once it arrived!

[@StrangerInParadise58]

I agree 100%, John! I own the PX8 and Bathys and love them both - very much! But I find myself reaching more for the Momentum IVs. They just sound soooo good!!! They were great when I first put them on, but they grow on me even more the more I listen to them. What a great value in Bluetooth headphones they represent in 2022! Great review, John!

[@techmed-rainer]

Yeah, thank you John! Now you know, why the Sennheiser Momentum 4 Wireless are my favourite pair of Bluetooth ANC headphones. I also prefer them over the Sonys. And I had a chance to try the B&W, and again my preference are the Sennheiser. Unfortunately I don't have a chance to try the Focal Bathys. I own the their Celestee, which I really love. A feature of the Sennheiser you didn't even mention (I know, time is limited), is their capability to connect them via USB-C and listen and charge simultaneously.

[@julianboon4917]

Hi, I hope you can provide me with an answer about this: can I also use the Sennheiser M4 with usb-c or usb-c to 3.5 attached to a DAC on my Samsung S20 or Samsung Note 10+ to listen to Hi-Res Flac audio through Tidal app, close to lossless quality? Since I think this cannot be done through Bluetooth alone. Thanks :)

[@georgizhelyazkov2379]

@@julianboon4917 HI, quick question. Are the coming with USB-C to USB-C-Cable? I have S20+ and would like to use wired connection at home, and TIDAL. Or I need a DAC?

[@WaynesWorldStudioVancouver]

I own this M4 for a month and having a lot of issue, I’m surprised that none of the issue even mentioned! I work along side with the construction crews indoor with a noisy environment, it cut down the noise which is great. Yes, I installed latest Sept firmware 2.9.12 right after I purchased. I wear this head set at least 8 hours a day even though I work 10 hours. The unit worked good for a week with all touch function worked. I do say the fast forward function is a miss and hit! What I meant is, there are time it won’t skip forward. It sounds great but the bugs starting to pop out: It will turn itself off if you hook up two devices from time to time; it didn’t happen before. I love the feature when you pull the right head set out off your ear, it will stop playing any song, it worked last night and now today. Last night I couldn’t turn it on, a bit of google search and solved the issue by holding down the power for 20s to reboot. The pause and double tapping (noise cancellation) worked well. The touch function can be a nightmare, it is not base on your finger touching like the touch screen off an iPhone. My hoodie will touch it and it will either be pausing or doing other weird shit, it is very irritating! When you power it on or off, it never tell you it is on or off mode; it will tell you it is connected. Here you are trying to listen if you are connected even though it is not powered on! I like the sound but the bugs are really troublesome, if you can live with all this issue then it is for you. Yes the battery life is a bonus but I don’t buy this head set base on this. Sennheiser really need to update another new firmware, I got till early next year before returning it back; meanwhile I will have to live with it!

[@mab7175]

You wrote an extensive exposition with verbosity substantiating the fact you're not an audiophile.

[@melrep8482]

i had no issues at all

[@angadsngh01]

All these guys who understand sound well always praise the senheisers. Great review.

[@ShaneRyanMusic]

Thanks, great review. After watching several other videos on headphones, it amazed me how little they talked about the actual sound quality from them rather concentrating on features. Yes, features are important, but at the end of the day, it's all about the sound for me... Cheers...

[@vokso11]

TOTALLY AGREE ! I got the Sennheiser momentum 4 in black ! No regrets !

[@turbo6033]

John, you make among the best audio reviews in the world! And this is true for years!

[@EdvardLaub]

Asked for a review of these a while back. Much appreciated. I have owned a pair since their release. The software reliability is indeed an issue but the excellent sound makes up for it.

[@wagiqwq]

It's just awfully satisfying, I've gone from GAMING HEADSETS to these, amazing introduction into the audiophile world.

[@lukebowler1915]

Cheers from down under, loved the review & helped me 110% making my decision to purchase the Momentum 4. Straight to the point

[@redboxfile100]

I purchased these a few weeks ago and I agree with your review entirely. They've replaced my Momentum 3's which have now been sold. They have much better ANC and are lighter and more comfortable than the 3's which had only 17 hours battery life! All in all the 4's are a major upgrade on the 3's. Better ergonomics and much better sound quality. I'm still smiling after 5 weeks of owning them and it's reassuring to know that you rate them so highly. A spot on review - thanks and all the best for the New Year in warmer climes.

[@anamargarida3726]

Sorry if I’m late to the party. Just bought my first Sennheiser Momentum 4 and I freaking love it. The audio is amazing, the ANC is brutal for my use and they are fantastic on terms of battery. This was the video that actually made me buy it, so thank you very much for the opinions and this video.

[@Rbl7132]

SOLD! Thank you for making this choice easy.

[@Shagvloei]

I got them too but with 9mm cable connected to my laptop the momentum 4s are way better

[@cozysouth]

I just bought these Momentum 4s and they are fantastic. I can wear them all day with no discomfort and love the amazing sound quality. Fantastic value.

[@Kizmit-]

Well done sir. Greatly appreciate your reviews.

[@shanksworthy]

This review was refreshingly accurate. I’ve owned all the generations of Sonys, and switched to the M4’s last year. I love these things for all the reasons the reviewer mentioned. He didn’t miss a thing, and there were a lot of observations he made that no other reviewers seemed to notice (maybe because of bias on their part).

[@52incredible]

Hi , I am looking forward to buying this. did you face any issues with your M4 until now. I have heard there are some software and connectivity issues .

[@DontEatSmurfs]

hey, im also curious about how your M4s are doing, i heard about this issue with the headphones getting ultra hot and another issue with some weird noise after listening for sometime

[@Polo_187]

​@52incredible I got them a few days ago, there was a firmware update which I immediately installed with the app first. So far they have been perfect, the app works great, no issues or bugs, they sound amazing, touch functions work surprisingly well. I love them so far.

[@ShejtanVrbaski]

Well, interestingly, I wanted to replace my worn down, 5 yr old SONY WH1000XM3 with M4 - not really for nice music listening (I have Bowers and Wilkins for that) but rather all-around / watching movies / gaming / home office etc... But these old trusty SONY headphones that I've used daily for almost 5 yrs, that I''ve patched with duct tape to keep them from falling apart - still beat the crap out of the Momentum 4 when it comes to ANC!!! M4 are absolutely worst I've tested in this department. SO I'm returning mine to the store for the refund. Have no idea where to go next. Buying newer SONY would be an obvious option but I need aptX classic for low latency (gaming and movies) which is something that SONY unfortunately has ditched since XM4 series.

[@rwjh3698]

​@@ShejtanVrbaski Try Airpods Max if ur an iPhone user. The sound quality and ANC are one of the best of its competitors. The down side is that it's a bit heavier(380grams) and pricy.

[@start-again]

Thank you so very much for this review of the Momentum 4s John!!! I appreciate you listening to viewrs' requests and reviewing these headphones. These are my chosen headphones for this year 🙂

[@jameslenney]

Thanks for the review - really helps those of us in the market. You’re really good at describing the differences between the headphones.

[@breunzjiacmkian]

I had many thoughts about to buy over-ear bluetooth headphones with ANC but could not decide between B&W PX7 S2, Sony XM5 and the Momentum 4 Wireless. Since today I own the Sennheiser Momentum 4 Wireless in black because I got a special offer and I am really really happy with them.

[@Budmetro]

Just bought the Momentum 4 cans and love them. I’ve had Bose for years and really enjoyed them. The Sennheiser are very comfortable and the sound is superb. Great base and highly configurable. I’m no audiophile but I can understand why the reviews are very positive.

[@VicharB]

Got these as my upgrade to my PXC 550-II. They are definitely sounding good, especially considering I really like Sennheiser sound signature, have their wired includinh HD600 and HD58x, true wireless as well, but PXC were much more neutral sounding which I really appreciated. These are more "jam" curved but still much better than the hyped XM4/XM5 and for me better than PX7/8, but not better than Focal Bathys but then they are much costlier and bulkier. Comfort is really good, no love lost compared to awesome PXC 550-II fit and weight. I ended up tweaking the EQ after all and settled with -2.0 points on bass, +1.5 treble, still undecided on mids, probably +0.5-1.0. Soundstage is much wider than PXC 550-II.

[@drippy3080]

same haha. was rockin the pxc 550-II and got the m4 yesterday. both are insanely good, but m4 is just newer and in every aspect slightly better.

[@kennykhoo1689]

Any idea Sennheiser would launch PXC 550-III? I'm waiting for it. I'm still using my PXC 550-I which I think is better than the II (individual preference).

[@stormzn9500]

I got them today and they are amazing so far🥰

[@34332]

The thing that striked me the most: "this headphone sounds like a stereo system". When I listened the first few times, exactly that came to mind. Spot on review! 👌

[@andreyzubkov8435]

Went through these exact models to finally end up keeping the momentum 4. This review is spot on tbh. Exceptional value at $279. Not saying XM5 or Airpod Max sucked, not at all. But the SQ and battery life are just a cut above. Lows, punchy mids, separation are all there.

[@BrianVallotton]

I had been thinking about buying these for about a year. Your review reminded me of the very thing I want most... Sound Quality! P.S. I wear in ear hearing aids so IEM's are not a daily choice for me. So it is over the ears for something to reach for without removing my hearing aids. Thanks for the great review. Oh, almost forgot... YES! I bought them from Amazon while the video was still running. I will have them Sunday!

[@DaveYT11]

Got the M4s about a month ago, I just love them. I agree completely with you John, also out of the box they sound good, but with a little EQ in the Sennheiser app they sound fantastic to me. The killer feature for me is the possibility to pair with multiple devices, works very well!

[@furkanerol2086]

Could you share your eq settings? I’d love to try them

[@TPQ1235]

Great series John! Thank you.

[@Jazzylikejazz]

I have these and I really love them. I love that I can charge for 5 minutes and I get 3 hrs of battery life. I love the base and just the sound overall. I wish the noise cancellation was better but either way I am so satisfied with my purchase.

[@mbrusso01]

Great review. Just sampled a pair of these today and all of your comments are bang on. i found the bass to be very good as well. Thank you

[@LoftyVisions]

Have to agree completely with your opinion, John. I was about to purchase the Momentum 4 then I found the Momentum 3 brand new at half the price of the 4, so it was a no brainer. Still, I'm happy with my purchase as these are for home use only. Merry Xmas! 🙂

[@antoniopalacioeguiguren7654]

This is the first time I see a review with actually good music on it. Very impressed

[@emkay2903]

Nice review! I bought a M4 in the middle of Oct last year based on its massive battery capacity and sound profile, and it was comfortable when I tested it at a shop. I charged it to full and took a round trip between the east coast of the US and the Eastern Asia (30hrs), a round trip between the east coast and west coast (12lb s) and used it in the office lightly. Its battery level was 10% this morning so I finally recharged it. Impressive indeed. It does, however, create a hot spot at the top of my head (head shape dependent) and its touch control is too sensitive. I was using a neck pillow during my transatlantic flights and when I rolled my head, that activated the touch control. Lol

[@aihkas]

I like the music you play in between segments. Thanks for the review!

[@pavelsavchenko3445]

Giving this video another go sitting with my pair of SM4 on the head. Cheers and thanks for the recommendation!

[@edmundgil6008]

Merry Christmas John! Interesting, no comments “specifically” about the treble/high frequency performance of the Sennheisers? That was my first thought so I listen to your review a second time and took notes. The bass performance was described in several different ways. Layer separation, general & relative quality, Headstage/soundstage; Internal spaciousness, openness, Dynamics & micro-dynamics, that Small sounds have greater Avidity & clarity, and overall sound comparison. Yes… nothing about the high frequencies? How would you describe & compare them? I think it’s hugely important to me, because the Senn4 sound like a winner, and a bargain. Thank you!

[@VeitLehmann]

To my ears, the treble is just right, there's really nothing that stands out in any negative way. Sure, they're not as airy as open-back wired headphones can be, but it surely has a lot more air than a Sony XM5 and it's much cleaner and more even there than any Bose. I can only directly compare it against the PXC 550, which is far more uneven there. From my memory, it's similar to the PX7 S2's treble. But it's not on the level of my DT 880 600 Ohms for sure. In short: Don't worry about the treble. However, I can hear some nasal resonance in the mids around 1kHz and sometimes have to dial back the mids to get rid of it. That's something almost nobody seems to observe and mention. Maybe it's just there for some people. But I can deal with it because all the other positive things Darko describes are also there and make those headphones something very special to listen to.

[@comtruise1648]

The quality of the bass is very well described here. Great sound and super battery life, been using them weeks without charging. You can use the headphones while charging and connect two Bluetooth devices simultaneously. The noise cancelling is magic. No regrets, proud owner.

[@lifeisgood698]

Please update when the bluetooth fails as it did for me after a few months.

[@TheMikeDudley]

I love the minimalist aesthetic, especially the black ones with the subtle signal of the logo just quietly announcing the provenance, which I've bought. I have them on a black plastic stand with my NAIM boxes. It doesn't scream HEY LOOK AT ME I'VE GOT EXPENSIVE HEADPHONES if I'm wearing them out and about. So to the untrained eye they look like nothing special, but to someone who knows or another Mo' 4 user, the recognition of excellence would be immediate. I like that. They're skull candy, but liquorice flavour.

[@ksmooth1973]

They are horrible

Thank you John, absolutely spot on review and one I've been waiting for with baited breath....decision made!!!!

[@BadVoodoo21]

John, I have to tell you, I had the Focal Bathys' in the basket tonight, ready to pull the trigger... and then I came across this vid of the Sennheiser Momentum 4s. You swung my decision for the value play you clearly describe in your detailed review. I have buyers remorse already because I love the Focals so much, but am very much looking forward to hearing whether you made the right decision for me or not. Cheers!

[@waiik76]

Great review. Love your information about sennheiser momentum 4. I have an old sennheiser pxc 550. Still a good headphone 🎧 .

[@VeitLehmann]

Indeed! If mine didn't break, I'd still use them as my daily driver today. They still sound better than almost everything in the price range up to 400€, only the Momentum 4 and the PX7 S2 can beat them. And they're more comfortable and pocketable than most. I just upgraded to the Momentum 4 and I'm very happy with them.

I bought the Momentum 4 because I wanted a louder sound than my AirPod Pro Gen 2 But the Airpod Pro Gen 2 are louder than the Momentum 4’s! Is there a way to get them louder? I am using an iPhone, but now I read in places that you cannot get as loud a sound with an iPhone 😞 Very disappointed if I cannot get them louder It is like I am listening to a KZbin documentary without headphones with the volume slightly up I can’t really believe this spending £300 I adjust the volume limits inside settings on my iPhone to max I know you have to be careful with your ears but this is I am struggling to enjoy a song

Can't afford headphones that cost as much as my home theater speakers (also Focal) but these Sennheiser's are awesome for the price point! I will admit that I am a Sennheiser headphone bigot going way back. I strayed from the brand for a few years but now I am back. I just picked these up today based on your review so thank you, thank you, thank you! I also gave the Sony's a try but for listening to music at home (ANC is optional for me) these are hand's down the better of the two. The app has its' quirks but nothing that breaks the deal. Thanks again for your review!

Thank you so much. I'm a long time music obsessive. I used to live in the canaries as a dj for years and used to work in pa. Been a sennhiesr customer for years none of my mates knee who they were sort of an in the know kind of thing. I look at them as the merc/bmw of audio and you can rely on German engineering and the years they been in the game. Was using moment 3 iem as daily but when I saw u were using the momentum 4 as a daily I went straight to buy one. Then I saw amazingly a diff version on amazon copper! Looks so much better than the black and special offer £178!!! I love them and you hit the nail on the head with layer separation if you tune in to different parts of the track they a really in a space of their own. For the price wow.

Have definitely found your reviews closest to what I felt about most of these products, as compared to other reviewers out there. By far the best sound that I could get on wired system is A&K Kann Alpha with balanced output to Focal Celestee. For wireless I would say with Note 20 Ultra with Atmos on, paired with Sennheiser TW 3 earbuds.

[@purpleomm]

I am on some long haul flights later this year and will be investing in my first ANC bluetooth headphones - so have been doing a ton of research - your series has been invaluable in helping to narrow down the shortlist. I have a set of open backed Austrian Audio cans for home studio use (Hi -x65s) and want to avoid a living in a box sound associated with closed backs - sounds like the Sennheisers could be the very thing - I'll go audition :) thanks for help

[@NiklasMX]

Great review, thank you!

[@Chanobi]

I landed on these a couple of months back. Glad to see you review them. My main reason was just the unnatural bass boost on the Apples and B&W Px8 and the fact that they felt too heavy and looked too fancy. Not the best noise canceling but I actually appreciate that while at work.

[@8000860]

Unnatural bass boost on PX8? But fine on M4?!

An unexpected and welcome excursion into the more pedestrian market. These will be useful for so many folks and likely bring in some newcomers to the Darko-side.

[@bobhanuman65]

I ordered an open box Focal Bathys for $559 which is a great deal. While waiting for them I just went into Best Buy to see if I could get these to compare. While in there I was able to listen to the Sony MK5 that seemed really bassey and i put the AirPods Max on my head which I found terribly uncomfortable and just a bad fit. The last few hours with the Sennheiser have been very enjoyable and I think they are EXCELLENT. Connecting to bluetooth from Macbook Pro to iPhone to apple watch to Mac studio has been really easy., I'm excited to try the Bathys and see if it's worth the $300+ premium. I'll LYK what I decide. There was just a firmware update.

Not cutting the cord, I made a bit of splurge (at my socio-economic level) and recently got a pair of the venerable Sennheiser HD 600s. Factory new-old-stock (made in Ireland) sale: US$100 off and free shipping. They sound really, really good (as per their long established reputation) and are soooo much more comfortable than my even more venerable Stax SR-40 electret 'earspeakers' which are a literal pain on my squishy outer ears (but also continue to sound really, really good, even after over 4 decades). Happy listening, y'all!

you are spot on. audio on M4 is so good. bass is strong yet tight and controlled. much wider sound than Sonys or Bose.

[@ShejtanVrbaski]

When I saw this review about a year ago I decided to wait for M4 to go down in price and get them. And I finally did, few days ago. The sound is quite good. But ANC is practically non-existing on M4! I had to double check if I had transparency mode engaged by mistake but to my dissapointment ANC was correctly activated. All these small subtle sounds that you can hear for instance when living in an old appartment building - weak voices from neighbours speaking, tv-sounds, you know - subtle, distant "appartment building everyday sounds" will defeat the ANC on M4. On all other ANC headphones (in-ear or over ear) I own or have owned, even a 5 yr good old, worn down Sony WH1000XM3 (that i actually wanted to replace with M4) - as soon I hit the power button these background sounds would dissapear immidiately and i would get that "secure / isolated" feeling. Very dissapointed with my purchase (the in-ears TWS4 that I also own are great, though). I'll see if i can return them and ask for refund.

[@starbase218]

I almost feel like you're talking about the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 I just picked up. In terms of sound anyway. I had the Sony WF-1000XM4 before, but the Momentums just sound so much better. There is just so much information. Instruments like cymbals and drums sound so real. Almost too much to be honest, because I'm not always inclined to listen that way. But at the same time, I much rather have this than the other way around. And the bass is so good as well. Defined, without muddying up anything. Which is where the Sony's really struggled sometimes. The only real negative is that I can now hear when a recording isn't as good. So, that perhaps makes me enjoy some of my music a bit less. But at the same time, I enjoy other albums more.

You sold me on the M 4, currently on sale at Best Buys for $ 282.99😊Thanks for this awesome video, I know I'm 8 mos. late, but I was not on the market for headphone back then. 😂 Oh yeah, and you got yourself a new subscriber, Darn great review Sir.

[@fernandocompri]

I’m waiting for this super headphone launching here in Brazil! 🙏

[@TheSurfingAlien]

With Brazil's insanely high import taxes on electronic devices, the price of the Sennheiser Momentum 4 Wireless probably will bring tears to your eyes😭

[@vkvedam]

Thanks for the review, I have a PXC-550 II, they are brilliant in their own right (Got those for a steal of a price). My obvious upgrade would be these ones as Sennheiser headphones' tuning and tonality are very good.

[@VeitLehmann]

@@Endemoniada My PXC 550 also pretty much died (unreliable power switch, would sometimes just turn off if I move in a certain way), so I upgraded to the Momentum 4. Yeah, it's a no-brainer as a PXC 550 replacement, almost all aspects are improved, especially the sound. If you dial back the mids a little, the sound signature is very similar, but more spacious, detailed and refined. The earcups are a little shallower but still very comfortable.

Very nice and detailed review about sound quality. I totally agree. They sound much better than xm4 or xm5. For this price, these are a steal. For me, they sound better than h95. Don't know bathys sound, but i dont think they are 3x better for the price. Many reviewers say they sound similar. So this is definitely the best value headphone. Sound : 9 Comfort : 9 Anc : 9 Battery : 10

[@andrzejbruszkowski7237]

I agree with you. I tested Focal Bathys, PX 7S, PX 8, B&O H95, HX, Sony XM5, Beyerdynamic Amiron W and M4 as wins for me. closest, however, were Amiron. Only Hifiman Deva Pro and Edition XS combined with Fiio BTR 7 defeated the M4, but this is a different type of headphones.

[@dondox1290]

I listen to Edm, so do this comments apply

​@@andrzejbruszkowski7237 PX8? M4 is better, than PX8?!

[@daxuss]

superb review, thank you ! I am going to buy it.

[@sbenc]

Great video like always, this is final dot for my buy list

[@nomenclator4339]

Great review, just ordered mine !

[@lalawilson1988]

Music in between is top notch

[@less3117]

Great review and opinion. I just bought a pair of black/copper (special edition) Sennheiser MOMENTUM 4's. £220 from the big 'A' Can't wait for delivery tomorrow.

[@TrevorDodd-ev1sx]

I have ordered mine today and I am looking forward for them to arrive. I mainly use earbuds, but the reviews were too good not take a punt on them. I've been deliberating for days on what to buy.

[@34332]

I have the black ones, so a little envy pops up 😄 I'm sure you'll enjoy these.

[@Chan-zz9rs]

@@TrevorDodd-ev1sxyea. Stopping by Best Buy tomorrow morning to see if I can pick one up. Solely for return policy is easier than Amazon. But if they’re sold out, will buy on amazon tmr too.

[@less3117]

@@34332 Thanks. They look great, feel great and sound out of this world great. Most expensive phones I've bought, but worth it. They replace my wired JTS HP-535 studio monitors, with their heavy coiled lead. Very happy.

[@gunarstreikals2099]

Interesting to read everyone has a different opinion on sound of these anc Bluetooth headphones. Went to the shop and listened to xm5/px7s2/px8/bathys/momentum 4 and in the end was battling it between px7s2 and momentum4. I liked the sound nature of px7s2 more due to being more in your face than other ones, but was afraid that might get tired of it quickly, so bought momentum 4 and so far really happy )

[@8000860]

Why not PX8? I have same choice except Sony (those are just 💩) and Bathys (I don't like the design).

[@gunarstreikals2099]

Didn’t feel that px8 offered enough to offset the price in my case. But either are great no matter which ones you get

[@peterlundskow4061]

You helped me make my choice, thanks, they are also even more reduced price wise, what a deal!

[@rbseven2714]

thanks for the review, and some comments below are helpful. I just got the Mo 4's, and I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong with them. They sound sub par to me in a way I can't really explain. Muddy is one way, but also when I played some symphonic music, the cello's and strings sounded..... non smooth, a little distorted on the attack, just not good. I put on my wired, old headphones that were $150 10 years ago, and they had much better clarity and sound stage. So I know these have noise cancellation, and I think I turned that off, so just wondering if you all might think of something I've done wrong in settings. As I can't believe these have come fairly highly recommended and deliver such an unsatisfactory listening experience. They were def comfortable, but that was the most positive thing I can say. Sorry for the negativity, just looking for any feedback possible.

[@marcinsawicz5962]

I can only second your remarks. I have quite similar observations. Let me give some details in another post.

[@nietzschegustav1397]

Discovered your Chanel due sourcing out the fist Over ear headphone for my son … I am not an audiophile or anything like that . Just a average guy in his 40s who likes music . Really like your Chanel & your Personality. So it turned out that I bought the momentum 4 and I am pretty happy with them . Meanwhile it’s a 5 band eq in the Sennheisser App due updates .

[@AnnesleyPlaceDub70]

I'm late to the table regarding this review. Absolutely magnificent bit of education here, I've been debating between momentum 4 or xm5, I think the Senn's win out for me. Cheers👊🏼

[@steffen_rothammel_photography]

Thanks as always for making this 🙂

[@radoslawkatana6541]

I owned them for 2 wks and I completely agrre with you in terms of sound quality, it was a great pleasure and I miss that a lot. However, there was one thing that pushed me to return them. They were just not relible. I had huge problems in connecting them to app, but this wasn't something I coudn't stand... the biggest issue was with switching them on, every second day they were just dead, nothing was working. Now I have sony mx5 which are free of such an issues but I really really miss the sound of momentum 4 :(

[@rikardekvall3433]

John. Great explanation of the Momentum 4. As you use them daily, WE presume there is no issue with glasses.?? Have nice weekend to ya all.

[@rensverheij2323]

This review made me decide to go with the Sennheiser's. Thanks a lot!
