Gemini II

I use my Devialet Gemini 2's the most... But for good sound and overall functionality (calls/anc), I use my AZ100's.. Gonna order the Nobel Fokus Rex5's here soon... FYI, don't waste your money on the Pi8's. I'm highly disappointed in them...

Of the ones listed, the Denon Perl Pro is the best... I own the AZ-100's and the Perl Pro... The AZ-100 is better call quality though... That being said... If your budget is $500, Devialet Gemini 2's... I use my Gem2's more than any other of my buds. I could also suggest Noble Audio Fokus Rex5's, $449... They sound amazing, but not the best for rock/metal music.

BEST sounding, are Nobel Audio Fokus Rex5 or Devialet Gemini 2... I also have the Status Audio Between 3ANC, Denon Perl Pro, Technics AZ100, and B&W Pi8... All of those are really great choices as well.

I absolutly love mine. They sound amazing and have been flawless. I prefer the Devialet over my Noble Rex5's...

Right now, the 3 I use the most are Status Audio Pro X, Devialet Gemini 2, and Technics AZ100's.

For me, I have found that buds with decent ANC vastly improve simply by changing out the ear tips. The Technics AZ100 has decent ANC right out of the box. I swapped the stock tips with Azla SednaEarfit Max tips and made a huge improvement in ANC performance. The AZ100 also has outstanding call quality. To me, the sound quality is pretty goid as well... I own buds with better sound quality, Devialet Gemini 2's... The Gems also have good ANC but are considerably more expensive.

Of the ones you listed, the Devialet Gemini 2 would best suit your needs. The anc is pretty good and sound awesome.

Lead me higher than that... To Devialet Gemini 2... Then to Noble Fokus Rex5... Then to Noble Fokus Prestige Encore... I just can't justify the B&O Grace though...

Status Audio Pro X are great for bass, better than my Gemini 2's or Rex5's.

Noble makes awesome earbuds. I have both the Rex5 and Prestige Encore. If your husband listens to alot of hard rock, metal, or hip-hop I would recommend the Rex5. The Rex5 is a little better tuned for music with heavier bass. The Encore is better for pop, country, classical as it has better, more open, highs. Noble focuses on sound quality more than the other features. Their ANC is ok.. Call quality is decent. Battery life isn't too bad. You may want to also look at the Status Audio Pro X, it does very well in pretty much all genres. It has a really good ANC, but the battery life could be better. My last suggestion is the Devialet Gemini 2. Sounds great in all genres, good battery life good ANC, pretty good call quality.

Yes, but they are more expensive... The Noble Fokus Rex5 is comparable and the Noble Fokus Prestige Encore which cost about twice the Status Pro X. Devialet Gemini 2 is also another good option. My top 5 are: #1 - Noble Fokus Prestige #2 - Status Pro X #3 - Noble Fokus Rex5 #4 - Devialet Gemini 2 #5 - Bowers & Wilkins Pi8 I personally own and use all of these. I also own the Status Between 3ANC, Technics AZ100, Denon Perl Pro, and EarFun Air Pro 4+.

The Devialet sound really good and are very comfortable. The Noble buds are excellent, the main difference is in the tuning of the buds, I prefer the Encore. To me, the Rex5's sound cold and analytical. The shape of the Rex5 also don't fit me as well as the Pro X and Encore.

I don't ever recall them doing that... To be honest, I don't recall having a single issue out of them.. I use them witha Samsung S24 Ultra and my Samsung Tab S8+. The only thing I wish they would improve is on the multi-point... I will have them connect to both my phone and tablet, walk away and they disconnect from my tablet. Then, when I walk back to my tablet, I wish they would automatically reconnect.

The first thing to keep in mind is that features like anc, ldac, and multipoint all continuosly use battery. So, if you disable the features you don't really need, it will extend you battery life, on any earbud. My first choice would be the Status Between 3ANC, currently on sale for $125. Second choice would have to be the Denon Perl Pro, not sure of current pricing. Third would be the Technics AZ100. All of these will get you somewhere around the 6-7 hour mark on a single charge with anc and multi-point enabled. That being said, i would have to know exactly what do YOU call long battery life... If approximately 5 hours of music playback, with anc, multipoint, and ldac on, is long enough... Then I would definitly suggest the Status Pro X, currently priced at $249. Another option that I have started sharing is that if you are ok with wired iem's, $250 will get you a really good set. The upside to the iem, no batteries... So, they will outlast any tws.

I've had the Perl Pro for quite some time now and prefer the Status X over the Denon. Using a Samsung device, I set the phones internal eq, to a balanced setting, and then then simply tweak the Knowles Prederred setting in the Status Hub, which I have yet to find a way to completely bypass Samsung's eq. The Status Pro X has become my third most used set of buds, Noble Prestige Encore first and Devialet Gemini 2 is second.

The Gemini 2's are excellent, I love mine. The audio source plays a huge factor into their performance... Not to mention, finding the right ear tips, the stock tips are pretty crappy. They are currently #4 in my current rotation. The AZ100 are my current #9. #1) Noble Fokus Prestige Encore #2) Status Audio Pro X #3) Noble Fokus Rex5 #4) Devialet Gemini 2 #5) Denon Perl Pro #6) B&W Pi8 #7) Status Between 3 ANC #8) Noble Fokus Triumph #9) Technics AZ100 #10) Jabra Elite 10 Gen2

Yes, it is a matter of preference... To me the Rex5 is an outstanding earbud with amazing detail... That being said, no matter how much I eq them, they sound cold and recessed when it comes to vocals, especially solo female vocals. I also find at times that the Rex5 can be too analytical and highlights many flaws in a track. For casual listening, it can detract from the joy of just simply listening to music... Don't get me wrong, I love my Rex5's, it is an amazing set of buds. When you get to that highend tier of earbuds, it does become a matter of personal preference.

The 2 I use the absolute most are the Status Pro X and the Devialet Gemini 2. They are great for all genres of music, the anc and call quality are very good.

Def no audiophile grade for audiophile listeners. Also every earbud you named would basically sound like shit anyway besides the Gemini which def sound better than these. These just have sharper parts because of the liquid. But airpods don't even sound as good as cheap wired air phone you get in the package Bose is just marketing an Sony is the only other one with decent sound maybe but it bass heavy. Nothing you named actually is like good quality enough to really compare great sound aside from Gemini. Thank you for aleast listing what you were comparing it to but again anything with airpods or bose isn't barely good sound quality an when you hear anything else you understand you are paying for marketing an the ecosystem they brag about which isn't really all that special

jazz ve soul dinliyorsan Technics senin için en uygun olanı, çünkü tiz ve midler çok belirgin ve önde tam klasik müzik, soul, blues, jazz dinleyicileri için. audio technica, yamaha gibi metalik bir ses imzası var. ben buradaki listeden gözü kapalı status audio alırdım. bu arada biri devialet gemini 2 için boş beleş bişeyler yazmış :) onunki şansızlık yada talihsizlik, çünkü gemini 2 de kullanıyorum harika kulaklıklar. 3 tane bluetooth kulaklığımı hiç bir şeye değişmem; noble rex 5, devialet gemini 2 ve status audio pro x. paranın alabileceği ve kulakların duyabileceği en iyi kablosuz in ear kulaklıklar..

Having a Sony WF-1000XM5, a Galaxy Buds 4 Pro and a Devialet Gemini II. Honestly, I love my Sony earbuds for study, work. But when it came to activities, running, workout, music, relax,... it appeared that the Devialet is too great. Last one is Galaxy Buds, kinda good sound, but it can't even fit in ear, always fall out when i'm using lol. So for your need, I would strongly recommend the Sony WF-1000XM5, don't even need to upgrade to 6 when the 5 is too good even with price or quality (battery, sound, ANC, feeling). Good luck brother!

The Gemini 2 are unfortunately not HiRes like the APP3. What is not the case of the XM6 or AZ100. It's really depending on what you want to get. With an iPhone, that doesn't matter because it hasn't hi-res codec like Android. The solution is to buy a dongle (qcc pro, fiio air link or fiio bt11)

It's my English which is not perfect, sorry. I am quite aware about the APP3. I am not audiophile but a melomania. And I have or had all tws you have (except APP3 and Rex 5). I respect your opinion about the Gemini 2. Status pro x or AZ100 are much better for me. Even if technically the Gemini 2 are really good. Audio remains subjective 😉

The Status has a quite large scene after EQ. I am not using the native EQ but wavelet via autoeq by importing my peq made with squiglink. That give you a big flexibility to get the signature you would like to have. I like analytical and neutral sound because that give you more flexibility to tune and tweak. I am in-between melomania and audiophile. I like W signatures with natural sound while having quite strong bass (but more kick than sub basses) and a very good separation between bass and medium (around 210 to 320hz). And therefore the codec is important for me to really notice these different details :-)
