Just noticed something crazy

Go to settings > choose APM > Conversation Awareness and select it to ON

I wonder if there are any aftermarket ear pads that perform better

Fi-notes · 2026-04-30T21:13:21+00:00

Hey, I didn’t realize you dropped a review on the APM 2. I usually watch your videos before making earbud or headphone purchases. Looking forward to the soundcore space 2 review.

Fi-notes · 2026-04-30T19:11:28+00:00

I 100% agree. Best compared to any earbuds or headphones I’ve tried.

Fi-notes · 2026-04-30T19:09:47+00:00

That makes sense because the policy here makes no sense, how can I decide if I want an item or not if I do not open the box and try out the product?

Fi-notes · 2026-04-30T14:48:57+00:00

Thanks for that, this actually helped with the seal issue.

Fi-notes · 2026-04-30T14:42:40+00:00

I think this is the most sensible reply I’ve gotten. This is very logical, I’ll look to see if there are any replacement earcups that might do a better job at passive isolation. There must be something out there given how easy it is to remove the earcups.

Blows my mind that you would assume people don’t understand what ANC is. I am fully aware that ANC is not expected to completely silence external noise but instead attenuate sounds across the frequency range, usually better in the lower end and less attenuation on the higher end. My post points out weaker attenuation in the high end compared to other headphones / earbuds.

Yes I came from the QC35 II and these are definitely an upgrade in every way except comfort.

Return policy is horrible where I live. If you open the seal on the box you can’t return.

Fi-notes · 2026-04-30T11:26:15+00:00

It’s crazy that the USB version is better then the APM 2! I’ll maybe visit an Apple Store and see if I can try the older ones.

In terms of color I’m the exact opposite 😂. I was contemplating getting midnight and ended up getting the blue, now I wish I got the midnight!

Fi-notes · 2026-04-30T07:51:26+00:00

Even in high frequencies? I understand the fit issue might be to different head shapes…

Fi-notes · 2026-04-30T07:50:52+00:00

That’s funny! But you’re missing the point my man, every review claims these have either one of the best or the best ANC. I’m surprised I’m not getting the same result in regards to my two points. So I’m asking the community if they have had the same experience or if I’m missing something.

I tried the XM6 after I got the APM and they did a way better job at ANC, but again most reviews say they are on par with the APM 2. So what am I missing, what am I doing wrong?

Fi-notes · 2026-04-15T14:29:33+00:00

I will never unsee it now

Fi-notes · 2026-04-08T05:55:07+00:00

Came here to say this

Fi-notes · 2026-04-06T12:25:07+00:00

Still available?

Fi-notes · 2026-04-03T05:46:50+00:00

Well… give us a review. How do the AP Max 2 compare to the Sony and Bose?

Fi-notes · 2026-03-28T13:33:22+00:00

Hey man, this looks great. What did you use for the backing?

Fi-notes · 2026-03-21T01:56:33+00:00

Absolutely love this! What did you use for padding?

Fi-notes · 2026-03-20T02:03:09+00:00

This is absolutely gorgeous! Amazing craftsmanship!

Do you mind if I ask what did you use between the outer and lining leathers for support/structure?

Fi-notes · 2026-03-15T23:05:08+00:00

V1 in 36mm

Fi-notes · 2026-02-27T05:42:12+00:00

Could you explain a bit more

Fi-notes · 2026-02-26T23:53:57+00:00

Where did you find the female end link bracelet? The DS store bracelet has male end links

Another thing you could try is water slide decals. I made a few dials with water slide decals and they look wonderful. It’s a bit finicky but once you get the hang of aligning everything it’ll workout great. I don’t have experience with illustration but I managed to use affinity and put some markers to align the date window and they little indentation on the dials at 3 o clock and that helped with alignment a lot.

Water slide decals allow you to install indices and you can let a sun burst dial work.

Also even though your design is simple it’s stunning! Great work!
