  • Ear cushions not included with AirPods Max warranty replacements

    Another reason besides the sound quality verses price argument not to buy these things.

  • AirPods Max review: it's not easy to justify the price

    Best non-biased review I’ve read here in a long time. For a couple hundred more you could get a pair of B&W P9. I think Apple has lost their way here. While the integration into the Apple ecosystem is great, the price is simply a money grab and an insult to the Apple faithful. 
    $999 B&W P9 have really poor build quality I’m told. I think P7 might be a better buy - can’t seem to find anyone selling either now though.

    What other Wireless ANC Headphones can you get for $600 that are better sounding? That is the question. I don’t think there is a truly comparable alternative.

    Another good question is what better sounding wireless (non-ANC) headphones can you get for similar money?

    By better sounding, I mean more neutral, not cheap trashy fake bass sony and beats.

    Swing and a miss. The P9’s have excellent quality. They are my reference headphones and I use them when not using my P7 Black Carbons. Personally I don’t care what people buy. It’s their money but for me, I choose wisely.

  • How to get the most out of your new AirPods Max

    So people claim the best feature of all the AirPod series is the automatic switching, and here is the article stating the obvious...it is annoying because it will switch devices when you don't want them to...so here is how to disable the feature.  So people are going to blow $549 to turn off that feature.

    Here is how to get the most out of them...don't buy them and keep your wallet happy.  Buy the Sony or Bose, both the highest rated in the industry, and save $200 (or more since the Sonys are on sale for $279).

    Apple has lost their minds with their current pricing.
    Or spend the money on a pair of B&W PX7 Black Carbon edition and enjoy.

  • Can Apple's HomePod take on a surround sound theater system?

    inplainviewinplainview
    Dumbest story ever. Are really comparing Homepods to a dedicated home system? I’m running 2 B&W 804’s in the front, 2 B&W PM1’s in the back for surround, B&W PVD1 subwoofer, and a B&W HTM62 Center Channel, powered by a Denon X3400 AVR and this system blows away just about anything it comes across and someone actually thinks 2 HomePods can remotely compete. That’s some real Apple fanboy shit.
