Bang And Olufsen H95 Review - The $800 ANC Headphones

Excellent review, as always :) One thing that I am missing is sound comparison from the Android phone and not an iPhone due to APTX support, that brings huge difference between sound capabilities and how to adjust the H95.

[@niharroy8132]

Thanks a lot for the review 😃👍✌️

[@Doofunator]

If you truly start looking into high-end headphones, $800 is an introductory price. Own a pair of the older H9i’s and compared to the Sony XM4’s, sound quality isn’t even close. Sony’s are very muddy and messy. ANC is better on the Sony, but I’m also not using it everyday. These are not for the average consumer, these are for someone looking for insane build quality, and exceptional sound. Also, I love B&O’s house sound.

[@Ipuffyy]

He talks about the bass shaking better on the Sony but forgets to add how terrible the bass on the Sony's are.

[@madagaska9011]

A year back I went to a store to pick out a pair of Anc headphones. Only used Bose and heard about Sony before then, was a complete newbie in audio equipment. So I went around the store and tried every pair, the h9i just stuck out as the winner. There was something different about them, I felt that their clarity is on another level compared to the more artificial sounding Sony’s and Bose. Huge fan of B&o since then, and I didn’t even know they made headphones before that day lol

[@matteventu]

Excellent review, thank you :) Btw, the first to introduce the dial for volume (and media control) were the Plantronics BackBeat Pro, to which the Surface Headphones have been inspired :D And the dial is very solid too, doesn't wiggle and is not loose like the H95 one, that's a major disappointment :-/

[@Eleventhearlofmars]

I have the H95 and the dials on the earcups are not loose on my set, they have a very nice sweeping glide that feels very high end, much like the controls on the wonderful Apple AirPods Max have that luxury feel. The sound from both these headphones is superb. I love both for different reasons with the APMs having better comfort imo, H95 earcups are slightly too small for total comfort and tend to press on the bottom of my earlobes creating discomfort after long listening periods. Both headphones get condensation buildup and I always clean them with a lint cloth after use to avoid water damage because I’ve heard both companies are a bit dodgy in accepting responsibility for damage through condensation eroding the drivers, I’ve heard some people have had issues with Apple and B&O where they won’t repair or replace headphones that are damaged within a few months through condensation damage on the drivers.

[@criticalshot516]

Can you disable the ANC and the Transparency Mode. Whan you put it in the middle and get the chime; is is purely passive?

[@sudarshanmaharaj]

From what others are saying these headphone blow the xm4s and bose out of the water in terms of sound quality and build quality, if you like a muddy bass go for the sony, if clarity and a well rounded sound is what your after go with the b&o

[@alexanderkim4889]

That's actually not a very high bar. There are plenty of wireless headphones that sound WAY better and have better build quality for roughly the same price. The Sennheiser Momentum 3 is a great example, and, from what I hear, it recently got a firmware update that makes the ANC nearly as good as the Bose NC700). If you're into B&O, the Beoplay HX are $500.00 but just look, sound, and feel so good (I owned a pair). If you want something closer in price to the XM4 or Bose NC700, the previous generation, the Beoplay H9 3rd Gen, are now steeply discounted while looking and sounding nearly identical (main difference is in the Bluetooth generation and some features).

[@Eleventhearlofmars]

@@alexanderkim4889 I own the H9 3rd gen and the H95 and my personal opinion is the sound has been tweaked on the drivers of the H95 and sound much better to my ears, I can hear things on some tracks that I never thought existed on the H95 that I cannot on the H9. I’d also add that the apple airpods max are right up there in terms of build quality and sound quality with the H95. I love both H95 and APM and always look forward to listening to my music collection or a good live concert with either of them.

[@JLlilhampton]

I got those recently, perfect fit, perfect sound, nothing neck straining (my first test was listening to music for about 8 hours). Battery life is epic and the design is unbeaten on the market. They are expensive, however for me they work.

[@Lennart942]

Actually, i think bang and olufsen copyed the dials from their own Beosound 5 from 2007.

[@severnsea]

I don't think anybody is copying anything, there re only so many ways you can implement a volume control on a set of headphones.

[@solenpetel2732]

Why didn't do ANC comparison with ANC leaders but some entry level headphones?

[@mrfrosty3]

Great review. Agree about that case, makes for a lovely gift experience but not great for flying. I wonder who the OEM is for these, the volume dial and the way the earpieces attach to the headband look similar to the Surface headphones. They look like a great product but their performance doesn't warrant them being $550usd more than the Surface headphones. These are definitely a luxury product, you pay for how they look, the packaging and the brand name which I am fine with, I like luxury stuff. For the money though you could get comparable performance with another ANC headphone and a pair of really outstanding audiophile headphones. But that misses the point of them.

[@fancypants5490]

[@adamkijko4341]

vs b&o h 9 3 gen and px7 difrence comparision ?

[@mtndrewstevens885]

Can you review the Master and dynamic mw65? I feel like they would compete with these considering they are expensive as well.

[@richardw1992]

The MW65 are phenomenal sounding headphones. Completely different to anything else in M&D's line up in terms of sound quality. I compared them to pretty much all other consumer wireless headphones and they were leaps and bounds above. A very flat, controlled and detailed sound signature, the treble is incredibly resolute yet somehow still silky smooth. The bass is also the best I've heard in a consumer headphone, no boom or bloat that is present in pretty much every other consumer headphones (e.g. Sony WH1000, B&W PX7, Sennheiser Momentum 3, B&O H9). I really really recommend auditioning a set of the MW65s and I'm sure you will be blown away. The only downside is these headphones only sound good on ANC, with ANC disabled the internal amplifier is bypassed and some EQ wizardry is obviously lost. They don't sound bad without ANC, just a bit flat in comparison with a more forward mid range. Despite all of the above I ended up buying the Jabra Elite 85H as imo they were the next best sounding headset in the market (very flat frequency response) and half the price of all the competition. I'm waiting for the MW65 to reach a sensible price on eBay before I get a set.

[@jarjared3522]

The Beoplay H95 tops the MW65 in every regard for me. I own both, but Bang & Olufsen really did knock it out of the park with the H95. I even have a hard time going back to my old Bowers & Wilkins PX again.

[@Jim-qc6gu]

My MW65’s are arriving tomorrow, will try to give a review later.

[@johnhaydock1577]

I own both and it's no competition. The H95's win hands down. They have a more warmish sound signature and their ANC is miles above the MW65, which was not that great. The MW 65's also have smaller earpads, so the H95's are way more comfortable. I don't think you can really compare the two, the H95's are head and shoulders above.

I'm using "bright" eq setting on my xm4 with ldac and Dolby atmos movie mode and it really sound perfect

[@h1a8]

@@batu_cagan ldac doesn't make a difference. If the source is aac then ldac will result in worst quality than using aac. This is because aac to aac conversion is lossless. But anything over 256kbps is indistinguishable for humans. No human (AFAIK) has successfully double abx 256kbps file from original.

[@ioakimgiagtzidis7372]

Even if stock sound of H95 is superb, when it comes to the ultimate sound experience with headphones you definately need a proper, professional EQ... especially if you want to squeeze the uncomparable, high end sound of the H95s coming from portable devices. Believe me, this makes a big difference.

[@daniegeorge1204]

Its depends on whether you're looking at wired or wireless audio quality...wired quality is basically the same and just depends on the quality of headphones used....wireless however depends on the audio codecs used....iphones use AAC exclusively while a wider range of codecs ( sbc, aac, aptx, aptx hd, ldac..etc) are available for android users. You just have to pick the headphone which support the codecs you need ( all headphones support sbc and aac...)

All Apple devices (ios) are exclusively AAC....so even though the headphone supports LDAC...it has to use aac....thus lowering the quality...also LDAC is Sony's own proprietary codec so the xm4's perform best on LDAC

Hey I have the Sennheiser Momentum 3s and man I'm not disappointed. These headphones have the best sound quality I've heard so far in headphones. They have an impressive instrument separation and wide sound stage, and the bass is amazing! I would highly recommend to download the app so you could add even more bass if you want. Their battery isn't that great you do have to charge it constantly but I can live with that. The ANC on the Momentum 3s is kind of lacking, but at least it doesn't change the sound quality when turned on which is great for me. Overall I would highly recommend the Momentum 3s if you're top priority to a pair of headphones is sound quality. Hope that helped.

The thing is, at that level or higher, it's not just about the headphones. To get your money's worth out of expensive, audiophile grade headphones, the entire chain has to be high quality. Start out with lossless music files...or Tidal Masters, plug your source into a very good DAC, run that into a very good headphone amp, and then listen to your Elex. You should hear a major difference between it and your Momentum 3's. If not, then your ears are the limiting factor, and your wallet thanks you.

@@edwinramos4910 I think that amp stuff is BS. I purchased several amps over the years (from $50 to $300) and all they do is make the headphones louder. The neutral amps (one's that don't color the sound) don't change the sound one bit. The focal elex runs plenty loud on my ipad pro 10.5 (last one with headphone jack) without an amp. Trying all my neutral amps and the sound isn't any better.

I got a pair of these brand new for half the retail. Pair them with an EQ and these are legit. Material is definitely near luxurious. Worth $800? Probably not...these cans are good if you set them up correctly

[@Bermatingen]

I buy one H95 and still happy with the H95, but B&O hase exchange the first device, no electronic problem, only the head cushion from the headband came off in the end I got a brand new one, but until then the repair and support process in Germany was pure horror I had to call countless times because I always got a UPS return label without a barcode this all took from 11 April 2021 to middle July 2021 !!! the purest horror !!! That is the reason why I prefer to buy from amazon, because something like this can normally be done in a few days I don't know exactly how much anymore, but a few phone calls were necessary The B&O support staff (Germany) were always really, really nice, but in the end it doesn't help if the logistics partner wrong Now I have made a protection around the fabric of the hanger The head cushion, like the ear cushions, should also be able to be removed for cleaning, then everything would be perfect Otherwise the best headset I have ever had in terms of sound, I would buy it again

Plus, get the ANC cranked and go walk around any city or, worse, ride a bike or scooter. You’re life expectancy could plummet as a result.

[@russianbismark8233]

xm4 are $350 so you wont complain about its shortcomings. But you’ll nitpick a lot about the $800 headphone and that would ruin the experience.

What was the point of comparing the ANC of $800 headphones vs entry level Sonys and the mediocre and much less expensive Microsoft Surface 2's? It makes it seem like GYMCADDY was purposely trying to make the B&O H95's noise cancelling ability look better than what it really is.

[@bangolufsen8687]

the batteries will die before case is deeply scratched ... so .................... don't get your point about the case

[@TheAscendedTechNinja]

As a pair of 800$ ANC headphones I would be sending these right back even tho there only 95 pairs made the sound quality should blow away any pair of Anc headphones they should have a professional equalizer option as well and the volume nob wiggles but a pair of 250 dollars Microsoft headphones feels better and the sound still is in the 400 dollar range it a no for me.

[@jensole2645]

I Think you should try them before you jump to conclusion about the sound... the speaker unit is 100% titanium and I’ve tried everyone of the headphones in this video. No one have beaten the H95

[@TheAscendedTechNinja]

@@jensole2645 Yes It would help to actually hear them but the reviews I watched they sound great but they don't blow away the competition and also I don't jump to conclusions I analyze them to make judgment because when I do start my own channel I have to include the pros and cons and see which one outweighs the other and what I see for 800 dollars unless you're a Bang & Olufsen fan you should pass

[@wall-e7179]

Lol I always chuck out the carry case. Such a waste because some of them are so well made.

[@GTAON777GTAVIDEOS]

Okay, these may be better and more premium in certain areas than the Sony XM4s, but more than twice the price better?!... no, definitely not. If you're looking at value, the Sonys are the best choice. If you have the money and you find the premium nature of the H95s appealing, then I can see why they're a draw, they do look really good, although a few things about them bother me, such as the dial perhaps not feeling as premium as it could've done. It's like comparing a Mercedes with a Rolls Royce... they might be comparable in some areas, but ultimately, they both have extremely different design approaches and target audiences. Whichever audience you fall into, the other side won't make sense. I had a demo of the H95 in store, and they were incredible... but, in all honesty, if I had $800 to spend (which I don't) , I'd much sooner buy two pairs of XM4 and take my girlfriend out for a meal so I could get her drunk and tickle her ribs back home at midnight... sorry B&O!!! 😁 😂

[@severnsea]

Absolutely spot on. I have the XM3, and did buy a set of B&O as I've not treated myself to any new audio stuff in a while, but in the end I didn't think they were that much better than the XM3, let alone the XM4. Overall I can't fault the sound of course, but I can and did fault the loose fitting volume dial (mine was far worse than the one in the video), and I sent them back. Definitely not worth the premium price for me.

[@Eleventhearlofmars]

Your girlfriend should commend your sophistication fella, get her drunk and tickle her ribs indeed. 😂 I’d much rather buy my gf a set of H95 and take her for a meal then I’d know she’s on her knees before me in the bedroom. 😮😊

$800 for headphones that weight that much is ridiculous. I don’t know about anyone else but I like to wear my headphones while out walking or riding my scooter and this is just too intrusive. Second if I’m buying OTE then I want OTE in adult size. I use to love B&O headphones now they seem like any other overpriced headphones. You didn’t touch on whether you had to download their app like you need to do with some of the other headphones? I won’t purchase any headphones that an app is required because it just silly to Clutter up my phone if I don’t plan on using it with my phone. These seem a no-go for me. One more thing, that case is ridiculously large, it should be a soft case to carry in a backpack.
