No, beats should be the last brand you consider...

For a demo set, make sure that nothing sounds off or weird (frequency range). If it sounds weird, don't buy, probably the driver has been blasted at high volumes.

Do you know where can we buy a MA750 without the damned mike?
teroo and stereo both only sells the MA750i version
Have you tried them? They're pretty bright and sibilant. Better try before you buy. I'm not too sure if popular has the non mic version. Popular sells the MA750 as well, they even have testers. Please bring your own alcohol swabs along. Take note that bright sounding = more fatigue.

Hi all, I am considering between the Sennheiser Momentum In Ear Wireless and the Sennheiser Momentum Free. My understanding is that the biggest difference is the battery life. Anyone tried both before and can tell me how different is the sound of these 2?

Also are there any other Bluetooth wireless headset that you guys would recommend?

Most important factor is sound follow by battery life.

They are both similar in sound, it's just different design. The In-Ear wireless sits around the neck comfortably, and you can wear the entire day. The Free version might slip off the neck if you are not mindful, especially when the in-line controls are bulky and weighty.

Using the new Skullcandy crusher 360. Best basshead headphones in my opinion. Has hard sub bass thumping and yet the mids and highs are good too. After hearing this headphones, the Sony xb950bt sounds as though it doesn't have bass. The bass can be adjusted to your intensity level and it's a big upgrade from the first version crusher wireless.

The build quality is also made of metal and have soft memory foam cushions compared to the plasticky build of the first version.

Go check out YouTube reviews. All those who review it are blown away~
