For music/casual use
Sony WH-1000XM5
or
Sennhaiser Momentum 4
In every single comparison video I've watched they all said XM5 clears on ANC and Momentum 4 clears on sound quality. I lowkey don't really care about having strong ANC and prioritize sound quality so I'm leaning towards Momentum 4 but I'm still indecisive though which one should i get?
this actually made me laugh, first time any of ur posts made that happen dsby, good job 😽
You won’t be able to tell a difference in sound quality id recommend you go with the xm5s
I have been using the XM5 for more than a year now. No complaints. Just great for music, especially if you travel a lot. Don't know about the Momentum 4.
Also, you may get a great deal now due the launch of XM6 and holidays.
"-phile" as a suffix means "likes something." In the case of audiophile, it just means they like things relating to audio
You're probably thinking of the word "pedophile." "Pedo" originates from the Greek word for child, when you add "phile" to the end of it it literally means "child lover"
I’m well aware, you don’t need to mansplain english to me lol. The -phile suffix can often also mean being sexually attracted to something
For example zoophile does NOT mean animal lover, it means someone who is sexually attracted to animals
A term like “audiohead” would remove any negative connotations and association with pedophilia/necrophelia/zoophelia
I have the momentum 4! I really like it, I’m not an actual audiophile but I care about sound quality. You can create your own “profile” in the sennheiser app, which lets you customize your sound and you can really tell the difference.
I don’t have a very large head but the headphones clamp onto my head a little hard, but the same happened with the XM5 in the store (if you can try them, I’d recommend it). That’s my only negative point, the build and sound quality are great, ANC is good enough for how I use it (studying and flushing the toilet lolll)
I have the Xm5s and Im very happy with their noise cancelling and sound quality. They could maybe be a bit more sturdy but apart from that they have been great.
srs answer
momentum is better + cheaper (atleast in saudi)
xm5s are only better in anc
so id say momentum 4s clear
I have the XM4s honestly those are some of the best overall headphones I have had for years. The XM5 and the Momentum 4s are just ever so slghtly better than the XM4s
I have the momentum 3 i bought long time back. Out of the box it was absolutely digshit just sounded like a ultra bass machine but then i tweaked a lot settings and finally got the perfect sound for me and its amazing. I heard the 4's also are super bassy. If you like bass then its fine otherwise u have to work a lot to tune them
