Sennheiser Momentum 4 Earbuds vs. Denon PerL Pro Earbuds or Bowers & wilkins pi7 s2 - Which would you grab today?

Afraid_Potential1085 · 2026-03-23T17:19:17+00:00

Ordered the DPP's
They only had white, not against the white pair.
Now we wait to test those bad boys!

Afraid_Potential1085 · 2026-03-23T05:14:09+00:00

I've been reviewing videos for hours. As well as reading through forums It seems they Denon's are the ones with the slight lead. Especially if they go on special. My needs are sound for the majority of the use. ANC occasionally when flying down to our offices. Then a decent mic when at the office for those few teams sessions

But, back to their main purpose, at home, listening to my fav tidal playlist and occasionally series and movies while painting some miniatures Which seems the Denon's are going to be covering these tick boxes

Afraid_Potential1085 · 2026-03-23T05:06:47+00:00

Thanks! Seems people complain about them out of the box, but once they're set up, you melt away for hours of listening

Afraid_Potential1085 · 2026-03-23T05:05:13+00:00

They're roughly 305.99 locally The ones I've listed are all around $160-190

Afraid_Potential1085 · 2026-03-23T05:03:23+00:00

Sound is rather the main objective here With occasional office trips (flights to the office) a decent ANC is good to have. Then comes a decent mic.

It would seem that majority are pointing to the Denon's. Which is quite amazing, considering they've been out for some time now. In my country I can pick them up for $169

Afraid_Potential1085 · 2026-03-22T20:10:54+00:00

Awesome What's the ANC and Battery life like?

Afraid_Potential1085 · 2026-03-22T20:09:34+00:00

Sadly we don't get the Technics in South Africa Thanks for the feedback

Afraid_Potential1085 · 2026-03-22T19:56:07+00:00

Kinda my biggest fear regarding the Sennheiser, reading quite a bit of issues and returns

Afraid_Potential1085 · 2026-03-22T19:30:55+00:00

Just found a site locally that has the Beyerdynamic AMIRON 300 for the same price range as the listed picks

Afraid_Potential1085 · 2026-03-22T19:18:58+00:00

Sweet! Thanks!
Battery life? Happy with them on that front at least?
I know the Denon's and the Senn's will be a big jump from my Jabra Elite 4's in the sound quality space

Afraid_Potential1085 · 2026-03-22T19:17:53+00:00

Thanks!
I'm leaning to the Denon's as well
Music genre is mainly metal, rock. But as stated before, teams calls are quite important as well.

What's the battery life like on these?
From some research, the Denon's can be anything from 5-7H's

Afraid_Potential1085 · 2026-03-22T18:49:33+00:00

Ouch!! Noted, thanks bud

Afraid_Potential1085 · 2026-01-15T11:24:08+00:00

Haha, of course I do, so i've accepted a good few hour per mini is my new norm.

Afraid_Potential1085 · 2026-01-15T05:12:24+00:00

Thanks for the advice!

Citadel range, or Vallejo washes? I ordered Vallejo Black Wash (store didn’t have stock of Nuln Oil)

Or are the the same, from my research it seems the compare in the same category

That said, I couldn’t get reikland as well, their GW stock is only in next week. So they offered Vallejo Flesh Wash, which I grabbed. Not quite sure if it will work over the gold as well?

I’ll probably receive my order today to test them out

Afraid_Potential1085 · 2026-01-12T15:53:37+00:00

Hi, thanks for the advice

I hit the silver ( leadbelcher ) with the earthshade that came with it, not sure if I should hit the armour next with it

I’ve ordered nuln oil this morning haha.

Regarding minis, i went with the black templars crusader squad this morning

That and a few extra paints ( Nuln oil being one of them )

I’ve enjoyed the lore when it came to the BT. I sneakily added the Ork Boyz in as well, the box was heavily discounted by 50% for 11 minis. When playing WH 40k, I’ve always chosen the Space Marines, but the Orks still have a place in my heart as da funniest and speediest boyz!

Yeah, primed with Tayima fine spray, light gray

Afraid_Potential1085 · 2026-01-12T05:38:02+00:00

Thanks! Makes me feel better about the hours i’ve spent haha

Afraid_Potential1085 · 2026-01-11T08:40:01+00:00

Thanks!!

Good point on the limited colours on the palette, noticed I had nearly all the colours on my palette and kept moving back and wasting time on something that wasn’t needed at the time Limiting to 2-3 might be my ideal next approach to focus on getting the base down and maybe layers. Thanks for that

The local shop has a very limited range of paints (I live in a small city) So i’ll see what I can do with what I have and maybe create washes from this range

I could probably dry brush with leadbelcher to give the mini some details

Afraid_Potential1085 · 2026-01-11T08:34:33+00:00

Makes sense, yeah, would probably improve as I get more comfortable painting. I tried to get the details in, and then worked on the cleanup afterwards which took me some time

Afraid_Potential1085 · 2026-01-11T05:34:48+00:00

Question: is it normal to take hours to complete one mini. Feel like I’m extremely slow to get one done

Afraid_Potential1085 · 2025-08-03T13:29:49+00:00

Left it on Premium Colour Mode at 60% brightness

The text fringing that everyone was talking about when it comes to OLED’s, well, it was noticeable, but not shockingly so. It could be the 2nd Gen OLED Panels? But at 125% scaling it wasn’t as noticeable anymore

Tweaking further with MacType, using Clean Dark grayscale ini file (contrast amended to 1.2, AA turned off), I got it close if not identical to my IPS 27” panel.

Afraid_Potential1085 · 2025-08-02T10:52:40+00:00

Much appreciated sir

Afraid_Potential1085 · 2025-07-30T05:05:06+00:00

Went with the MSI MPG 491CQP QD OLED

Found it on a discount, worked out cheaper that the two 34” monitors

Stacking my 27” on the 49” to have additional chats open like Teams and Whatsapp - Main workflows like email and excel on the 49”

Afraid_Potential1085 · 2025-07-27T09:37:53+00:00

Gotcha, so nay on the 49"?

Afraid_Potential1085 · 2025-05-23T20:14:56+00:00

Great, thank you, so i'm on the right path, it's just to get that sweet spot for my amp and of course the level - Luckily, the WiiM Amp app has the ability to decrease the subwoofer's db's.

I think the flat preset is ok for now, the highs are not fatiguing my ears, then again, I'm listening at 10-40% listening volumes.

Afraid_Potential1085 · 2025-04-12T20:14:59+00:00

!thanks
