What reviewers think

Bloggers and YouTubers have tried this product—so we've summarized their strongest opinions below. Links to full reviews follow.

Product Strengths

  • Secure fit due to the 'TriFit' design, including ear hooks, sport fins, and multiple ear tip sizes
  • Good sound quality with an emphasis on bass, clear mids, and highs
  • Long battery life, providing around 11 hours of continuous playback
  • Durable design with nano-coating makes them sweat- and water-resistant

Product Considerations

  • Ear hooks can be stiff and cause discomfort for some users, especially during long listening sessions
  • Build quality, particularly the cord, was not as rugged as expected
  • The in-line remote commands aren’t as intuitive as they could be

Comparisons (according to reviewers)

  • Bassfit sounds similar to the Powerbeats 3, the Beats are slightly better built and more comfortable
  • Bassfit has more detail, but the Jaybird X4 has an app with a great EQ

Takeaway: The V-Moda Bassfit Wireless are good workout headphones because they sound great and will stay in your ears no matter how hard you exercise. With a focus on bass and a secure fit, they're built to keep you motivated.

What are hifi reviews useful for? (1) Identifying products you should demo in person at a dealer. (2) Learning which products reviewers unanimously praise as the best they've heard (this means they probably are legitimately great). (3) Identifying a product's attributes that satisfy your idiosyncratic needs and tastes. Beyond that, we often discount what reviewers say because they heap praise on most products—and are often apprehensive about publishing strong criticism or comparisons between products. Further, they seldom have more than a few products on-hand, often relying on their memories to compare past products. Always listen for yourself.

Brand highlights

Taking a step back to look at reviewers' thoughts of the brand's entire lineup—not just this product—what stands out most is the following:

  • V-Moda headphones pursue rugged, military-grade construction.
  • V-Moda offers a "Live Play" sound signature (LP-Class) that emphasizes bass, in addition to a more balanced "Modern Audiophile" (M-Class) option.

HEXAMOVE LITE

  • Positioning: The entry-level true wireless earbud set focused on affordability and portability.
  • Description: Delivers vibrant sound with a lightweight design and BLISS fittings for comfortable, all-day wear; compared to higher-tier models, its simplicity and low price make it ideal for everyday movement in small spaces and on a budget.

HEXAMOVE PRO

  • Positioning: A premium true wireless earbud set engineered for enhanced customization and sound control.
  • Description: Provides advanced features like a touch-gyro sensor and customizable EQ via the V-MODA app, offering a refined audio experience beyond what the Lite series achieves. Compared to over-ear options, it delivers smart controls and a more adjustable fit for active lifestyles.

CROSSFADE LP2

  • Positioning: A mid-range over-ear headphone built for live play and solid performance in both professional and everyday settings.
  • Description: Offers clear, vibrant sound with 50mm dual-diaphragm drivers and effective noise isolation, which sets it apart from entry-level wireless earbuds. In comparison to the higher-end M-100 PRO and M-200 ANC models, it balances cost and performance.

M-100 PRO

  • Positioning: A professional over-ear headphone designed for stage monitoring and performance-oriented applications.
  • Description: Features ceramic-coated drivers and newly developed swivel mounts for enhanced comfort and clear, punchy monitoring that outperforms budget models like the Crossfade LP2. Compared to the M-200 ANC, it focuses on straightforward, high-quality sound reproduction without advanced noise cancellation.

M-200 ANC

  • Positioning: A high-end wireless over-ear headphone that integrates active noise cancellation and extensive customization features.
  • Description: Uses hybrid active noise cancellation and a customizable sound profile through the V-MODA app, providing a tailored, immersive audio experience surpassing the simpler M-100 PRO model. Compared to other products in the lineup, its added wireless mobility, noise reduction, and smart controls meet the needs of users seeking versatile, technologically advanced functionality.

Our take on the brand

V-Moda pioneered extreme headphone customization with bespoke 3D-printed metal shields in materials like sterling silver and platinum costing up to $40,000, plus unusually rigorous durability engineering including SteelFlex headbands. The brand released unique features like dual 3.5mm inputs for daisy-chaining headphones, a modular ecosystem that transforms audiophile cans into gaming headsets via their BoomPro microphone.

Our Summary

Product Strengths

  • Premium design and build quality, using materials like aluminum and glass for a luxurious feel
  • Sound quality is generally praised as excellent, detailed, and balanced, especially after equalization
  • Comfortable and secure fit, particularly for those with smaller ear canals
  • App provides an intuitive EQ interface with customizable presets

Product Considerations

  • Active noise cancellation (ANC), while solid, is not considered the best on the market compared to brands like Sony or Bose
  • Some reviewers experienced connectivity issues, including problems with multipoint pairing and occasional signal dropouts
  • Battery life is respectable but not outstanding, with some reviewers noting shorter-than-advertised playback times
  • Responsiveness of the touch controls is sometimes too sensitive, leading to accidental pausing or track skipping
  • Some users have found the default sound profile (Optimal) to be somewhat flat or boring, requiring EQ adjustments

Comparisons (according to reviewers)

  • Compared to the Apple AirPods Pro, the EX has more clarity, better soundstage and separation, but tonal balance may be preferable on the Airpods Pro
  • Compared to the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3, the Beoplay EX offers a more balanced and detailed presentation with a more luxurious build
  • Compared to the Devialet Gemini II, the Gemini II offers a more neutral sound signature with advanced ANC capabilities, but Beoplay EX offers a more balanced and detailed presentation with a more luxurious build

Takeaway: The Beoplay EX offers a luxurious experience with refined sound and a stylish design. It's a good choice for those who prioritize sound quality and aesthetics, and value a premium feel.

HIFIMAN
Svanar Wireless
499
/
Released
2023
SVANAR Wireless — Ultimate Personal Audio in True Wireless Form.
Check Amazon
HIFIMAN is a hifi brand known for its planar magnetic headphones that use extremely thin diaphragms and acoustically transparent "Stealth Magnets" to reduce sound distortion. The company pioneered high-resolution portable audio players and creates electrostatic headphones that bring high-end sound quality to more accessible price points, as well as widely renowned flagship models such as the Susvara.
Expand Details

Our Summary

Product Strengths

  • Excellent sound quality, potentially challenging cabled IEMs, with a dynamic and holographic rendering and beautiful mids and airy treble.
  • Effective ANC, making it suitable for reducing ambient noise, even in noisy environments, with up to 35dB of noise attenuation.
  • Good build quality, with the IEMs made of lightweight metal and Kevlar, and a sturdy charging case.
  • Good bass performance, with texture and extension, punchy, without overpowering, and a powerful but tight impact.
  • Wide soundstage, creating a spacious and immersive listening experience.

Product Considerations

  • Connectivity issues with LDAC, especially outdoors or in areas with interference, leading to intermittent signal drops.
  • Transparency mode might generate turbulence in windy conditions due to microphone placement.
  • Limited codecs available, with no aptX support.
  • Physical size of the charging case is large and might not be pocket-friendly.
  • Included eartips may not be suitable for all ear sizes, with a shorter nozzle affecting fit for some users.

Comparisons (according to reviewers)

  • Vs Final ZE8000: Svanar Wireless offers a more W-shaped and punchy signature, greater upper mids gain, more precise imaging, and a vaster sound layering capability, while the ZE8000 sound more neutral to L shape, warmer, and have more sub bass boost and warmth.
  • Vs Noble FoKus Mystique: Svanar Wireless has some emphasis in the bass, but not as much, has stronger overall imaging performance—providing a wider soundstage and the best balance between the separation and cohesion in the imaging.
  • Vs HIFIMAN Svanar (wired): Svanar Wireless soundstage is taller and wider but not as deep, since clarity isn’t as sharp and clean, silence being more ”noisy”.
  • Vs Sony WF-1000XM4: The Svanar Wireless presents a much more detailed, natural and sophisticated kind of sound, while Sony has bloated bass, that overwhelms everything else.
  • Vs Apple AirPods Pro: The Svanar Wireless generally outperforms the AirPods Pro in sound quality.

Takeaway: The Svanar Wireless is a solid choice for TWS lovers, with a top-tier sound quality, effective ANC, and its convenience and comfort. It is innovative, less bass-heavy tuning, and overall a solid proposal.

Sennheiser
Momentum True Wireless 2
238
/
Released
2020
Leading audio technology and innovation with improved ergonomics designed for full day wearing and refined touch controls for a more personalised experience.
Check Amazon
Sennheiser pioneered the world's first open-back headphones with the HD 414 in 1968, which became the bestselling full-size headphone of all time, and later developed the HD 25, evolving from 1980s broadcast use to become the industry standard in DJ booths worldwide. The brand is known for unique engineering approaches, such as integrating high-voltage amplifiers directly into earcups with Carrara marble chassis in the HE 1, developing proprietary ring-radiator transducers and absorber technology to eliminate resonances, and creating the long-running MD 421 microphone that has remained in production since 1960.
Expand Details

Our Summary

Product Strengths

  • Excellent sound quality with depth, great soundstage, and crisp, clean elements
  • Active noise cancellation is a useful addition and blocks out rumbling and background chatter
  • The earbuds themselves are smaller compared to the previous version
  • Touch controls are responsive and easier to use than the old version, and customizable

Product Considerations

  • Continuous battery life with ANC on is quite short at around 4 hours
  • The case is not the smallest and can create a bulge in your pocket
  • Microphone sounds muffled
  • These do not support multi-connect, meaning that these cannot connect to a phone and a tablet simultaneously

Comparisons (according to reviewers)

  • Momentum 2's do not support multi-connect like the Jabra Elite 75T
  • AirPods Pro's transparent hearing quality is better than Momentum 2's
  • Sony's noise-cancelling has an edge over the Momentum True Wireless 2
  • Galaxy Buds Plus have great clarity, but the bass isn't as good as the Momentum 2's
  • The Momentum 2's sound better than AirPods
  • Momentum 2 is more comfortable and nicer to use, battery life is better, and noise-cancelling is included

Takeaway: The Momentum True Wireless 2 earbuds offer respectable noise cancelation, sound good, and are sweat-resistant. These could be worth buying if sound is the main priority.

Our Summary

Product Strengths

  • Very comfortable, especially for those who dislike silicone tips, making it suitable for long listening sessions.

  • Decent battery life for its size, with around 5-6 hours of playtime on a single charge.

  • Open case design may lead to earbuds falling out or collecting lint.
  • Sound quality is described as somewhat flat, lacking detail and depth.
  • Not suitable for running or high-intensity activities due to loose fit.
  • No app support for customization or firmware updates.

Comparisons (according to reviewers)

  • The Moondrop Space Travel offers better sound quality, noise cancellation, and app support, but the Block is more comfortable for some.

Takeaway: The Moondrop Block is a comfortable and affordable earbud that is good for casual listening and those who prefer a non-invasive fit. It's a simple and convenient option if you value comfort and portability over high-end sound quality and features.
