  Dear John Darko, have you ever reviewed the Dali io12 ?<br><br>I really want your opinion on that headphone since 5909, Solitare T and Dali io 12 are the only three wireless headphones which is truly made to sound good rather than just using a DSP to control sound

  The HDB 630 sucks!!! I bought it and couldn’t return them, they sound boring, plain, low bass, and low volume, it doesn’t change with the eq, I wouldn’t recommend it to buy it

  The big question for the money is, can the owner replace the battery? I had to chuck a pair of b&amp;w px5 when the battery expired after 2 years. Factor that into the cost. Maybe they should come with a trashability index: pounds spent per hour of use.

  Thank you for this review! the elephant in the room is the real use-case for any of the two. Is the ANC good enough to use outside or at a flight? Because if not, then when can we hear this sound quality? At home with an ANC that blocks somewhat the A/C? We have our open-backs when at home. I found my self enjoying music more from my airpods pro 3, even riding a bike or during flights, as i could really hear details i would never hear with much better headphones i own, in the same environment... I have seen so many reviews, PX8 s3 ANC seems to has even worse mic and anc than the px7 s3....whats your take? thanks in advance

  Could you quote ease of battery replacement for these phones . I tried to replace the battery in my AKG s , didn’t work , the tiny socket to plug them in wouldn’t fit .

  I just went to B&amp;W with the intention (having been completely sold by various vids) on the px8, but i tried the px7 s2 and to me they were far superior!!! Like levels above. So much so I asked if I have the wrong ones on the stand, went round the mall snd back after trying different items and confirmed ps7 were far better. The px8s were metallic like, and felt lazy for want of better expressions. Couldn&apos;t beleive it really but there you go.

  I think that you hit the nail on the head regarding your comment regarding the lack of synergy between the 630 and AAC! &nbsp;That was my experience when I tried the 630.<br><br>Additionally, there are a lot of BT headphones that fly under the radar that offer better value (in my opinion) to the leading name brands if you put sonics above everything else. &nbsp;Among the brands I’ve tried, I’d take an AKG N9 Hybrid or a Final Audio UX5000 and never looked back!

  B&amp;W are rubbish, Momentum 4 are rubbish. HDB630 are the ONLY wireless that are a step in the right direction.
