noise levels are not as aggressively lowered as they
shrill
narrow and forced the sound was
inconsistent sounds like people talking or a car whizzing by will
nice to be able to change between airplanes and office type noise
it s not just with music that the H9 s shine
the headphones fail to isolate your voice from the ambient sounds making for a very noisy
wind noise carries over to phone calls
OP has left town Click to expand
headphones cannot be repaired
They never lose control or sound of their element
It may not display this or other websites correctly
high hat snaps and cymbal crashes
sound broken or defective
the sucked-out sound when the ANC was activated

Mids - A bit bland
a bit boring
