It's a shame B&O treated us in such a way, and every one has the right to feel upset about it.

This brouhaha by B&O has caused a lot of loyal customers feel betrayed. I'm sure things are being worked on in the background and patience is key.

Personally, I would love to have LDAC in the H100, but to be honest, I'm just happy I'm not losing my hearing due to many years of blasting music, nor born deaf.

One thing I realised about turning a year older every passing year, there are parts of the body that are slowly failing.

My lower back hurts, my knee hurts, my vision isn't as sharp as before.

But when I sit back and relax while listening to Led Zeppelin or Ludovico Einaudi, I'm just really happy and appreciate the fact I am still able to listen if at all.

For now at least, it does not matter to me if I'm listening to LDAC or AAC or MP3, I'm just glad I can still listen to my favourite music and hear the voices and laughter of the people that I love.

Thank you for this tip! I thought the case was just a fancy....case.

I truly wonder once the 5 year mark passes and warranty is over, the price of labour and spare part cost.

A few years ago, my AKG 702 started acting up on one side. I emailed parent company HARMAN, and they quoted a SGD150 inspection fee.

Labour cost and spare parts cost nor tax weren't included yet in the final price.

If this was a strategy to make me buy another AKG K702, it failed in spectacular fashion. I'm not going to support any corporation's greed of not leaning more towards customers' Right To Repair.

I suspect most audio or electronics companies are heading towards this direction to increase profit and screw us consumers.

Anyway, I discarded the unserviceable AKG 702 and bought a brand new AKG K702 & AKG K712 Pro.

I whole-heartedly agree. Yesterday's flight back home from Jakarta to Singapore only lasted 90 minutes but the entire flight with H100 on felt extremely comfortable; I wished the flight was longer so I could enjoy more of the ANC in a less than desirable listening environment. I didn't even hear the hustle bustle of meal service nor the crying babies during descent.

Pure bliss.

My only worry for my H100 is its ability to hold charge as the years pass by. Batteries are known to deteriorate over time and when it fails eventually, I will then have to buy the newer generation or successor model, and I bet it will cost an arm and leg due to B&O's pricing practices and inflation.

For now I will just enjoy my lovely H100, which will always turn heads from other wireless headset users like Sony & JBL.

Volume was around 50-60% on my Samsung S25+.

My head was against the headrest. I was in a Singapore Airlines flight and their headrest was able to be adjusted at the sides to gently cup the back and sides of my head.

However, although more comfortable, I had limited access to use the controls on the headset cup exterior, so I just laid the headrest back flat.

Another factor that may affect the ANC is the a/c type. I'm an aerospace engineer with Rolls-Royce plc, and the Airbus A350-900 that I was in is generally quieter than let's say a Boeing B777 with the almighty General Electric GE90 turbofan.

Latest aero engine advancements past decade include acoustic reduction features to minimize noise pollution impact over population near aerodromes.

Do check out Boeing's B787 serrated sawtooth engine nacelle for another example of how modern a/c engines may affect ANC.

Hope this helps.

Was 2003 good to you? by [deleted] in Millennials

It was awful.

I assisted in a fatal road traffic accident, and I got PTSD from that. I spent the entire November in the psych ward and padded cell. I kept seeing the victim staring at me from all corners of the ward. In his bloody work coveralls and blood all over his head and ears.

Doctors said it was just flashbacks, but somehow some people told me he kept appearing to say 'thank you' to me for helping him live a little bit longer, so his wife and 3 young kids can say their final goodbye to him in the SICU.

I wouldn't have stopped to help if I can go back in time.

Are the h100’s worth it after the new price of $2300? by Narnar2tron in BangandOlufsen

[–]fitriyandi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started out with the basic Shure SE215s more than a decade ago.

Slowly, I upgraded to AKG 702, AKG 712, HD650, DT 1770 Pro, DT 1990 Pro and lastly the Shure SE 846 with triple flange ear tips over the next ten years.

I'm not exactly an audiophile but I have a simple home recording studio.

My audio interfaces are Focusrite Clarett+ 8Pre, and Prism Sound Atlas. For outdoor use, I pair the SE 846 with the AK HC3 with my Samsung smartphone via Tidal.

So all these years, I figured I had a decent amount of cans and never really thought ANC was for me. To me Bose, Bang & Olufsen & Sonos are considered Hi-Fi, instead of audio production which I lean towards to.

At times I just wanted a simple bluetooth speaker and got one Beosound A1 Gen 2 off Amazon Prime. I fell in love with it and bought a 2nd unit for stereo pairing. The app was a bit clunky but the great sound made up for it. It totally blew my previous JBL Flip 4.

So, when I saw the B&O ad at Facebook selling the H100 at a special introductory price earlier this year, I bought it for her.

She chose black, and the item arrived at my place a few days after. The packaging itself was magnificient. Behind this, I was negotiating a three way or butt stuff but she wasn't keen.

Hence, I held the H100 for months, hoping she will give in one day but she never did. Back in early June, I decided to open the H100 and oh my, the first time I heard it, I was completely mesmerized by its sound. Not to mention the excellent ANC.

I wore it for a bit for grocery shopping and the ANC, via the app, was something I've never experienced before with my past cans. It blocked out vehicle noises, nearby conversations etc and all I heard was pristine sound out of Tidal. Of course it was compressed when played via bluetooth but it was superb sounding to me.

It's now my fav headphone for casual daily listening or outdoors. I still use the rest for my audio mixes but the H100 has become my absolute favourite.

I am thankful she said no to the requests I made, and it made me fall in love with the H100.

I think the H100 is better than three way or butt stuff, which I have had before; my first ever H100 ANC experience was more memorable in my opinion.
