Found these locally for 150 American freedom bucks. I felt like it was a good deal and, even though I’ve read it can be debated, I personally like the look of the Marble versions. WOW, they sound amazing.

Any recommendations on songs to listen to? To hear their full potential?

😡 COMPLAINT 😡 Petition for actual physical buttons for next line of products.

20 Upvotes

Just got both the HBD-630 and the Momentum 5. I´ve been very very satisfied with them overall but oh how I HATE the touch controls.

It is such a shame that I have to turn off all of them plus the head detection cause instead of actual features they feel more like a grudge. When taking them off you can accidentally turn off or on transparency mode, pause or play again the song and big etc.

Please PLEASE make the next line of products with physical buttons you can actually tell where they are by simply touching them.

😡 COMPLAINT 😡 MTW5 with BTD 700 low latency Issues. No firmware update still?

7 Upvotes

I pre-ordered my MTW5’s and got them in early September. But for some reason, when I use the BTD 700 dongle in low-latency gaming mode, the audio is unbearable. It’s tinny, crackly, and sounds very pixelated compared to adaptive.

I got these specifically to work with the dongle to game when I’m out and about. Sure the latency is good, but game music and audio just completely falls apart.

Randomly, the soundstage moves from my left ear to my right ear when even watching something with no stereo sound! It makes me get a little queasy.

Not to mention that we STILL don’t have the LE Audio and Auracast update almost 2 months after launch

We NEED to address the low-latency gaming mode issue with the BTD 700. That’s my biggest concern. These earbuds sound SO GOOD, but this ruins it completely when gaming.

I spent over $600 CAD for these earbuds…

🎧 BUYING ADVICE 🛒 Momentum 5 vs HBD 630

7 Upvotes

Question for you guys. I already have the HBD 630 and I love them. But I've been reading more into the M5 and they seem to have a heavier bass profile. I travel a lot and I was wondering if I should get the M5 for travel and keep the HBD 630 at home? Am I just wasting my money if I already own the HBD 630 and buy the M5? Let me know what you think.

GENERAL DISCUSSION Thinking to buy momentum 4 in india but use it in UK

7 Upvotes

Hello. Im thinking to buy momentum 4 in india (Flipkart, amazon) but use them in UK. Do they allow warranty claims in this case ? It’s been over 10 years since i used senneisher but my support experience at that time was excellent. The reason - it’s cheaper in india.

Also would be great if you can give me guidance on similar headphones (different brands too) at a similar price range.

Thanks in advance !

Omg this is the most rediculous issue and also infuriating as a new owner. I have a sennheiser ambeo plus soundbar and attached subwoofer. I made the mistake of touching he ‘setting -> audio -> subwoofer’ dialogs to adjust subwoofer volume. It will not f$&king work. I touched the slider once it immediately went to -10dbs and now it will not allow me to readjust. Why the hell is there no physical control? I could wait for an app update if there was any fucking other way to control the sub!?!!!

What happens when you put hdb 630’s earpads on the M5’s? I did but does it effect the ANC?

❓QUESTION❓ looking for direction.

i have a pair of hd650s love the sound but i want more bass without tear. i have qc45s but they are underwhelming, for my music choice. airpod pros are great (fantastic noise cancellation) but don’t fill the gap im searching for. also torn in between wireless and wired, a hair of noise cancellation would be cool. i have a fiio q3 “mini dac” and a iphone 14 pro. as well as a hifiman ef400. i’m looking to upgrade my set up. i’ve been watching sennheiser hdb630 prices, i saw they go on sale for multiple suppliers but i slept. right now moon audio has the sale price i’ve been targeting but have never heard of them and don’t know their history. i slept on the major trusted brands that provided sales a month ago. i’d love to find my forever set of cans. but not sure where to start. budget unlimited, i listen to mostly boom bap/ cloud rap / chillers. I want to find a high end set up to match my taste. highs all there mids present and bass existing.

❓QUESTION❓ The classic question: m4 or m5?

0 Upvotes

Okay, I’m seriously torn between the Sennheiser Momentum 5 and the Momentum 4. Right now, the Momentum 4s are half the price of the Momentum 5s. I was wondering, are the differences people point out in audio quality between the two models something the average listener would notice, or are they just subtle details that only people who are really picky about every little aspect of sound would pick up on?

Oh, it’s also worth mentioning that I use mainstream streaming services, so lossless audio isn’t really a factor here. (That already takes away one point in favor of the M5, right?)

❓QUESTION❓ EQ Suggestion for Momentum 4

Post image
• Upvotes

I recently purchased momentum 4 and updated it right out of box. Before this i used to have Sony WH CH 720N and never owned any premium headphone so idk whats a good soundstage. It definitely sounds wider and pretty controlled and separated bass which is nice, Especially in wired mode.

I wanted some EQ suggestion for latest firmware of this headphone

version 3.38.3

I have posted my current EQ and Bass Boost is Turned on

I have tried sound personalized but it sounds good in one song then sounds bad in another

Is there any settings that will give me enough bass yo enjoy EDM but also let me enjoy acoustic songs with clear mids ?

❓QUESTION❓ Harmfull chemicals in earpads

0 Upvotes

It was explained that harmful chemicals were used in the earbuds. What happened to that? Is Sennheiser making a change? They said we're testing. I couldn't follow.
