Ive had the MDR-1AM2 for a month now. Theyre the perfect headphones for on the go. Comfy, great bass/mids/highs. Absolutely blown away. Performs great connected directly to my phone, and absolutely shines with the Fiio Q5 as a mobile dac/amp.

[@vnrays3775]

TostiTostelli have you tried the balanced sound? I’m quite fond of the Sony 4.4 Balanced to my Z5 from my ZX300, it’s a huge upgrade in term of sound. And IF the 1AM2 sound much better on Balanced than that should be the go for me in replace of my B&O H6

[@TostiTostelli]

I havent tried the balanced sound yet sadly, since i dont have a dac/amp that has a balanced 4,4 out. But even on the regular 3,5mm i'd comfortably pick these over any closed-back dynamic headphones under 500 euros.

[@hameedn.b7004]

TostiTostelli i know its a closed back but how wide is the soundstage

[@TostiTostelli]

hameed N.B Soundstage is there. its not narrow. but dont expect a great big open soundstage out of these.

[@robertnoblitt518]

I just bought the Sony MDR-1AM2 today, primarily to use with my Samsung Tab S3 tablet. So far, I am amazed at the sound quality. Also, they are very comfortable. My tablet has an audio equalizer. The Sony phones seem to sound best with the lowest and highest frequencies reduced by 1 db. Vocals, percussion, plucked instruments sound wonderful. To compare them, I have a several years old Sennheiser HD 600. The Sennheiser may be more tonally neutral, but I prefer listening to the Sony. It makes me smile. 😀 Eventually, I realized I needed a better source device to match the quality of the Sony headphones, so I bought a Sony NW-WM1A Premium Walkman. I use it to play high-resolution FLAC files. These 2 products were made for each other and are amazing together. The sound is as perfect as I have ever experienced. They connect with a balanced cable, and yes, this makes an audible improvement. Also the frequency response seems flatter than I heard using my phone or tablet as the player. With the Walkman, I don't use its equalizer, preferring its Direct mode, for maximum clarity and detail.

[@maytassuaysompol7804]

Robert Noblitt do you know a free audio equalizer app for iPhone I can install to adjust the high and the low frequencies?, I just bought the Sony MDR-1AM2 in Adorama Camera.

[@robertnoblitt518]

@@maytassuaysompol7804 Sorry, my phone is a Samsung Galaxy S7, that has an equalizer built-in. I don't know much about iPhones.

[@maytassuaysompol7804]

Robert Noblitt Thank you for replying

[@roeslan1969]

@Robert Noblitt, thank you for bringing NW-WM1A into the picture. I tested this with 1AM2 with balanced cable, etc @ Sony store 2 weeks ago & it sounds fantastic. You are really making me wanting to get NW-WM1A to match with my 1AM2 but at this point, way too much off my budget. Maybe someday.. :-)

[@abrahanneyra1657]

a question, what about soundstage ? are they intimate like hd600s? im looking for big large soundstage in closed headphones, i have the oppos pm3 but now i dont want narrow soundstage, thanks (i also have the wm1a)

[@Jorge.O85]

With 16 Ohms they must be loud as hell ! Love that ! 🔊🎶🎶 i will buy them couse 16 Ohms are the best for any device or hardware.

[@HOTSPEEDMike]

I've had 1A, but got rid of them due to bass overshadowing other frequencies, especially mids. This is supposedly fixed in 1AM2. You didn't mention any problems with bass, so I guess they finally fixed it :)

[@Rawteeth]

have you tried it and how did it turn out?

[@mzamroni]

The connector is not proprietary but the rim size is very small that is not easy to find compatible cable. I have the older 1A with same drawback.

[@maxxfatal]

Great review......... and that Arnold impression is spot on 😁

[@moedot7]

LOOOOOL

[@KronStaro]

[@indysbike3014]

I have the MDR-1A and the connection on the headphone is proprietary although it looks like it is an ordinary 3.5mm connection. I like the sound quality, clear highs and quality bass. Comfort is also good, also for people who wear glasses like me. But the cable is too short, 1.25m is just enough for my desktop pc.

[@lukashavel7690]

Great review! Btw Panasonic rp-hd10e are very similar (also low impedance high res closed headphones) and not many people know them (they have like 5 amazon reviews). They are also quite pretty and cheap! :) Audio-Technica MSR7 are also similar, but they are 35 Ohm already. So better for mixed (home/outside) use and they could already use an external Amp. Anyway keep up the good work! ;)

[@MrAM4D3U5]

Hey , great video very helpful! I just brought back my Airpods Max to the Best Buy and exchanged them for an Audioquest Dragonfly Red + a pair of these headphones. Your video helped me make my choice, thanks!

[@endezeichengrimm]

I own the MDR1A version and it is amazing. The bass could be a bit tighter. I was hoping they would improve that on the next version (MDR-1AM2).

[@mrgee918]

M2 are tighter as they don't go as low as the 1a. They out perform the 1a on the mids and highs, and give more detail.

[@endezeichengrimm]

Hmmm, I will have to try them when they become available in the shops.

[@jacobfield4848]

Sony MDR-1AM2 vs Focal Listen Pro? Which is best?

[@renzyy6179]

Finally!! I really appreciate the review!!

[@echoed61]

ended up returning mine for MDR1As, as the fit isn't right. The sound is great, of course. I think the balanced cable is just a marketing gimmick for the Walkman (but I need to go and listen to them in a shop). The one local Bic Camera in my town has one Walkman on display with these cans and the battery was run down! I am praying that the fit of the MDR-1As is the same as my earlier MDR-1Rs - because they were perfect. Or at least not as slimline as the MDR 1AM2s! At the very least, this aborted buy made me knowledgeable about what balanced wiring is. For anyone wondering, the MDR1 AM2s ARE comfortable - and light - for sure, but I am really sensitive to phones and they enclose my ears, which I don't like. If the MDR -1A does the same, I will just have to lump it. Thanks for your intelligent review, Damir. Mach's gut!

[@DunnGolfing]

They look really light and flexible 👍

[@Breaky717]

Hi Damir. I own both this one and the 1A, for this price the 1A is better value for money. But the soundstage of the new ones is like you said more balanced.

[@ErykDante]

How does the M2 compare to the 1A in terms of sound? I own the 1a's now but it is starting to break.. so I am keeping a close look at the M2.

[@lennartzasckar139]

[@ErykDante]

thanks! I will see if I can test it somewhere

[@illestmuzik]

@@ErykDante any luck? my 1a has broke on both sides now and im looking to upgrade

[@ErykDante]

@@illestmuzik Hi, I own the M2 since pretty much 2 years now and they have been amazing ever since. Even wearing them while writing this haha. I swore by the originals until I got these. In short: The sound signature of the M2 is adjusted to be a little bit more clear and wide, while having a little bit less bass than the previous version. Which suits my taste. They are comfortable to wear for long sessions. Also extremely light. I got my pair for € 140,- but I noticed that they got a lot more expensive these days. The thing is that I would gladly pay 200+ for these. This is just a summary, but if you have any specific questions, let me know.

[@eriktiedgen9442]

Great review. And I agree more or less with your points. The Sound is fine and comfort unparalleled. Unfortunately I had to return my Philips Fidelio L2 due to bad stitching on the earcups. They Sound fantastic and are beautiful. I miss them.

After this review and the mention in your last video of the Nfb-11 (a review of this would be great, giving also some import details) I just subscribed. How does this compare to the b&o h6? I returned the first version of the mdr1a due to the boomy and uncontrolled bass (and I like bass quite a bit) but certain albums like the dark side of the moon were ruined. They were great for gaming tho. Keep up with this good work!

Hi. Thanks for the video. I'm torn between this and wh-1000mx3... : I will only ever use a wired connection for a headphone, my head is kind of small, my ears are a bit big and stick out (would these be comfortable?), I use my smartphone to connect to headphones, and music file format is .mp3 although im thinking of getting spotify premium for higher quality music files (that would be downloaded into my phone at the highest quality, not streamed) And I am a student but dont care too much for the NC. any suggestion on which one to get? also, can google assistant be activated when holding down the button on the wire with the in-line remote? I would like that a lot. Thanks for your time.

Reduce the bass from 32-250hz by 3db, 500-4k by 2db, 8k by 1db and leave 16k at baseline and you will hear details like on studio headphones, the only thing really missing is the soundstage, but I really like them as portable headphones for going out and listening to music in bed because they are so light and comfortable.
