Best in ear Bluetooth headphones??

 

I posted about it a few weeks ago, but I'm loving my Jaybird X3s. I usually only have one earbud in at a time, but the sound is pretty awesome when I have both

 

+1 on the Jaybirds

 

I've got the x2 and also recommend

 

So I just upgraded from Bose QC15s to Master & Dynamic MH40s and holy crap, I'm hearing things in songs I've never even noticed before. Nothing major but just smaller things I couldn't pick up on with my other ones. Super well rounded too. I tested them out just on shuffle and any genre I played sounded great.

 

Anyone have good recommendations for car speakers? Just bought a new one today and the only thing I'm not stoked on is the sound, clips at high volumes and does this awkward thing to lower the output to compensate.

 

the wire on my apple EarPods tore today. anyone have any recommendations for bluetooth buds of similar quality?

 

Can anyone recommend good set of over-the-ear bluetooth headphones and/or bluetooth stereo transmitter? I'm looking in the $50-80 range for the headphones.

 

I cannot recommend any wireless audio. They all suck.

 

What about MPow bluetooth headphone? i am using it for couple months and the sound is quite okay.

 

What are people's opinions on Sonos? Are they worth the money? I've always liked the idea but don't know to many people that have ever got them.

 

My cousin has his whole house rigged up and it sounds amazing. Super, super pricey. But...if I had a house, I'd do it.

 

Only person I know that has one is a tech nerd. But he got one years ago when it first came out and I've never heard of anyone else getting them afterwards but they seem nice but obviously pricey.

 

Got my ELAC Debut B6 months ago. The only thing that makes me interested is the name of Andrew Jones on it. I used to be a fan of Pioneer and i am really looking for this one. First, i am really worried with the bass because i am a bass lover and it seems that the bass reproduction seems incompetent even though for 300 dollars, the performance is so spectacular. Performance was good on the entire frequency spectrum with clear treble. Not seems interesting at first, but looks promising after see this review.

 

In the market for nice headphones. Want to pay approx. $180 or so. Recs?

 

Audio Technica ATH-M50X

 

Thank you!

 

Looking to get a receiver and I'm not sure what I want. Was hoping to stay under like $200 and I don't mind going used if I need to.

Right now I'd be using it for just two bookshelf speakers for listening to tv/my record player but i think I'd like to get a sub/surround speakers later on so preferably 5.1 channels. Any good advice/recs? Does this make sense?

Denon is always a good buy.

 

Thanks!! That's the exact one I had in my cart, it looks perfect for what I want and it's the budget pick at the wirecutter right now.

Just wasn't sure if that was smarter value-wise than finding a used one for cheaper

 

So I stalled on buying that Denon receiver, checked today and the price dropped from $195 to $167 :) It's on the way!

 

I have Bose Companion 2 Series II computer speakers hooked up to my 21" iMac. One sits right next to my iMac screen and gets this static noise randomly coming from it even if there is no audio coming. Could there be some weird interference occurring since it's so close?

 

I’m looking to get a set of noise cancelling headphones and I want a pair that are going to last and sound great, etc. I’ve looked online at ones recommended but whenever I read reviews there seems to always be comments on some breaking after long use or they’ve been reviewed only after a few days of use which isn’t ideal as I’m wanting to know they will last for a long time. Any recommendations would be appreciated and ignored you have had your headphones for ages and can still give them too marks that would be beneficial, haha. Thank you in advance.

 

That should be “if” instead of “ignored” and “top” instead of “too” haha

 

I want to make an educated purchase of true wireless earbuds (lower price range than Airpods).

Anyone with experience?
