I received my P100s a couple of days ago and the first thing that I noticed immediately was some degree of sibilance but after playing with the app presets and making slight adjustments they now sound absolutely superb. I have the Melomania 1+ earbuds and they are why I bought the P100 because I just love the sound signature of the earbuds but the battery is degrading slightly so rather than get the M100s I went for the P100. No regrets buying them I absolutely love them. There's no listening fatigue just listening enjoyment, much the same as the earbuds but better. ANC is not important to me but it seems to do a good job even with ANC switched off and just using the passive isolation of the pads. Overall I wouldn't change them for anything else, their musicality is superb.
I've ordered a pair, looking forward to listening to them. Main use for me would be listening to music or watching a movie when flying and having a much better audiophile experience and comfort over my AKG N20U in ear headphones which I have had for years now connected to a Fiio Btr3.
@@TotallydubbedHD Just listened to the headphones and I am thoroughly impressed. Very well balanced sound overall. The sound stage and stereo imaging is very impressive. The design is beautiful as well. I think I will be keeping these 👍
I preordered the melomania touch’s, the sound is very distinctive, soft rounded mellow and clean. Kinda British in nature actually,was great for music like the wallows or podcasts and indoor listening not lovely outdoor walks or runs tho. I sent them back and got a full refund because the connection problems were terrible, I would like to test these over ears before I purchase them as I like the look and price point, I’ve owned Sony and Bose and think they both have problems and cost too much
I very much wanted to order a pair, but the blocker for me was the lack of LDAC. With so few devices supporting aptx Lossless, a decent high end (albeit lossy) fall back codec was vital. I would've listened to them wired where possible, but always good to have decent BT.
There may seem to be a difference on paper between Aptx hd and LDAC but in practice there really isn't. I've been using LDAC for several years and only recently decided to try some Aptx earphones, I bought the Melomania m100 and use Aptx hd, they sounds really great. I don't expect a big difference in sound quality by using Aptx lossless, lossless or hi-res does not mean great sound, its just a technical fact. I'm in no hurry to get a phone with Aptx lossless, the transducers in the earphones make by far the biggest difference.

The reason you didn't have latency issues with RUclips videos is because the latency between your headphones and the video gets calculated, and then automatically synced via the offset; it doesn't matter how large the latency might be because of this, so you can focus entirely on quality. This works with videos because they're pre-recorded, but you obviously can't do this with real-time games, hence the need for lower latency at the cost of a tiny bit of quality (likely a slightly lower bit rate).
@@dnbqup well this is interesting, thanks for sharing! However, back in the days, there were plenty of issues with RUclips (or other videos) with Android phones using the AAC codec - that shouldn't have happened given what you said, but it did and was well documented. So, how comes it happened in the past with certain Bluetooth devices and phones?
I got them a couple of days ago. After doing some EQing (upward slope towards the treble) they sound pretty damn good to me. Sounds nice and detailed, with an incredibly powerful and controlled bass. Some downsides I found are: -Huge difference in bass volume AND quality between noise cancelling off and on (way better when off, which is my preferred setting for quiet environments like at home). -Increasing the bass in the EQ (made a profile to mitigate the loss of bass with NC), will cause HEAVY clipping/distortion on bass heavy songs, no matter the volume (it becomes baked into the signal), so that entire feature is entirely useless. -When NC is on, low volumes will cause audible artifacts/noise around dialog (and probably other things?). When watching videos of people speaking on below 20% volume, the voice gets a sort of harsh static enveloping every word. Very weird and distracting. NC off doesn't have this. -Stupid design choice for skipping tracks. It's done by double pressing the volume up or down buttons, so when you try to adjust volume a LITTLE too quickly, it will reset or skip your song, just when you might be trying to quickly increase volume for a good part of a song for example. This should IMO have been a long press action, as the long press is actually used on other buttons as well. You really have to be very slow with clicking the volume buttons. (Just found out long pressing will keep changing volume, but slowly, and doesn't feel as good as clicking at your own pace IMO) -A little tight on the head, though not a very big deal. -Black matte color gets greasy stains easily, and can only be really wiped off with a cloth. -Noise cancelling button is placed where I logically grab them to put them on or off, so accidental presses occur often when starting a session or a taking a short break, after which you need to slowly cycle through the 3 modes back to where you wanted it to be. -Some issues with windows bluetooth. Connects fine but with a weird name (Bluetooth LE device xxxxxxxxxx
@@TotallydubbedHD No problem dude. My opinion has changed somewhat on some of those points though, mainly the little annoyances in general use and concerns about the headband have lessened a bit after a while. They're still problems but you learn to keep them in mind and use it in a way so they're less likely to interfere. The main problems I have now are -The bass getting messed up when using noise cancelling. -The bass EQ causing distortion (Doesn't happen with USB connection, and somehow doesn't happen on my old Galaxy S8 with BT, but does happen on my S24 Ultra and my PC. Thought it might be te BT codec but I tried every codec on my S24 Ultra and all of them have the distortion). Another thing I noticed is that the specs say the ANC has wind noise reduction, but when using them on my bike the noise is very present. My old 2017 Sony completely eliminated that. But I don't use ANC anyways, cause of the bass issue, and ANC off is more than enough for outside use honestly (I'm not in a big city though). The following comments are a conversation I had with people on another video, in case you're interested in more details: *@kamil950 said:* "Do you have a comparison with some other ANC headphones for example in terms of ANC artifacts, comfort, headband etc.?" *I replied to @kamil950:* "Hey, sorry for the late reply. I did in fact order a Bose QuietComfort Ultra to compare against, and sound wise and ease of use wise (general operation like turning it on and pairing etc) the P100's were superior. The bose felt a little better comfort wise during longer sessions (after 1-2 hours). The P100's can unfortunately give me a bit of a headache from the pressure around the ears after a while, but that could be a subjective thing. I have not had much experience using the ANC with the P100's as I never turn it on due to the detrimental effects it has on audio (and haven't really used them in environments where it's needed yet), namely the noise artifacs it created around voices (at least when only a voice is playing like YT videos or podcasts), but mostly how on the current software version it messes with the bass. It reduces the volume of bass but also completely changes the texture of it. When playing a clean sine wave of bass, using a frequency generator, it goes from a smooth and full sounding bass to a wierdly textured and thin sound, so the ANC Off version of the bass is what it should sound like. I really hope this will get fixed along the way. If they do I will probably enable ANC by default cause as far as I've tested it is otherwise pretty good.

@@TotallydubbedHD Ah, yes, I've missed that. Seems like ANC is weaker than in Momentum 4, so I don't know if that's what I want, but I might give them a try anyway. As for passive isolation, in Momentum 4 it's impossible to turn off ANC, so it's hard to tell.

Cześć. Co sądzicie o tanim smartfonie xiaomi redmi note 13 pro 5 g jako źródło dźwięku do tych słuchawek. Posiada on wszystkie kodeki audio w tym aptx losless.
Should be fine.
You have never seen USB C to 3.5mm? You never had any current B&W headphones to test? Not one pair?
@@PeterbFree I have in the past, can't recall seeing that. Chill out!
