Nice Bob! Absolutely classic. Cheers.

Simply some of the finest. Truly beautifully engineered.

I’m gonna have to get a pair to try out. I love quality stuff.

Excellent review 👏

They look like iron man headphones

This was a good unboxing. Allot KZreadrs, and its not many… but the ones that unbox high end audio gear, never seem to go over the details. Especially when it comes to High end receivers, like Anthem, arcam, marantz. Good job dude.

Keep the B&O content coming!

I been in love with Bang & Olfsen since the Form 2's. I've also been listening to Bowers & Wilkins. I'll try to give them a try. My first headphones were the Optimus Pro 25's, which are Koss. Then, I worked my way to Bose, then Bowers & Wilkins, and V-Moda. My second favorite color is blue, but something about red. I like red. I'm currently wearing my JBL reflect flows, and they sound pretty good.

I might buy a pair!

you can wear them for 300 hours in a row without getting sore ears 👌👌

Nice review to the best headphones to date

Hey Bob, just wanted to say welcome home brother. Bet it feels good to be back in Vegas after your trip back to Texas. We’re waiting for the gate update video now. Take care and be safe my friend.

Just got mine in yesterday. I'm in love with them! 😍 (Had to look at the user guide to figure out that in order to use the audio cable, the headphones need to be turned on.)

These look so good

I have the b&o h9i headphones. They sound killer. I've been using them for 5 years maybe

I love the Red color Bob!!! They definitely look like the Rolls Royce of headphones. I have always had a problem of headphone resting on my ear cartilage and after a half hour or so it really would start causing me pain on my ear cartilage because they are too small for my ear to surround it. It doesn’t look like these suffer from that problem from what you said in your review. I’ll get them! Where are they Made???

You're gonna need to update your avatar with the new B&o headphones now, Bob! Great review. 👊😎

Focal Bathys and the Mark Levinson 5909 are the two best wireless over-ears for sound. If you liked the B & O, those two are the next step.

Thank You

*10:04* - "And leather is much more breathable than plastic." I can hear the "breathing" sound when I use a bit of force to press the headphones onto my ears. Wind gushes in, wind gets sucked out.

Great review Bob. Would definitely be a splurge for me but they seem like great quality. I had to repair my sons beats twice already. Absolute crap quality. Thanks for sharing!

cool can,t wait on more B&O video,s from you :)

So an update on these. I have been wearing them and listening to music for about 5 hours straight now. I just couldn't stop. If I have one complaint it's that they don't seem loud enough for me, but that could be the source of my iPhone, playing iTunes. Playing streaming Sirius / Xm seemed even lower. I guess B&O is trying to protect my hearing which I know has got to be damaged after years of riding Harleys and working for Heavy Metal bands and going to concerts. I was usually at the stage working and I never wore ear protection. Anyway, the sound is absolutely clear, no distortion or fuzz but that is also because they just won't go loud enough to do that. Using the APP, you can adjust them more and the bass makes you feel like the ground is moving. Just for fun, I tried my Bose's and they were hollow with no bass at all. I used to think they were fine. They are not. Not if you are comparing to these. Not even close. Again, it's 3:30am and I have been wearing them since about 10pm I think? They are comfortable. Not sweaty. Not crushing my skull. There was a few times that the bass was making me feel a little nauseous on certain songs and I had adjust it down. My head was throbbing. The weird thing is that it's not loud, it doesn't hurt your ears. It's just clear as a bell. Streaming XM kind of sounds like shit because you can definitely hear the compression as compared to Apple FLAC files. It's also really irritating when the Dj's come and talk, you immediately have to turn it down because these guys are popping the mics and breathing... uggg I have never owned a pair of high end headphones like these before, not on this level, so this all new to me. Most of the reviews I have seen want to put these down for what seems to be two reasons, the price and the fact that they can't affiliate link sell them because they aren't sold 3rd party. They usually pick the Sony's and I suspect because they are louder with more punch and they are easier to sell off Amazon and make money from. I keep going back to the fact that these are lamb-skin leather and really comfortable. The head band or the cupps are not sweaty. The Apple's, like most others are some vegan-plastic bullshit and people say they get steamy and gross after a while. I can honestly say my ears feel fine after hours of wear. When I take them off and cover the cups with my hands, I can't hear them. So the bleed from them is minimal. I have never been a headphones guy, but I am changing my mind because I would rather wear these than just hear the TV or the radio, this is some amazing shit. Listen, these things are fucking expensive and way over priced, I know this, you can get something for much much less that probably sounds just fine to you because if you don't have them handy to compare them to you won't know what you are missing. I wanted to try them using the stereo 1/8" cord but I realized I didn't even have anything I could find to plug them into! I don't think it would matter because these aren't passive and need to be "on" in order to operate so they probably simply decode and process the audio regardless. I will update this as time goes on if anything changes.

Also, for those with comments about the longevity of them, how long the battery will last, etc. I took them apart to have a peek, the battery is easily replaceable for $10. Its not a big deal. I doubt that the Bluetooth technology will change much over the years considering how it is implemented in al the vehicles, portable speakers, etc. I am sure they will be just a valid and useful in 10 or 20 years as they are today.

I went to a place and tried on the Bowers and Wilkins PX8 they sound really good and r loud I had them at 70 percent volume and they were still a lil loud. Last week I tried on the h95s and for sone reason just sounded low for me even at max volume for 900 I thought it would be a lil louder. I will say this they sounded great though if they were a lil louder I would've gotten them however I tried them ob with my old phone I just got a new s23 ultra this week and the music sounds better with my in ear buds than b4. I'm gonna go back to BO and see if there's a difference. I hope there is cause I liked everything else about but my music gotta be sort of loud. I also tried thr focal bathys not bad either. Decisions decisions. Hows the ANC in thr BWs? Also phone calls can people hear u well and vice versa?

Sony sound is a million times worse than these 😅 H95 is amazing sounding and in comparison to the px8 and the focal bathys. They just dont get as loud as the others

Bob, if I'm spending $1000 on headphones somebody must have stolen my credit card, or I accidentally miss read the sticker thinking it said $10.00!!! I doubt I would pay a $100 on a pair of headphones, but that just me. I know Bob you like your stuff "fancy"... However these things are made in China just like everything else these days. If it works good it works, and I've got cheap headphones from when I was a kid still around the house, and they still work, that's probably only due to quality was much better back then, of course don't have the features of today's headphones. Bob, those you got there might be a bit better quality then some headphones on the market today but they will fail just like any other headphones. Anodised cheap aluminum, well might be slightly better than plastic but still there is still plastic construction on them, there just simply made to look a "small bit" better then others and still just cheap construction from China, with "maybe" a bit better component design then some other brands. Your simply buying a marked up well known name brand product that's sold out to China like the rest of them and kept their quality know prices. You can get headphones that work just as good with most of the same features for less than a 10th of that cost. I guess probably one of the biggest upgrade would be real leather over most others. The real question is how long are you going to actually wear them at a time, I guess that might determine whether they're worth it or not, I don't know. As far as these lasting a lifetime the technology wise, as it keep growing I'm sure the technology in these will be obsolete within 10 years and with only a 3 year warranty... I'm sure the battery won't last much longer than that. I just guess I won't understand, definitely not worth it for me even if they were the best headphones in the world, as I can imagine most people would feel the same. Bob if you're happy with them I guess that's all that matters.

According to B&O, some components and items are assembled or made in China but their production facility where they make all their products has been in Denmark since 1925. Every time I do a video about a luxury item, someone has to go on a long diatribe about what a waste of money it is and why they are a genius because they are so "smart" with their money and live in mediocrity and only buy cheap shit. As for their longevity, the 1/8" stereo jack is the same as the one that has been used for the last 40 years and with an adapter would also work with all the 1/4" inputs for the last 100 years. The battery might need to be changed and things like that, but considering that I am repairing and working on my B&O products from the mid-80's, all over 40 years old and, most basic parts are the same. I am not worried about it. So yeah, you can drive a Toyota Corrolla to go buy a hot dog and listen your $5 headphones and save lots of money!
