stellar content! love the effort you put into these vids

[@CarMumel_Anthony]

BT reviews are great.. i can feel and see the veracity on each reviews i watch.. ✌👍👌

[@xorion123]

Loud intro music but cant hear you talking till i raise my volume

[@BTaesthetics]

Thanks for letting me know xorion. I actually have a new mic coming in tomorrow can't wait to get better audio on these videos!

[@xorion123]

Thanks for quick response btw i just want some say some quick question Does your wh-1000xm2 have any crack on the hinge so far and how often you use so far cause i planning to get one

[@BTaesthetics]

No problem bro! After people were reporting a broken headband I actually tried to stretch them and break the band and I couldnt do it.. You really have to sit on these or abuse them to break them in my opinion.

[@xorion123]

BTunPlugged some report even just by leaving there it will leave a small crack line near the side of the hinge but so far the internet haven't post a broken hinge or spoiled 1k-xm2 then the previous dmr 1k-x

[@snakeisekans]

xorion123 I’ve heard that only a couple (hundred?) mdr1000x’s had the broken hinge problem

[@markgilespolon8195]

Thanks for this review. Big help looking for the headphones for bass.. more comparison to come

[@Darkplasmax]

Great video! always wanted a comparison between their respective predecessors, but we got a comparison of the latest versions. Had the opportunity to try both, and agree, the XB's are more suitable for electronic music, or hip-hop, but you'll have some lack of detail on other genres, whereas the M2's will sound a bit better and get more detail on every track. Also, while the bass boost on the m2's isn't as powerful as the XB's it sounds a bit cleaner or natural for me. The XB's are very enjoyable with heavy bass music though. I enjoy both headphones a lot.

[@user-we9pt4xg4j]

I listen to metal,will the xbs be enough even with the bass boost to satisfy my bass needs?

[@dbrfour]

I hope you get more exposure soon, your content is really well done, and you've got great production value! :)

[@shawnorjiakor]

I got the Sony MDR-950B1 (which the non noise- cancelling version) and they sound good, but they don't get as loud as I like it. I would wish the Sony Connect app could give the 950N1 and 950B1 that equalizer feature.

[@xaviercraven3030]

Shawn Orjiakor the 950N1 does have an app for them, not sure about the B1 tho. Also the fact that the B1 doesn’t get loud enough for you might be a manufacturer fault, I did it with a pair of my headphones before And they sent me new ones.

[@jackvanstein1645]

[@BornLiveandDieby]

So, through the app, you can increase the bass on the N1's and M2's. When the M2's are on maximum bass, what is it compared with on the N1's between -10 and 10 (0 is bass boost button off, 10 is maximum bass, -10 is least bass)?

[@liamfernandes2760]

Great vid man!

[@shayantale]

thx man I am so relieved 😌I was like oh new product from I have to get that then I watched ur video I stay with 950b1 😁

[@kotong8090]

How’s the 950b1 for normal listening since it’s just the n1 but less portable because I can afford it and find it more comfortable than any other headphones

[@msjonyba1234]

Or, OR, OR. Both. :D That's my plan. I was torn between the M2s and the QC35ii"s since last December, but I think I've decided to go with the M2's after all. I LOVE that bass, and being able to control the amount of NC + bass I hear is very appealing, espeically considering the fact that I will use them for studying, so blocking out voices is espeicially important to me. Plus, that quick attention feature is very appealing We'll see how I feel come June, when I have the money to buy them. XD

[@kylemartin8139]

which did you get

[@Gunny_101st]

Just bought the N1s and they are phenomenal. And for 130, WELL worth it.

[@gustavsk6096]

Have them too. The only problem is their size and shape so I want to switch. Everything else is good tho

[@levil4012]

I think the N1’s have the better sound and they’re louder than the M2’s, the M’2’s just LOOK better, but before I decide on the N1’s I want to try the M’3’s bcuz I like the slimmer look

[@MohitKumar-pl1hp]

from where did you buy them so cheap ? plz let me know

Thank you!

[@GMT2019]

Can you do a review with the Sony wh-1000xm2 vs B＆W px active noise cancelling headphone?

[@sasproductions701]

im not sure what model of sony to go for, i want it bluetooth as bluetooth is my favourite because its louder output in bluetooth mode. i only want to spend like 80 to 120 130 maybe on a new pair of headphones as my akg y45bt headset is falling apart and that cost me like 80. i have a pair of audio technica m40x i use for making music but i wouldn't take them out or use with my phone. the sound from phone is worse than from my audio interface. i am not also keen on the sound from my m40x its like not enough bass going on, its enough but not enough to stand out. so what would u say my next pair of better headphones should i get for a bit more money than 80. noise canceling would be a nice one but i don't really need it. i also have a sony xz premium 5 which has nice equaliser features. but i never been a fan of sony sound products and i found them to be too tinny. so maybe the extra bass model i should look at. but i don't want that feeling i heard about dre beats where bass is too much. i even tried my mates 300 pound dre beats and thought the same. the sony has a extra bass button. so from button off its nice bass, then when u put bass on its like dre beats bass? im also looking at the WH800 headphones for 100 pounds. theres also wh ch700n model for 109. im after the best sounding headphones for mainly uk grime music instrumentals and hip hop rap and stuff. any help guys?

[@pratapsingh-mg5wx]

Is Ear cup size same

[@DiogoReis]

The 1000x are already better, have compared them side by side and kept the 1000x, that meanwhile I have trade for the newer 1000xm2 that are even better! No chance the 1000xm2 are the best wireless headphones to get!

[@tombibby8722]

What's the intro music? Good helpful video by the way

[@c.enkhnaash8370]

Please tell me if m2s are good at hip hop music plzzz!

[@edwardavery1433]

Yo could you help me. I know on a scale of 1-10, the n1s are a 10 in bass. If you had to rate the m2s in bass what would you. I’m a bass lover but if the m2s have good bass I will just get those. Thanks!

[@joaomariaalpoimcolaco5049]

same situation... im a huge bass lover but i love that awesome noise cancelling too, and i like the design better, so i wouldnt mind buying the m2 instead in terms of costs.

[@dr.strange5419]

I would give the M2's a 7. It does have superior sound quality though, more clarity in the highs and mids, plus the sound stage is excellent. Listen to some Pink Floyd and Jimi Hendrix and it's quite magical with the sound stage.

[@jaybrielakoi7747]

I’ve tried all of these and they seem fantastic. I just worry about durability. They don’t feel durable to me.

[@Atomicwarfear]

Got both. The 1000XM2 for general use, and the XB950N1 for gym

[@annmorgan6469]

I like this review as he did not mess around and got straight to the point. I will be returning to this reviewer also as he was clear and articulate (despite wearing a hat while in side the house)

[@vjlva]

I currently have the MDR-XB950BT and want to updrage to WH-1000XM2 but I need to know if those headphones have enough punchy bass. I'm a bass addict and this is very important to me, do they shake your head like the XB950BT? I don't want to purchase them and be disappointed, please, I need to know. 🤔

[@vjlva]

@Maciek Skórnik so, will you purchase them?

[@alemanivan3]

@@vjlva if your a bass head I would not recommend the wh1000x2. I also have the xb950bt and just recently bought wh1000x2, 2 different headphones. The wh1000x2 is clear and balance bass also is not loud as the xb950bt.

[@alemanivan3]

@Georg-Andri Liivak ''0" I end up returning them. Every time I crank up the volume, the bass hit activating the anc chip, not a pleasant sound it distorts the song when bass hits.

[@alemanivan3]

@Georg-Andri Liivak I haven't get chance to play with the them.

[@alemanivan3]

@Georg-Andri Liivak Yes the n1 are better for bass

[@coxyhd2416]

Can you wear both at the gym and sweat like mad

[@achanner2004]

i had same issue i stuck with sony 950

[@Amr1Elnaka]

Remember the blue Sony hear.on NC headphones? If you still have them around, how do they compare in noise cancelling and sound quality? 🤔

[@BTaesthetics]

Amr Elnaka hey Amr. What I didn't like about the Sony hear on is the max volume was so low and the NC wasn't the best. I don't recommend them but they are coming out with a 2nd version this month that I think will be way better

yeah, I just got the 950N1 and I'm really happy about it. I had a set of MDR 14, old old headset, and I actually think they were better, even with the base. I'm returning. Not sure what to buy yet though. Back to watching reviews. :p
