Ah Yeap, you don't like bass that much 😂

Yes the eq on the headphones requires setting to the lower tier codec, but your source should have an eq ?

I'm not going to use the eq on my source because I use another headphone and studio monitors with them.

u can get the xm3 they are more breathable and lighter

I returned the xm3 because the earpads aren't breathable and you are asking me to get the xm3?

Really wanted to get this until I found out abou the mic issue. Call quality is really important to me as I am always on conf calls for work. Anyone can comment if the call quality of really that bad? Will the Bose QC 35 be any better?

If you want good call quality, should get sennheiser pxc550

i just want to say holy **** did the are the dekoni pads comfortable

those of you complaining that the dekoni pads reducing the ANC

take the pads out, and before you put it back on, tuck the lower end of the sponge into the space. cuz i did that for my right but not left, and the left side was really lacking in the anc department.

Should be direct Sony SG warranty.

Qoo10 I think only Stereo and ConnectIT are authorised reseller.

Rest is shop ownself warranty ownself or need to send back overseas.

I waited a while for Stereo to give 10% shop coupon. Today they did.

But changed the 1000XM3 to daily deal so you cannot use cart coupon.

ConnectIT, same 499 - 5%. But can use my $50 cart coupon.

Make sure to tuck the inner sponge pad properly under the earpad else will have sound leak issue

Now really feels more comfortable

Once its more comfortable. All the sound, base, treble whatever will naturally sound better. Haha.

Re

Bought it just now from Stereo@Plaza Singapura

Connected to my HW Mate 20x using LDAC which I couldn't do it the last time. Not sure whether it's due to my hp's firmware updates or due to firmware update on the SONY 1000XM3

ANC is great especially in Plaza Singapura, MRT and outdoor although not 100% perfect and with those touch controls I just love it. 30 hrs battery hours definitely no comment.....just superb.

Anyway listening to music for a few hours now and is very pleased with it although its treble is not high enough

Haven't try the app yet. I heard it has a EQ for better treble adjustment
