Does anyone know how if the OpenRun Pro are a big improvement over the Aeropex (OpenRun)?
I got in on this deal and comparing them now (I actually have OpenComm I got from work but i believe sound quality is very similar to OpenRun). I would not call it a big improvement worth an extra $100 or whatever, i'd probably value the upgrade at about $30 maybe $50 max.
Im not an audiophile but can notice the extra bass, when I put on the opencomm it's a bit higher and less smooth, but when im wearing them im like "this is totally fine". When I put on the pros, it's just smoother and im like yea that's kind of worth it. But then I put on opencomm again and immediately say "this is fine" again.
Take that for what you will. In my case im an idiot and bought because I thought my opencomm were broken and the volume was too low. Turns out there's two different EQ modes by holding volume up/down you can switch between them. The vocal booster mode is much worse for music but better for ebooks/podcasts.
I think im going to keep even though im a little torn, but in my case I also consider getting rid of the boom mic an upgrade for running and I also really like the blue color. 25% increase in battery life and faster charging is nice as well.
