"For gaming the Tea Pros so far are a 10/10, I play mostly Hunt: Showdown and the additional separation, staging, and tighter but punchy bass were all noticeably better for my ears."
"The best is hearing directly via TV apps such as Disney+, Netflix, Prime and Kayo. The surround, smooth deep bass and clarity with the upfiring speakers on both the bar and rear speakers is 'chef kiss'."
"I don’t listen to EDM, but I can say that Karma (Electric Fountain) from the Tekken 6 OST sounds awesome. The bass rumble feels like it’s always present in the space when the mid-bass punch hits. Meanwhile, the details in the upper-mids and treble are clear but never sounding harsh or fatiguing"

"Super comfortable resin shell, has shorter nozzle so no discomfort with insertion for me, YMMV. ... Just prefer the tuning & fit/design of the InAwaken, it can be used all day with no problems physically or musically. ... I can’t speak for you but had zero comfort issues (my ears are small/medium in width). The inner shell is very smooth with no bumpy nodules. Has the best fit of my x4 current iem’s."
"The fit is incredible, light, shorter nozzle, so sits great in-ear/canal area isn irritated. ... Can wear all day with zero fatigue."
"Hours and hours of usage everyday and no headaches, no sweat ... I prefer using IE-300 for longer sessions out of them all."

"both the earbuds and case are entirely waterproof. They've been worn in the shower and heavy rain, dropped in puddles, even gone through the washer."
"It took over 5 years for one of the buds to give out and stop charging, and I still happily use the other bud all night every night. ... Absolute beasts"
"and in the shower too and theyre waterproofed really well! ... dropped them in a tub of water by accident and they’re just fine."

"I had the same problem and returned them."
"I don't find them comfortable at all, though. Way too big for my ears."
"if you sweat a lot these aren’t the earbuds to buy. ... Sweat will change the settings and skip songs and switch modes, and they will fall out of your ears. ... Bose QC are not for those who sweat a lot by the way. They’ll fall out of your ear and the modes will switch and songs get skipped."

"No it doesnt. it rolls of massively starting 65hz. ... at 60hz, you're already -10 db, which makes itvery muted compared to the rest. ... Anything under will be almost inexistant to human ears"
"I don't like the Mays at all... ... the Mays sound really muddy to me compared to my other 2 sets."
"I would not recommend May, it's playing in lower league than EW300 or Explorers. ... May is only good if you are not planing to move forward in hobby and you just want to play something inside your ears ... but if I would prefer comfort more than sound I would just buy Airpods 2 or other TWS."

"these didn’t last me more than two months before messing up from sweat!"
"Killed two pairs of supposedly waterproof jaybirds. ... They last awhile but sweat is undefeated when it comes to electronics."
"I've killed too many of them with sweat ... it'd be cool if they didn't break instead."

"The Peak 3s are going through some connection issues when fun and it ’s driving me absolutely bananas. The music will play just fine, but it keeps dropping connection to a point that I’d rather just run without music if I have those with me."

"The JBL endurance peak are also not good for running but not because of the hook but because they are unable to handle sweat. ... Once i sweat, trouble starts with bass disappearing from the left earbud and then the volume lowers itself on the left earbud such that i now get imbalanced sound. ... Then later on, the other earbud also lowers it's volume and loses the bass. ... They later return to their original sound once im done running and they have dried up. ... For this reason, i retired them from running and i now use them like a normal non sport earbuds."
Same, I have a pair of Endurance 3 that I have specifically for the gym, was able to get them through the employee rewards program at work. Only time they fall out is if I’m using the decline bench.
r/workout • What headphones do you wear to the gym? ->The Tour 3, really? Im gearing more towards the Endurance Peak 3, personally. Although, it may be just because i prefer the secure feel of the earhooks...
r/Earbuds • What is currently the best “all-rounder” premium earbud under $300USD? ->Ive got the JBL endurance peak 3. They stay in well and have pretty good sound quality. Now Im a proponent of running without music though, it's the only time of the day when I don't have to be connected to a device and can just be alone with my thoughts
r/beginnerrunning • The best running headphones that you'd say it's really good? ->Jbl endurance peak 3. Case closed.
r/Earbuds • Earbuds Recommendation Solely for Sound Quality ->You mentioned you are a runner. Im also a runner and i have some experience to share too. I just took a look at those Jabras. I think those would not stay in my ears during a run. Once i begin sweating, the sweat would lubricate them and they probably would fall off. I had bought a pair of soundcore sport x20 to use for my runs. They were nice and had consistent sound throughout my running but sweat would lubricate them and make them fall off. The hook they put on them is not sturdy enough. They should have retained the hook they had on the soundcore spirit x2. The JBL endurance peak are also not good for running but not because of the hook but because they are unable to handle sweat. Once i sweat, trouble starts with bass disappearing from the left earbud and then the volume lowers itself on the left earbud such that i now get imbalanced sound. Then later on, the other earbud also lowers it's volume and loses the bass. They later return to their original sound once im done running and they have dried up. For this reason, i retired them from running and i now use them like a normal non sport earbuds. That being said, i still love their sound especially the punchy bass. They beat even the soundcores. Anyways, I later resorted to using a cheap pair of chinese earbuds called Dacom athlete. They are the only ones i have had that do not fall off and their sound never changes even when i sweat. They also have a 20hour battery life.
r/Earbuds • Earbuds Recommendation Solely for Sound Quality ->I’m a runnner/lifter and work outside (physical job), these didn’t last me more than two months before messing up from sweat! Edit: they have nice speakers though
r/sanantonio • Runners, which headphones? ->It depends on what you’re looking for. My requirements were long battery life, good IP rating, at least reasonable sound quality, noise canceling, not bone conduction. There aren’t a whole lot of good options for these requirements. I had the jabra elite 8 active and they were superior in every way. It was such a shame jabra arent making them anymore. I’d recommend SoundCore Sport x20. For the price it’s pretty bog standard but has good IP rating. The bass was a little excessive but you can adjust EQ settings in the app. Also you need to be pretty deliberate when pressing the buttons. Also the ANC can be a bit patchy, especially around traffic. Another option which is popular but I don’t recommend is the JBL endurance peak 3. I kept having charging issues. Fortunately they have a 1yr factory warranty but after returning the second pair I didn’t keep buying them. Also because the buttons arent pressable (it’s touch only), when it’s raining water would activate the buttons against my rain jacket.
r/trailrunning • What are the best running headphones to use right now? Any suggestions pls? ->yo, any thoughts on JBL Tune Core and JBL Endurance Peak 3? I got both for free through work, and I LOVE them both. The Endurance Peak 3's have better bass than my Airpod Pro 2s
r/AppleMusic • Best headphones for casual use for Apple Music? ->JBL peak 3. They have ear hooks so they stay in place and they don’t have the charging/connectivity issues that the Powerbeats pro always have
r/workout • What headphones do you wear to the gym? ->Hard disagree. I have those currently for running, and they are ok. But there are way better sounding buds. Especially at OPs price point.
r/Earbuds • Earbuds Recommendation Solely for Sound Quality ->I’ll mention JBL Endurance Peak. They are true wireless and have the same ear hook system as the Powerbeats. I bought them specifically because they are waterproof, which is more than can be said for the Beats.
r/runninglifestyle • Best earphones for running? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
