The Elite 10 Gen 2 is currently on sale for $200. It's not available in my country either (Elite 8/10 never came) but I've purchased them via a freight forwarder. Feels like a last of its kind type of earbuds (physical buttons, non-stem design, etc.), so might as well even if I forfeit the warranty. Thank you for your efforts, Jabra. It's a shame us consumers didn't pay you much attention when it mattered.

[@FatNorthernBigot]

When I first heard my Pi8's play "Get Lucky", I heard Nile Roger's funk guitar in perfect detail. The sound easily justifies the price, as I now enjoy going for walks, again.

[@aaronloudnwireless]

Bingo!

[@Pazuno]

I'm going to buy those jlab epic i heard the sound samples on your pro site and wow they sound so clear. Good timing as they're £120 in the UK for black Friday today!

[@aaronloudnwireless]

Wow

[@RandomGuyofc]

The Denon PerL Pro in my country is currently on sale for around $180. That is a fast grab. They went from 450 to 350 to now 280 and with black friday sale 180. Damn...

[@Rob-ey9hp]

Great review, waiting for delivery of the Pi8’s👍👍

[@aaronloudnwireless]

Nice! Thank you

[@Mcordovaa]

Great video, Do you think that the Soundcore liberty 4 PRO are far away in terms of sound quality from these earbuds? I'm thinking about buying them looking for bass.

[@aaronloudnwireless]

If it's for bass, those are great.

[@mikeevans7381]

Thanks Aaron i appreciate your list you are the 3rd reviewer to pick the Pi8s for best sound quality. And all 3 are my favorite channels so that's pretty much a wrap on that. I have to say that the Jlab sound sample made me stop what i was doing man the bass hits deep on those. Thanks again. 💯🙏🇺🇸

[@aaronloudnwireless]

Hey no problem. Appreciate you for following the content Mike. Thanks!

[@yockioktario2870]

Agree with ur selection Aaron. I bought the MTW3 and 4, XM5, Elite 10 and Elite 8 Active. My wishlist is Technics AZ80 for now. Thanks Aaron for your video, those make me to decide to bought the best earbuds 🎉

[@aaronloudnwireless]

You're most welcome! Nice collection :)

Are Bose Quietcomfort 2024 a great earbuds? Looking for my 1st premium earbuds within my budged ($200)

[@aaronloudnwireless]

They're not bad. Bose has come a long way. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mYW3eHSVqcShpZY

[@dubloduvlo3959]

Hello, in terms of sound quality, should I buy the Anker Liberty 4 TWS or the Jabra Elite 8 Active?

[@Salty.Peasants]

You didn't mention how both the Pi8's and the Denon's get much louder with minimal distortions than these budget headsets.

[@aaronloudnwireless]

It didn't factor into my assessment of quality because i rarely if ever go beyond 60%.

[@mukutta]

@@aaronloudnwireless Oh that´s very important info for me at least!

[@ThongNguyen-jh5mg]

Hi Aaron, Your commitment to assisting us in choosing the most beneficial ANC earbuds is greatly valued. My girlfriend inquired about my preferred ANC earbuds for my upcoming birthday. I currently own the Momentum 4 and all Bose items. I am contemplating between the Pi8, Px8, and Gemini II. Which option would you suggest? Should I inform her that I already have sufficient headphones and want an alternative gift?

[@aaronloudnwireless]

If it's just about ANC, of those you listed, definitely Gemini II.

[@Butterman9506]

Hi Aaron! Could you please review the Beyerdynamic Aventho 300 and the Amiron 300

[@IMHO88-dm1xf]

Looks like the Jabra Elite 10 G2 , one that you're missing in your collection is on the Black Friday sales on Amazon. Do you think you'll get it? I'm not sure about you in Singapore but it's free delivery for me. But I would still pick the Gen 1 because they supposed to have more bass.

[@aaronloudnwireless]

I did it.

[@IMHO88-dm1xf]

@aaronloudnwireless - cannot wait to hear what you think.

[@IMHO88-dm1xf]

@@aaronloudnwireless - Aaron, when you receive them will you please make a note if there's a firmware update after you first pair them up? If there is, please test what you usually test before the update and compare the new update? Just curious on what improvements are made. Thanks.

[@gauravsood592]

Own the Elite 10 Gen 1, like them for their comfort, and sound is good! ANC is decent but spatial audio is not impressive... That said these are a good overall package

[@aaronloudnwireless]

Good input

[@gauravsood592]

@@aaronloudnwireless need a suggestion. Should I upgrade to pi8 or stick to jabra. Also have you used Wavelet app with them? I also use my S24 ultra dolby atmos, the sound quality enhances with that option.

[@electroduval831]

My jabra elite 10 gen 1 are my daily driver. If i know i want to listen to music exclusively or I am at the gym, i go woth the Denon Perl Pro. And for over ear I grabbed the momentum 4. I really enjoy them, but i still think I get the best sound from the DPP despite the fact that they are buds.

[@aaronloudnwireless]

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@petermurage8685]

Hi, excellent review. I notice you don't mention the oneplus buds 3 pro and liberty 4 pro. Are theythat bad?

[@aaronloudnwireless]

Would be great to check my review of the Soundcores. The OnePlus isn’t launched in my country so can’t comment.

[@mikeevans7381]

The Soundcore Liberty 4 Pro and OnePlus Buds 3 pro are 130.00-150.00 Dollar earbuds that's midrange. The earbuds on Aaron's list are more expensive their flagship earbuds. 🤔🇺🇸

[@nexatio]

Hey. I dont know if you can get your hands on the Beyerdynamic Amrion 300 but if you can get a pair of them you should listen to them. I highly recommend them.

[@JoeGillian0]

Thanks i will look into them

[@mr_redus]

Aaron, thank you for providing the subtitles. All headphones have their advantages and disadvantages, but it's definitely important to understand that for the sound to be clear, the headphones need to fit comfortably in your ears without causing any discomfort. One of the main drawbacks of the Sony WF-1000XM5, in my opinion, is its ergonomics, although some people might find it comfortable. I would like to try the sound quality of the Sony WF-1000X M5 combined with the convenient fit of the Link Buds S.

[@aaronloudnwireless]

You’re welcome. Maybe that could be the next gen WF flagship? 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@AndrewYouTubehandle]

Nice review. All good ear buds. Despite having more expensive earbuds, I keep coming back to my Status Between ANC with their triple drivers, extra long battery life and for me fantastic fit. These work for every genre. They're half the price of the Bowers and Wilkens pi8 (which would be my new audio choice if my long lasting Status Between ANC ever give up on me! Though the airpods pro 2 with a bit of tweaking using personalisation, and using the "late night" EQ combined with their anc, transparency, pocketability and usability are hard to beat as an all rounder (using them on android and iOS).

I watch you with pleasure from Turkey. You are very successful in your job, congratulations. I will take your time for just one question. Liberty 4 PRO or Jabra Elite 10 (GEN 1)? What I am looking for is only sound quality.

[@knxheus]

DEVIALET Gemini 2, Bose qc ultra earbuds

[@jasonMB999]

I agree with gemini 2, the way he ignored it has to be a crime! However, the qc ultra can not be on this list, the sound on that is only basic...

[@Electrifize]

You should try B&O's earbuds as well, specifically the EX

[@shariz444]

Great video as always Aaron 👌🏻 Quick question, I was wondering where would the likes of Sony xm5 be in the IEM world? Any comparable IEM brand that can match or surpass the xm5 in purely sound quality? Thanks in advance.

[@aaronloudnwireless]

It's pretty tough to compare them to IEMs because the XM5s are a whole package, not a matching of different external components.

[@swaggerorangutan]

I’m thinking on getting the Jabra elite 10. I’m primarily going to use it for gaming. Do you think these earbuds are good for gaming?

[@aaronloudnwireless]

They're not purpose built for gaming but I don't see why not.

[@bellanewler6611]

Which is the earbuds for music and phone calls for under $150?

[@BaoNguyenucDuy]

B&O Beoplay Eleven is coming up as an upgrade of Beoplay EX. Hopefully it will be something against B&W Pi8 at the moment.

[@Flash363]

I've got the Jabra Elite 10 and the Jlab Epic Lab and i think i may be tone deaf cause i cant hear a difference in any of my 20 or so high quality earbuds ive owned.

[@aaronloudnwireless]

That's great, you like them all! 👍🏻

[@hectorperez4375]

I recently got the Elite 10 gen 1 and the only thing i dislike about them is that they dont go up so loud. I catch myself turning up my phone when listening to music but its already full volume

[@aaronloudnwireless]

You can consider Pi8 or Denon PERL Pro

[@altgamingopinion1974]

I cant decide between mtw4 and galaxy buds pro 3. I mostly listen to metal

[@oilalalet3181]

Compre os dois.

[@bidzam]

I got the mtw4 and I can say they are all rounders in terms of the different music genres.

[@aaronloudnwireless]

Galaxy Buds3 Pro is much brighter, Sennheiser more pensive and bass heavy.

[@__cagri__]

huawei freebuds pro 3, nothing ear (2024), Anker Soundcore Liberty 4 Pro which one do you think has the best sound quality

[@aaronloudnwireless]

Just for my tastes, Nothing Ear.

@aaronloudnwireless ❤️❤️❤️

[@raizel29]

In terms of ANC and Battery life should I go for the galaxy buds 3 pro or the pixel buds pro 2? And what is the ANC difference between them and the jabra elite 10?😅

Very little between them in terms of ANC. Battery life is better on the Pixel Buds.

I dunno are the pi8s worth £200 more than the perl pros is the question at the present price difference, id never buy sony after my xm4 had the battery drain issue after warantee and they failed to honour a replacement

[@aaronloudnwireless]

There's always the law of diminishing returns at play, and the Denons on promo are very attractive too.

[@user-sq5dc6og6u]

Frankly, I am very disappointed with Bowers and Wilkins. I bought them because of your comparison which says they are the best. The old ones are jabras elite 10 and frankly the sound is equally good between the two. I am a professional musician and I have a good ears. Not to mention that the Bowers cost twice as much as the Jabras. And the worst part is that the silicones I use with the Bowers, even taking the largest ones, the left side falls off very easily. And obviously I can't go running with it without it falling off. While with all my previous earpods Apple Pro 1 Apple Pro 2 the Sony MX4 and the jabras elite 10, I never had to change the silicones. I always kept what they are mount with, the medium size. Even in terms of comfort the Jabras are better. I am really very disappointed with the Bowers, they are not worth their very high price at all.

[@willentrekin]

I get sticking with out-of-the-box tuning for reviews and discussion, but you open the video noting how subjective sound quality is -- and then the two earbuds that do personalization best (the Denons and Sennheisers) are relegated to honorable mention. The Sennheisers absolutely blow the Ace 2s away, e.g. Honestly, we've seen that what's starting to taking smartphone cameras to the next level is software, not hardware, and earbuds could go the same route in terms of processing.

[@aaronloudnwireless]

Appreciate the input

Winner is ALWAYS the one that fits the best. Hands down. I've experienced a lot of earbuds but if they don't stay in your ears, give you big ear fatigue, pain or discomfort and so on. Well then their SQ means nothing. It's like having the best bike without a saddle, it can be superb in all categories but if you can't use it for long or whatever. Then it is U.S.E.L.E.S.S.. Sorry to bomb the comment section with a message like this but a lot of these earbuds I see are *ss in the ear.
