Nothing x KEF - Headphone (1)

Very much agree. At first I was put off, especially in the vocals. But then I compared them to quiet comfort and a few others, and really say with the Eq and these are lovely. Not too of the line, but not trying to be. Really dig them. How would you compare them to momentum 4? Thinking about those as well

So you don't want something too expensive as they could easily get damaged but something with good quality audio behind it, id have to recommend the Nothing Headphones 1, dust protected which is helpful for workspace and have great quality for the price

Nothing ear. Best ones by a mile

After I saw they work with KEF I was so excited because I have KEF SPEAKERS and I love them but after listening to them I got so disappointed

For my ears to plain nothing special to me

I use Apple Earpods when I’m lazy and away from my desk with my PO-33, KOII and OP-1 Field. Beyerdynamic 770 when I’m at my desk and Nothing Headphone (1) when I’m in the mood for great design.

FYI Just got the Nothing Headphones for the same reasons, but as much as I wanted them to work for me, the headband and clamping force is too tight for some people, including me. Having constant pain where the headband meets the top of my head. I’m returning them today.

Do it, I have a pair since release and they’re just absolutely rock solid. As good as the day they were new

I'm waiting for a potential momentum 5 early next year. I really dislike the XM6 soundwise cuz of bad soundstage and pretty muddy and poor soundquality without custom EQ at least. Also the bad comfort and honestly pretty cheap quality plasic build don't match the price. And I can highly recommend against the nothing headphone. Bought them a week ago and mine were defective and instantly got ruined by a softwareupdate. As cool as they look, the nothing headphones are imo the typical 1st gen product where you are gambling if it won't randomly die out of nowhere... I made a post bout them recently if you want to check it out. But I'm really negatively biased against nothing cuz of that cuz they had the most disgusting sound I've ever heard... But going back to the momentum 4, the ANC is just terrible and transparency also aint really it. They do soundstage, bass control and rumble better than anyone else at thier price and battery life is best in class but that's really all they can do. Bose has even worst sound but comfort is nice and ANC decent and B&W I havent used enough to say anything except a short test listening where I preferred the sennheiser by far. Again. Sennheiser clears everything with soundquality and for me at least that's what I value the most.

'Nothing ear' are great I'm on my second pair (old ones were perfect I just lost them lol) anywhere from £80-£100 and don't fall out/amazing quality for the price, anc is on the good side but not the best out there.

The deal breaker for me is not having easily removable fabric cushions. Was looking forward to these and even like the final design, but non-replaceable PU makes them seem disposable.
