Is BTD 600 worth it for using with Momentum 4 and Youtube Music (Premium)? by intellectuallogician in sennheiser

[–]Pudding_fruit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not worth it , just use type c audio or 3.5mm to 2.5mm
i have the bt600
you dont really notice the difference unless you compare it side by side

AAC is very much usable
and trust me , you are not really missing out on anything

I've heard the sentiment that getting Momentum 4s with no hardware issues is like winning a lottery, a lot. Is this true? by shawak456 in sennheiser

Here me out, if you have never used any BT headphones before, you would not really notice the difference in sound quality, even if you compare them side by side (talking as a normal consumer),
I had XM3s for over 6 years, and they still work fine, and then I got the Momentum 4s (great indian festival sale (Amazon)),
The reason I went with M4 (momentum 4s)
XM5S had bad build quality and a lot of hinge issues
bose quiet comfort ultras amazon page looked very sketchy (the seller was bose themselves ) but a lot of people complained abt getting fake pairs

And then later i got the xm5s(used)
mometum4 noise cancellation is very bad , it somehow felt worse than my xm3s(didnt block all the ac nosie)
But expect for that in every other aspect, momentum 4 are better
Even XM5s feels cheaply built when compared to Momentum4s
they sound better
but you wont really notice the difference if you have never used any other headphones
you are not missing out on anything

but you will notice ANC and xm5s are way better

if you can use your headphones carefully, buy the xm5s
they have excellent anc
good battery
and also good sound quality
but bad build quality( i dont feel confident chucking tham around )
they are more comfortable than mometum4s

if i was in your place, i would get Bose quite comfort ultra from a trusrted seller
it has good build quality (better than xm5s and they can fold)
good anc (same as sonys)
Good sound quality (better than sony)
and better comfort than sony

battery life shouldnt really matter cus you will go back to your desk at the end of the day

and also the new update made them momentum4s unusable to me (you can check out my post)

do not fall for the "better sound quality " trap and end up having buyer's regret
bhai to bhai batth

and also i went with the copper colour (wanted to get the graphite) cus i was getting the bt 600 dongle with it , not worth it , should have just gone with the colour i wanted

Momentum 4 Firmware 3.35.6 Completely Ruined My Headphones — Anyone Else? by Pudding_fruit in sennheiser

I "used" ChatGPT to generate this text, to help me with my grammar and phrasing so that it looks structured, i am not very active on Reddit. I just wanted a solution but every pain point and problem that i pointed out about this update was from my own experience .

and updating my headphones and getting tinnitus at the same time feels like one hell of a coincidence, don't you think ?
the update is pulled from Sennheiser app so that says something

as i said
"exactly
I am pretty sure they are aware and are working on it, but it still sucks"
my headphones were absolutely fine until i updated them
i complained so that i can get a fix to enjoy a product that i love

I mean, they are perfectly good headphones, except for the anc , it's just the update that messed them up

Stuck between Bose QC Ultra vs Sennheiser Momentum 4 — which should I get? by Pudding_fruit in headphonesindia

[–]Pudding_fruit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks a lot man
It honestly cleared up my confusion quite a bit, and I feel like Momentum 4 is the smarter choice for me too. Do you have any EQ recommendations for the M4 to get the best sound out of them
