Yup, not to be confused with the Sony Bravia 8 II, which is a more competitive QD-OLED offering.

Just stick with the Momentum 4 for a few years, then you can shuffle over to the next-generation of stuff. The N9 reflects one of the first…

All good, you got a great deal (of which the $25 off was exclusive to), and you probably got better vocal timbre as that is definitely…

Given how much these overclock at reference power limits, the first point is hardly a concern. Just seems like the fan curve sucks and it…

Just had a test and I'm not hearing any clear distortion when comparing to 990 kbit LDAC reasonably volume matched with the EQ I've posted.…

Correct!

Probably starts to get loud at peak, and it's probably too loud when the fans are engaged initially (min fan RPM is 1500, but would happen…

I don't believe so, no. I think there's been a firmware update since that early review out of Korea, but I'm still listening for it myself.…

Maybe go back and read my initial sentence properly first. It only serves to confuse people who are likely to be looking for an easy…

It's really not that pedantic, just state that they work reasonably out of a basic sound card or dongle. Let's not take basic…

None of those measurements involve distortion, which after elevating the bass 5.5 dB, would audible at 80-85 dB, so if your chain has any…

> I love the fact these can be used without an amp I do not love that you think this is an accurate statement, or at least that you want to…

All I can say there is that you're in the minority, and you're also pushing through a fair bit of bass distortion to make that happen,…

Very good price for the Accentum Plus if you can't reach up to that $250 bracket for the well-priced portion of high-end ANC.

Fair enough! [Here's a good EQ for when you get it.](https://youtu.be/VvIqrjuBXmA?t=12m10s)

M4 touch controls are good quality, just a different option... would be good for flipping tracks so long as you don't wind up rapping on…

Oh the QuietComfort Wireless? Still miles behind these two, which aside from some aspects of noise cancelling, stand up with the top of the…

Oh, if [you scroll back a little, you'll see I'm familiar with the…

Momentum are good, N9 can be a little more picky with headband positioning due to them having aluminium construction in the mix, but…

QC Ultra if you desperately need more ANC, Momentum 4 for everything else. AKG N9 sits above the Momentum 4 for everything bar tonal…

It really comes down to what you're looking for. The HD6XX/650 have fantastic vocal and piano timbre while being relaxed in the treble and…

These are bluetooth closed-back ANC headphones that at best get latency down to 70 ms, but they are able to be used wired via 3.5mm jack…

At $250 with Prime? No, no it is not. I'd be surprised if you've even demo'd it.

Offer & price is also on the white model, [but don't forget the AKG N9 Hybrid as well...](https://amzn.asia/d/69yGkk1)

As you've more or less noted, the biggest issue in this case would be the latency of the implementation, but it can also apply in terms of…

Sometimes it's a cheap panel, sometimes it's no effort in the implementation, or intentionally not driving the panel to the necessary…

Feel free to show a reasonable image comparison that clearly demonstrates the image quality loss for what would be a bare minimum usage of…

Both are important. LCD is held back by its own responsiveness, OLED is held back by energy usage and thermals at higher refresh rates. The…

Standard sale price. Wasn't worth mentioning when the HD650 was up for $330 on Amazon.

In the ether, or perhaps in my comments on similar deals on this website.
