bjc Donating Members 2,812 Member For: 20y 7m 14d Gender: Male Location: Townsville Posted 30/10/21 04:35 AM Share Posted 30/10/21 04:35 AM bought some head phones to replace the old and decrepit Koss BT540i that I posted here in 2015 ->https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/81090-cool-stuff-you-just-bought/?do=findComment&comment=1572808 They arrived on Monday from the US (not actually a bad delay considering the *gestures broadly* situation). Monoprice BT600 ANC. They are excellent quality and have a great set of features for their price. Having used them for an entire work-week, they're absolutely a huge step up in quality compared to the old ones in all respects (except the touch controls are a bit finicky compared to buttons, but oh well). These are my first noise-cancelling headphones and you could say I'm impressed but that'd be a huge understatement. They go really loud, have a "harman" curved audio tuning for all it's connection types which I have tuned out with a known frequency response re-jig via "wavelet" on Android and holy crap do they sound good now and most reviews only have the sound quality as a minor annoyance depending on preference. Let's hope it stays together better than the old koss which just kept falling apart and having to be re-glued over the months/years as the "build quality" feels pretty good, but it's plastic and as we know plastic doesn't last forever It seems like they've copied Sony's design all the way apart from the buttons being on opposite sides!I've got 2 sets of WH-1000XM3 and a pair of WH-1000XM4. Had to buy new earpads for the 3's after wearing them for easily 8hrs a day every day for 22 months (mostly tv streaming and music and pottering around the yard).I took a gamble and got "Wicked Cushions" brand earpads and $20 a set delivered free from Amazon (Vic - Nth Qld) in 2 days, I'm stoked with the quality as the originals were past being hammered even! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjc Donating Members 2,812 Member For: 20y 7m 14d Gender: Male Location: Townsville Posted 31/10/21 12:13 AM Share Posted 31/10/21 12:13 AM Try not to vomit with the old earpads everbody! The new black ones are virtually identical and super comfy (updated thicker 2021 model supposedly). I'll have to do some critical listening from a new set of headphones with oem pads (the wife uses them) and the aftermarket pads as there's no NC difference but I think the new ones hold less bass but that could just be psychoacoustic... Here's where I bought them from - https://www.amazon.com.au/stores/WC/page/93F65FD3-DA46-47EE-9EDE-221A94265245?ref_=ast_bln2x sets were 20% off at the time and free delivery with Prime. I do have discount vouchers with the new pads so I can take a pic of them if anyone needs a set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted the 86" one but the missus reckoned it was too big so I had to compromise. It's big enough, much bigger than our 50" it replaced, and loads stuff like Netflix quicker than the fetch box...by miles!
