    How do they compare with the Bose QC ?

    • follow on 28/03/2018 - 17:25

      They're primarily about NC and this is primarily about SQ, according to gadgeguy

      • samelight on 28/03/2018 - 17:36

        what is SQ?

          @Jackson: The SQ is QG compared to the QC but obviously lacks the NC.

    • scrimshaw on 28/03/2018 - 17:27

      These aren't noise cancelling, don't have Google Assistant feature. But it does have a 24 hr battery life. More focused on audio quality.

          You are right. I used it for 4 hours and press and hold one side of the ear touch panel invoked Siri for me. Works well.

          @goraygo:

          This took me way to long to figure out, but you’re supposed to tap the centre twice quickly to activate Siri/google assistant, the holding doesn’t help ;)

        • goraygo on 05/04/2018 - 07:22

      I have QC35 as well as this.

      QC35 has better bass than the Yamaha.

      However, I can hear a lot more details from my usual playlist compared to QC35.

      So it depends, if you love music with lots of details and not big bassy can, then you will be happy. But if you are heavy bassy person who prefer to have bigger bass and lose some details of the music, then go with Bose QC35.

      • love2buy on 28/03/2018 - 19:27

          Haha. Haven’t had the need to call anyone yet. Don’t expect it to be great. Bose QC35 isn’t great either.

        • goraygo on 28/03/2018 - 19:34

          @love2buy: read my post 2 below. :)

      • hero1211 on 28/03/2018 - 19:30

        How comfy is it compared with QC35?

        • goraygo on 28/03/2018 - 19:31
          +3

          QC35 is a lot more more comfy for a guy with glasses.

          If I take my glasses off, it’s not a big difference but Bose still slightly more comfy.

          I think it’s the angle of the band that muck around with my glasses frame and I have a thick-ish frame.

    Hi res audio for 150. Worth the gamble.

    • goraygo on 28/03/2018 - 19:13
      +1

      Depends what you want to hear as music is subjective to each individual.

      I found it to be ok bass but not great.

      However, playing my usual playlist let me hear details I have never heard from my QC35.

      So if you are not bass heavy person, this headphone rocks.

      • MissKitty on 28/03/2018 - 19:56
        +1

        QC35's in general just don't have very good sound quality, certainly for the price. I have them for the noise cancelling and comfort, like most. Be curious how good these are as I'm looking for another set of closed cans. Big question, this or the Beyerdynamic dt 770? Hmmm.

      • fredblogs on 28/03/2018 - 21:06
        +1

        Speaking of bass, try https://open.spotify.com/album/0CQLuftct8Ujw7uLogVdNq at around 7:08. I find the QC35s distort bass when on bluetooth when played loud. How about you?

          Will try and get back to you later. Wifey not happy I am on the headphone all night already.

          +2

          Ok. Tried on both QC35 and this one, Yamaha is a lot better in sound quality and not muffed like Bose. I can also still hear the details around the bass.

    If my Yamaha hph-mt220's are anything to go off (not saying they are, but they make me trust Yamaha), these should be pretty good & I might buy a pair. I've been looking for some decent wireless headphones that aren't too expensive.

    • Manh on 28/03/2018 - 22:33

      I'm still using the MT220 (the highs are clear and it's like it has built in sub-woofers when watching the Star Wars ep7 trailer). Last year I bought and tried the updated model HPH-MT8 and was disappointed that it sounded muffled compared directly to the MT220 so I gave the MT8 to my dad.

      But at this discounted price, I'd like to take a gamble on this W300 and hope it's better than the MT8 but alas I just missed out on this deal :(

      • Benno123 on 28/03/2018 - 22:45

        Ah, that's a shame about the MT8's, never got to try them. Don't worry, I missed out too! Thought I'd have more time to think about it. Oh well.

          Yes, it appears to support both wired and wireless so your answer is misleading.

        • Jackson on 29/03/2018 - 09:21

          To be honest, I found his response quite funny. The product title says bluetooth (which should obviously mean wireless).

          Besides, if you had clicked on the link in the time you took to post your question here, you'd have seen that it supports wired listening as well. It would have been a different story if the information was too hard to find, but it clearly isn't the case here.

    • goraygo on 28/03/2018 - 19:14

        Thanks for clarifying this. I want to use them in flight and wanted to confirm if they work with cable too.

        • fredblogs on 29/03/2018 - 10:30

          You really should get noise cancelling headphones instead if using in flight.

        • goraygo on 29/03/2018 - 13:30

          you might break your ear drum on a flight without noise cancellation headphone and just use normal because you will ended up cracking up the volume to drown out the airplane noise.

          QC35 is good for plane.

    Does Yamaha have something like a no question asked return policy like Bose or Apple? I would like to try these but get find any mention of return policy on their site.

    • Jackson on 29/03/2018 - 19:40

      Battery is about the same, 24hrs compares to 25 hours
      Frequency range 20 Hz – 40 kHz yamaha, 18-22000 Sennheiser (20Hz to 20kHz average for normal human hearing)
      price $150 on yamaha vs. $190 on HD4.40
      Warranty - 1 year warranty on yamaha, 2 year on sennheiser (international)
      Both foldable design - Yamaha will fold flat, Sennheiser fold in
      Controls - Yamaha has touch pad controls, Sennheiser has buttons under ear cup

      Keep what you have or buy these, doesn't seem to be a huge difference.

  • BloodyRoses on 28/03/2018 - 20:22
    +9

    Thanks OP! These are absolutely fabulous, my dad's had a pair of these for the past month and I can now tell him i got the same thing for $100 + shipping less! Idk about audiophiles but the sound quality of these is beyond my own audio technica m50x's as well as my dad's previous pair the bose noise cancelling ones that are very popular.

    In terms of comments of comfort that people have made above i would like to say that it is heavier than the bose ones, by alot but the fact that its 24hrs battery and a properly bigger over ear headphone that's probably about right.

    The sound quality is just fabulous, if you want hard rock or that deep base tone then maybe these aren't for you exactly. It's alot more balanced and i listen mainly to orchestral pieces and i find that the lost lighter tones that you lose in earpieces of lower quality you find in these and more. Beautifully balanced mid range drivers but they can be base strong if you just adjust via software however i'd leave it in the hands of a yamaha employee to set defaults lol, i really don't think i can do better at all.

    $250 + shipping was a competitive price, $150? Come on, if these don't blow you right out of the water for that price then stick to the regular $20 a pop earphones instead.

    Needless to say i'm a fan of these ^^ go team yamaha!
