Amazing Earbuds!

Bought these from Crutchfield about a month ago as an introduction to Aptx. After having to decide between the Denon Perl Pro and the Bose Quietcomfort, I stumbled upon these! Did some research on them and decided to give them a try. After a good 30 day listen, it was safe to say that I am amazed by how well built these are and how AMAZING the sound quality is. They're not even lossless but with them being full range every little detail is so clear! Y'all did a good job with these!!

Had to be replaced 3 times

Earphones kept on stop working and needing to be replaced, staff would blame multiple different factors, finally blaming my earwax for keeping one earphone from charging. I mean seriously, who doesn't have earwax?!?! Maybe design your products better if that's the problem! Finally gave me the sport model that lasted longer. Don't see the sport model being availble anymore...

Amazing sound and quality build

I mainly listen to music in Hi Fi [Tidal] with a Samsung Galaxy phone, in my commuting by bike and walk, eventually I make phone calls, one of the great features is the multipoint functionality while working in the computer and being able to answer calls from the phone. The main reason to buy these earbuds its sound, my last pair was the Sennheiser CX400BT and after 3 years one earbud fail, so instead of buying the same product [which I feel disappointed by the reliability] I choose to try another renowned audio specialist brand and I am not disappointed. The construction and materials looks durable, the app connect its very straightforward and the connection with multiple devices are seamless. The same functionality of more expensive products at half the price from a quality and experienced brand.

A product that wants to be good but isn't

These are great headphones, but they become very disappointing when you need to use the Microphone. The headphones switch from Stereo mode to Hands Free AG and the audio becomes noticeably degraded. It makes them very poor for use with a laptop or computer and really only useful for a mobile device. I've tried to have one device using the microphone with my Phone still providing music via audio and no audio comes through. Incredibly disappointing for the price as their competitors at this price point have no issue handling both. When in Stereo mode the audio is amazing, which makes this all the more disappointing.

Impressed!

I am paralyzed due to ALS. I wear earphones for 18 hours a day. Nice to block out the sound of my ventilator. Plus I appreciate quality sound. For reference, I own and use the following: Master and Dynamic MW08 & MW07 go Sony WF-C500 Cambridge Audio melomania touch Samsung Galaxy Buds plus Lypertek L7 Out of these, the Audio Technica Ath-cks50tw sound the best, narrowly beating out the MW08 and melomania touch. Battery life, comfort, app and features are at the top. The only thing that is average (like the MW08) is the passive noise isolation. Reliability has been flawless. I don't write many reviews, but I am really impressed. Great product and the price is more than competitive.
