Or these flagship AKG N5005s for $200. 5 drivers, plus "filters" and an optional BT cable (to use with some inexpensive IEMs?). Orig. retail $1,000. Not many reviews, but I pulled the trigger. Free...

I wouldn't say better sound quality than BTR5. But the dac on it is getting real good and it's getting additional support through updates. My phone doesn't have Aptx-adptive either so I ended up...

I own the Shure 535. They are very good. Neutral but forward sound.
The W60 sounds more dynamic. Better bass but more of a V curve. The W80 are more neutral sounding than the W60 and a little...

Tthe W80-V3 sound pretty good, but I'm holding out for the new model with the multi-phase quantum nanotube drivers.

Looking at the UTWS5 right now, didn't even know something like this came out. I'm still using the BTR5 for wireless, would you say this has similar quality sound? I'm using it specifically for home...

Have you ever tried the shure 535, how do you think those would compare to the w60 or w80.
Much thanks

Ty for the feedback, as a complete amateur my only reference point is the Triple Fi 10’s 😅. Picked up the shure 535 for $200 last year and they sound just as good
What do you think about the w60...

846 is iconic. Tried the W80s. Was not impressed woth the depth of Soundstage. Very neutral buy not all that exciting. That said, no clue about V3 and the cable is probably already going to create...

These are my first high end IEM and I’m not an audiophile by any mean. I listen to mostly classical and movie sound tracks. I can compare to all the other headphones I have.
- Shure SE215
- AirPod...

I had the old triple fi's. They don't sound as good as this. Westone is less bulky and more comfortable to wear as well.
