Denon - PerL

After almost a week of using em; I’m sending em back, for the price the jbl tour 3 has waaaay more value, I got the denon perl on discount and on white as my one plus buds 3, I tried everything, different tips, removing the foam AND the filter, sound is good but volume in the jbl and op3p is way better, so as bass and articulation in the mids, I really wanted to keep this ones but anc as good as many say chaNtes the tonality no matter which setting I’m in, passive anc (just from the tips) is almost inexistent, the App eq is awful (hands down to jbl, their eq is outstanding) and the fact that even between little details in the codec selection they change sound quality (96/ 32 sounds awful, the best I got was from 96/24 on ldac and le codec which locks the device to one single device) all in all Im covered by the jbl and the op3p, I have my hopes high on the denon, and even though I tweaked a lot the eq on the jbl, the oneplus buds 3 pro still have better sub bass than both of em, such a shame one plus doesn’t use a higher quality codec for other phones than their own overall, I felt that the az100 hype is just that. Hype

Mine absolutely do not block out keyboards. But it certainly is functional.

Oh gotcha, yeah I agree with that. So that obviously means it depends on the type of music as well, but yeah if I have any music at a reasonable volume I won't hear anything.

switching between  Beyerdynamic Free Byrd Denon perl (regular not pro) Cambridge audio Melomania m100 - which I'm using most of the time lately 

I got some Denon pearls and they sound great. Stay in my ear when running and keep a lot of the noise out.

I love my Denon pearls. £73 on amazon. Bargain.

Denon PerL at woot right now for 39.99

Denon Perl / Perl Pro have the option to disable touch controls in the app - just set "do nothing" for all potential actions. AVIOT has a similar function. So does Samsung for the Buds series, and Sony for the WF series. Thinking about it now I'm not sure I've owned a pair of tws with touch controls from any major brand that didn't have a fairly straightforward way of disabling them.

The Bose QC Ultra buds were my number one for the gym until I tried the Denon Perl Pro with the wing tips. They sound better and they really lock into your ear. I use the Bose now for airplane travel.

I have an iPhone. I’ve been using the Denon PerL for a little more than a year 

I have no issues. They sound great, I haven't used the airpod pro, so I don't have comparisons with the airpod pro. But speaking generally, the ANC is good. The earbuds entirely block out sounds like keyboard typing and air-conditoner / heating units. I take the NYC subway, and the earbuds reduce the sound of the trains by a lot (I can still hear it, of course. But it's reduced). As for battery life - I use the Denon PerL (not the Denon PerL pro, which has a higher battery life). I put my Denon PerL's on around 7:20AM before I head out the door to work. I get the "battery low" prompt when the batteries reach 20%. That happens usually around 12:30PM, though it can vary and occur around 1PM too. I could push the battery to zero by going another hour or so, but I just reach for the charger at that point. So 5-6 hours battery on the Denon PerL

Mine blocks out any keyboard typing. If I just wear the earbuds with no music playing - I would be able to hear keyboard typing (so maybe that’s what you mean?) But if I play any music with the ANC, I don’t hear the keyboard at all.  I’ve used the Denon Perl’s on airplanes, and they block out the engine noise to a faint murmur

I’ve had the Denon Perl’s since January 2024 . I actually found the fit to be better with the larger wingtips included in the package. With the default wingtips, the right side always seemed to feel loose 

I have the Denon Perls. They do give a notification when your battery dips under 20%. The voice prompt says “Battery Low.” 

The best over 1k are the Geekfly L6, hands down best sound quality out of all the ones I've tested, Noble Rex5, Devailet Gemini ll's, PI8s, Denon Perl, Sony M5, MTW4, and supports all the hi resolution wireless codecs, if you own a late model flagship phone your already to go for best wireless audio sound. Warranty and build quality by Geekfly is top notch. There isn't any tws on the market compares to the L6s.

I have denon perl but would try svanar next
