I have the H7. Quite decent. Vocal and separation. But no keep case to go with it. Sensor volume knob takes some time to learn to control but once you get the hang of it its fine. Got mine at Decibels, great boss to chat with. I learn abit from talking to him

Where is Decibels?

I tried the Onkyo W800BT at ISSE yesterday, won my "most impressive gear" aware.

The bass is amazing and just right, the present is there but not overpowering. For a true wireless earphones, it's the first one that I tried that can play for extended period without losing connection between the left and right sides. Granted that this is played in a room with 10+ bluetooth connections in the air, that's fantastic to me.

Right earpiece can be used as a bluetooth earpiece, that's a bonus to me.

Only complaints that I have (and they are minor nitpicking complaints) are that the mids and highs are VERY SLIGHTLY recessed.

But given that these are true wireless IEMs that are source independent, this is a MUST-BUY for me.

Luckily my colleague is in Japan this week, so I quickly ask her to hoot one for me if she saw it there.

Where did you audition the W800BT?

Ah a quick question... why is this headphone (from Qoo10) too cheap...

Marshall Major II Wireless S$66.80

Is it possible it is not authentic?

those planning to get mdr1000x overseas can consider getting it from lazada malaysia. The best deal that I got 2 weeks ago was rm1.4k after discount.

Nope. It was USD199.99. I know because I bought the viridian blue one.

Well actually it is USD194.99 for me because I use the gift card voucher.

Went to ConnectIT to test out the headphones. The auntie so nice. Introduced me the 100abn, I feel its already very good for me. Not too much of noise cancelling as you still can hear some voices but background noises are cancelled out. Also tested the 1000x and bose 35. Nice to have but I feel don't have the need as to me its not too much of difference in sound, comfortability yes its much better than 100abn. Anyway, going to purchase the 100abn. Thanks guys for the suggestions :)

Tried both headphones and choose the Sony as the sound quality is better. Sony loses out to Bose in terms of simultaneous connection to 2 Bluetooth devices.

I am a Newbie to headphone. Comparing Bose QC35 vs Song MX1000. Have being reading reviews on the internet and mostly are saying Sony is better?

I use it for general music and watching movies, any Seniors can advice which one to choose better the 2?

At least Sony 1000x can still use when the battery goes out. I think QC35 no batt = no music.
