Thank you for the video. In my opinion, you were quite harsh on these headphones. Both the Sony 720 and these were class leading (of the ones I tried, along with consensus amongst other publications) at this price point. I found 1 of the criticisms valid (they are a bit tight) but the problem with the other knocks is that you simply cannot compare this offering from Senn with other offerings in significantly higher price brackets. Consider for example Senn gives you here both manually adjustable eq and wizard driven. How do we come to a knock conclusion because we don’t have the gold standard of both simply because an esoteric AKG has the feature? For the price point, I found the package of build quality, sound, controls and ANC to be the best for me, with the 720 right in the mix. My 2 cents.

That weird frequency response result is a reason people should be able to do their own EQ.

The Shure Aonic 50 (both gens) have the parametric EQ (4 bands only but also allows you to select the range as well as the frequency and gain).

Thanks for the review I was close to buying them but I also have a large head and always issues with over-ear headphones. Do you have any other recommendations for "large head" individuals?

I wonder if the frequency numbers on the eq are really the number shown or just a picked number to represent low, medium, high? Have you ever tested it on any headphone❓

I used to have a sennheiser HD595, it fit well over my ears, do you know if the Accentum compares to that one for size?

Ok I know that without hearing recommending a headphone is not a the best thing but theres also Edifier -Stax spirit s3? that thing is tuned to be flat to IEF neutral? and speaking of which why dont you guys review it? and theres also jbl tune 710-720 bt , I've tried these. they sound great

Currently i'm using Soundcore Q30. I don't know is that worth switch to this headphone. In my country there's no option like try it sound then buy it.Any recommendations ?

What to buy these or the audio technica ath-m50xbt2?

I really loved that app eq test functionality in my Momentum 3:s. Really just a fun interactive way to do it. The kind of problem is that with headphones that you'll often be using on the go, you might want different frequency responses when you're, say, on the bus, or in the office or school, or at home.

I actually bought the momentum 4 when they came out and I had to return them for numbers of reasons. But I had these Accentums for about two weeks now and they are perfect for me. 😊

@@thefoolsgold The Momentums 4 "M4" were great sounding headphones. But the touch controls, weight, warm ear cups and the feaulty auto on/off feature in the case were the main issues. I actually like the earcups on the Accentums a little more (they feel slightly bigger to my ears comparing) and I dont get fatigue after a couple of hours because of the lighter weight and foam on the earcups as to M4. I would say the Accentums are a little more cold sounding with about -20% bass compared to the M4. I think the M4 were to bass heavy before EQ.

You have to have some serious OCD when slight background hiss bothers you (when no music is playing). I can go to sleep to slight hiss. I can completely ignore it.

I like the idea of showing FR graphs with preference “boundaries,” but I think you should still always show the Diffuse Field target as a dotted line. Otherwise I don’t have any way to gauge the “boundaries” against my own auditory memory of regions I know I’m sensitive to from other headphones.

@ResolveReviews

9 ай бұрын

So we're not using a 'diffuse field target', we're using the DFHRTF of the measurement rig. So this is compensated to flat DF, NOT tilted DF, if that makes sense. The tilt is the preference bounds - I think I showed it a bit in this video where you can see the 10dB slope within the preference bounds to help folks get a sense of that. But, in truth that 10dB line is just a far more coarse grained view of the preference window. It's the same thing, just without the nuances of preference variation around that 10dB tilt.

It's officially time to call this headphone the Senova Accentum

The ergonomic data companies use for headphone design must be totally wack....or non existent. Who does it well consistently? Anyone? Bose might be the closest. I remember the OG triport was revolutionary to what I had owned in the past. The comfort was 10x going from headphones that touch your ears to one that doesn't. That was too long ago, everyone else should have figured it out by now! FFS we can 3d print stuff now, there should not be many excuses left for bad ergonomics

Sooooo... at the end, are these headphones GOOD enough for the average consumer and people who want to listen in detail to their music, like rock music?... Stop doing such reviews talking about measurements and frequencies and stuff that most people don't understand about a product that is focused on casual listeners!

Ah, the consumer negative ear-gain to make sure no one will find then unpleasant even if they sound flat and pointless.

Dumbing down everything everywhere to "automatic" and "smart", with no option to override it, often even in so-called "pro" versions that cost more, absolutely infuriates me. You don't know me, you don't know my tastes, you don't know how smart your "smart" systems actually are - so just leave an optional "advanced" or "manual" mode, and explicitly color-code it in orange and red, and put a big label on it if you have to... and let it be. You can even lock it first somewhere in the menu, but _let people choose for themselves_ when they already paid you, goddammit.

So Sennheiser think that most people are too dumb to know how to use EQ. I'd like to see them use that in their marketing campaign. Something like "We're including EQ for dummies because we know most people are too dumb to understand EQ." LOL

Sennheiser is making too much headphones, and if they were one bit less unremarkable - it wouldn't be that much of a problem.
