Good video as always. Not tried the B&O earphones but probably worth noting they are approx £100 more expensive than the Apple ones. As the saying goes, you pays your money you take your choice.
I’ve own the EX BnO buds and have owned the earlier E8 also . AirPods are decent enough but they lack that touch of class BnO bring to the table . Sure the BnO build is in a different league, I’m not sure the difference in call quality as I do t use them for that . But my BnO buds sound on a different plain to my partners AirPods , bass is clearer much more defined , mids , highs clear as gin though not tinny an excellent soundstage too . What I’ve learned with all my Beolabs , Beosound and Beoplay gear since switching from traditional separate HIFI gear is BnO gear is highly tuned I use the EQ on their excellent app however don’t put too much treble on their signature sound it don’t need it . Many audiophile reviewers at least the ones who are balanced pardon pun ! Recognise that BnO has a very detailed yet warm sound it’s not a sound that’s tiring on your ear . BnO is a thoroughbred in AV Apple is so in tech . There lays the difference in these two products.
I note that you said you go for quality sound. Have you gone done the SACD, Pure Audio Bluray or high quality streaming route. Please let me know. Thanks
Yes and unfortunately after conducting online tests on my ears I can’t clearly differentiate between lossless and 300 bits sound. They seem very similar to me.
I’m fan of clarity and loudness sound, do you think this B&O sounds loud and clear? I have the airpods 2 gen and sound acceptable but I want to upgrade
There’s the new sport models now that I’m considering buying instead of apple’s. B&O is really top notch. Thanks for the video.
You are correct about adding foam
Great review! They are on sale now for 200USD

Unrelated to the video but is there a sound difference between the e8 design 3rd gen version and the EQ version of b&o?
Great video. What do you think of Harman Kardon and Bose? Best regards:)
Both are ok as long as they are specially designed for the car acoustics
I feel that the headphones are big, do they fit very small ears?
What do you think about the bowerswilkins pi7???
Too neutral for my taste in the way they sound.

Loud and clear! AirPods second generation are quite poor quality compared to the 3rd generation
Loudness compared to the AirPods Pro ?
Air-what? :)
