wait, you can vpn to China in Singapore? Wa, uncle crin please tech me how to vpn to China from Singapore leh, I try many solution liao, but none seem to work.
weird anecdote i got reminded of that nobody would care about. I once went out to try the newly released xm5 because i needed a noise cancelling headphone due to some circumstances. There are so many good reviews about it's "sound quality" everywhere online, but trying it for the first time it made me question my hearing ability because it sounded like it was underwater. Ended up getting the bose qc 700 instead.
This is so true tho. I have used my XM3 for about 4 years now, and yea it sounds shit out of the box. It sounds beautiful with parametric EQ on it tho IMO. I'm glad i use Android, so i can use a system wide DSP with parametric EQ. I would not have enjoyed these headphones otherwise.

Man, you’ve got a good sense of humour. Also I am excited to learn more about audio quality, something I wish I knew more about/actually had some knowledge about what is good and bad. Subbed!
This to me is a leftover relic from the 2020 covid pandemic where everyone was in the rush to make all these anti covid inventions. Funnily enough, i wouldn't surprise if they become one of your most popular headphones to try lol
Hey crin, regarding the IEM ranking, there are no indicator/filter for True Wireless Buds. Hope you add a filter or update the standalone TWS rank list.
filtering by wired/wireless does seem like a useful feature. Same with over-ear headphones. Currently having trouble picking some due to all the hype reviews or unqualified reviewers...
I had the chance to try the DZ for a few days and honestly I kinda liked it. Call quality was pretty good, ANC was good as was transparency, it was a little heavy compared to even the Airpods Max but it was still comfortable, and the sound quality was good. I tried the air filter in a few different locations and while it does seem a little gimmicky, I can also see the advantage in some cases, one case being cleaning my apartment where it did a really good job lessening any chemical smell. The only problem with these headphones is really just the price. If they were priced in the $450-$500 range like the Airpods Max or at the most (and that's pushing it) $550-$600 range like the M&D MW75 it would make way more sense but $1000 is just ridiculous
Actually Dyson has their "hand dryers" in the public toilets / department stores' toilet. That's the main presentation to the public, at least in the UK. They were also thinking of the "car market" and abandoned the idea few years ago.
If the filter is small enough to filter the substance the positive air pressure is actually the best way to keep stuff out. Unless the filter itself literally doesn’t work I fail to see how it’s “unsafe”
unsafe as in the consumer could falsely think that it is safe for use as a replacement for normal mask, but the dyson visor doesn't even cover your face properly like a mask would - so pollution and germs can still get in through the seems.
Crazy idea : made a new child company called Dyson Audio and then release the zone without the visor + air purifier for 1/4 of the price. Dyson, hire me fr fr 🙏🙏
I actually like how these headphones look besides the filter i like the colours and the shine of the metal though it looks like it would pick up a lot of finger prints
Love the review but most of all love the background track you use for your review vids. Congratulations by Primary(feat. DynamicDuo and Jay Park). Such a groovy and underrated album. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
You have a gate compressor on, it makes it hard to hear the noise of the fan since we only hear it when you speaks and goes away briefly after you speak
I'm wondering if there has been a update on the DSP as earlier reviews and measurements result in a much brighter signature, or maybe it's just HRTF differences, does anyone know about an update?
Honestly there still isnt a neutral harman bluetooth headphone, theres always harman bass boosted headphone Idk why nobody has made a neutral headphone bt headphone yet. Pretty surprising that Dyson has a neutral target
I’m nowhere close to an audiophile. The IEMs that made me smile last were my X20i. Now that they’ve been through wash cycle, they sound muddy. I want a new pair to make me happy while listening to music again. I don’t know why I’m watching you even tbh. I just love it that you play the nice asshole lol I’ll drop by soon.
Damn! Crin! Dyson really make a real headphone in resent day!😂 Dyson ontrac, Even the price exactly around $500! I guess you really give them confidence to do this.🤣
It's crazy you can buy 3 pairs of HD600s for the price of these, and still have money left over. It has to be because of the tiny economy of scale, I am confident they didn't make over 1,000 or maybe even 100 of these
I tried the Airpod Max's at the Apple store while picking up earbuds (not for me lol), they were priced at $550. I was expecting a Bose and Beats style presentation with heavy bass, sweet highs, mediocre mids, as that's what the market expects when they spend extra on headphones. I was surprised to hear NO bass, mediocre mids, and sweet highs. Huh? I then tried the Airpods 2nd gen my mom bought, and while their was no noise canceling or a volume knob, they sounded like... NO bass, mediocre mids, and sweet highs. Good for $129 but not for $550.
Nah, while you expect that for just sound... you forget that you aren't paying for just the sound. The ANC, the build quality, the chipset, the bluetooth, the ecosystem.... You are paying for a lot of things that are included with the headphones.. even if you yourself wouldn't use everything in the headphones... For wireless headphones, they would sound good for $350 or $400... and that's if they used plastic like the competition and didn't work with the ecosystem.... Problem with audiophiles and stuff is that they judge a product just based on audiophile perspectives....
I'm going to Singapore next month, does "The Hangout" cafe only for a limited time? Or will it be an establishment for quite some time until further notice?
Even before I clicked I knew that, either he was going to roast this until well done, or he'd actually be surprised by the quality. But yeah that price tag?! You can get the new Bose QuietComfort Ultra's at a fraction of the price.
Hey crin, I'm getting a mild muddy feeling from the new studio location in terms of your mic quality, I don't know if this is just me going bananas but I'd just like you to know
I bought a pair of these and they sound better than the AirPods Max and have a longer battery life as they have two batteries in the headband - left and right. All headphones should include dual batteries - not one but other brands keep putting them in the ear cups instead of the headband which also helps with balancing / weigh distribution. I paid AU$799 (black friday special) and plastic headphones no matter the price are not longer acceptable - all metal or nothing.

How and why
Cuz probabky the founder use it and he doesnt want to lose to apple.
