Reply to comment by No-Context5479 in Soundcore Q45 , Momentum 3 , HD560s in one week. Finding IEM equivalent to HD560s for gym by ducky92fr

Hi there,
TWS I've tested some models from some brands such as sen but I need the wide soundstage and not feel like I listen to the music under the water, you know what I mean. I'm using liberty 2 air pro from Soundcore and kinda enjoying it until I bought HD 560s. this morning going to the gym but it doesn't sound good enough for me anymore.

I use it mostly with my iPhone. I'm waiting for your suggestion.

Thank you

u/ducky92fr, Well the Liberty 2 Air Pro sound muffled because they're tuned twirh a recessed midrange, big bass shelf so that muffles stuff... The HF560S on the other hand is neutral tuned so it sounds brighter, clearer with music... Also no IEM will give you the Soundstage by virtue of just how they interact with your pinna(they don't interact with the Pinna so don't create enough bounces to simulate headstage...

Soundstage goes this way:

Speakers >>>>>> Over Ear Headphones >> Flathead Earbuds > IEMs and TWS.

So please don't chase soundstage in IEMs or TWS... Change better tonality, imaging and resolution rather.

My recommendation for TWS is any of these:

Apple Airpods Pro 2nd Gen (my main recommend) - https://www.apple.com/airpods-pro/

Samsung Galaxy Buds2 Pro -https://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/audio/headphones/galaxy-buds2-pro-graphite-sm-r510nzaaxar/

Or

Bose Soundsport Free - https://www.amazon.com/Bose-SoundSport-Truly-Wireless-Headphones/dp/B0748G1QLP

Yes the Airpods Pro 2 is perfect for you since you use an iPhone so it's like a match made it heaven... Tonally accurate piece of gear that is sweat resistant so good enough for exercising too. Honestly it's a slam dunk... (Also when you get it, I advice never going beyond 80dB of listening SPL) u/ducky92fr

Also the Sennheiser Momentum TWS 3 is a good one but both the Apple Airpods 2 and the Buds2 Pro are better tonally in the upper midrange is all... They're also good but these two I've mentioned are better buys

Yes. And with transparency mode on you get a very underrated “open back feel”.

I'm wondering why people keeps saying tws momentum 3 is better :|

I had both. If you’re talking about the Airpods Pro then yeah the Momentum are better no doubt. But the Airpods Pro 2? I don’t think they’re even on the same league. Most reviewers consistently say these are the best TWS.
