    A year ago, I reviewed the Momentum 4. Now, a year later, Sennheiser has fixed everything I complained about in this review, and not much to my surprise, the momentum 4 are now in my top 3 headphones. And since they released a new pair of their more budget friendly Headphones the Accentum PLUS, which even though its their budget line, now only costs 40 Euros less than their top of the line Headphones. So, a comparison in my opinion is necessary, to see if 40 Euros more give you the much better Headphones. And for comparisons sake, and because a viewer asked me, im also going to throw the Sony xm5s into the mix as well.

    This is not even close. I went to Best Buy and tried them all myself. I'm not an audiophile but the Sennheiser M4 is FAR better than the Sony MX5 or the Beats. Sony and Beats are muddy. The Sennheisers are clear and you can hear all the instruments. Bass is plenty good and thumps right out of the box. I bought the Sennheisers without regret. Best headphones I've ever had.

    I've found only one major solution to improving the XM5's sound quality. I installed the Wavelet app and loaded in the professionally tuned Harman-EQ (true neutrality) specifically made for the XM5. It made a huge improvement in clarity and soundstage balance, my only recommendation. Default everything else in Sonys headphone-app and use wavelet for EQ, it's more advanced.
    Wavelet has Harman-profiles for hundreds of different headphone-models also.

    Hello, may I ask? I would like to buy a top model of wireless headphones mainly for listening to music but also for casual use (UA-cam, netflix, etc.) at home for PC and mobile, so ANC is probably not a priority. I was considering the WH1000 XM5 (or waiting for the new xm6 model) but what I found out from various videos, from the sound side, they are not nearly as good and there are better variants such as the Px7 S2e (Px8 are already expensive for me). I just don't understand that they don't have spatial audio. It's important because I'm currently using airpods for 2022 for music and the difference is quite noticeable there (both for music and movies). So is it an important factor or not? I don't know much about it.

    • @LeechTM
      @LeechTM  6 місяців тому +2

      Hey, thanks for the question. This is only my opinion, but i think spatial audio is just a tacked on gimmick. If its sound Quality your looking for, either go for the Px7 or the Momentum 4.

    • @Vojin12
      @Vojin12 6 місяців тому +1

      @@LeechTM Thank you for your reply I really appreciate it. Can I have one more question? Is it possible to somehow replace the ear pads on the Px7 headphones? Because I wear glasses, the leather always cracked very quickly on my headphones. They probably won't put pressure on the head, but the leatherette is quite a problem because I had beats and they were completely fine, and within half a year after I started wearing glasses, the leatherette was completely destroyed. I wanted to buy headphones with ear cups without leatherette, but almost none are produced. Thanks a lot. 🙏

    What a great review! And the cinematography is impeccable. An eye-candy.
    Right now in Poland, you can get Accentum Plus for 140€, while for Momentum you have to shell out 100€ extra. In that case, Accentum Plus gets significant leverage over the "bigger" brother, especially for people who want a good sound quality for the money.
    I'd love to see your take on some budget options from top brands, like Sony WH-CH720N (which seems interesting to me but I cannot find any coherent review).

    I used xm5 for over a year and they broke one day. then bought momentum 4. xm5 were better overall specially in ANC and comfort department. I could wear xm5 for unlimited time but M4 although having soft cushions, starts hurting ears in an hour as they have more clamping force and earpads has more contact area with ears. M4 are may look big but they are a bit of on the ear instead of over the ear. Wind reduction mode in M4 is buggy. when turned on it kinda behaves like anc turned off. I hear every noise except fan wind noise. when wind reduction is off, ANC effecting but lets fan wind effect on ear cups feel indirectly.

    Mids are definitely screaming much louder on the accentums. No doubt the M4’s sound awesome but the volume is quite low on my unit.
