After the review from MKBHD, I was kind of left baffled - as there was a lot of information left out! However, this review from you guys is literally amazing - much more in-depth and informational! Keep up the great work :-)!

I’ve seen several reviews on this today. This one by far is the best. Well done mate!

A review that actually reviews the product and gives you a sense of living with it. Excellent work.

One of the most honest, non-sponsored videos I’ve seen on this product today

Was looking forward to this! So many reviews popped up today for these headphones

[AhmadIsHungry]

Very high quality and high effort review, great job guys!

Not being able to pair 2 sets of headphones to the Arc is a baffling decision I couldn't believe. That, among other things, is a dealbreaker for me. It even feels dishonest considering they try to sell these headphones in sets of 2, which I assumed was for the tv watching experience with your SO.

This video is one of the first things I’m listening to with my new Sonos ace headphones. I’m happy with them. I was looking forward to listening to records with them through my Sonos system. I would love to see this use added in the future.

Thanks for this review, I have the AirPod Max and I'm tired of waiting for USB-C support on these, and since I am full equipped by Sonos at home, I'm so glad to switch to these ACE. They are just perfect for my use and love the sound !

[anthonygomme]

The best review i've seen today. Well done guys.

Fabulous review! Way more informative and balanced compared to the nonsense from MKBHD. Nicely done!

[Amit_l]

Best review I’ve seen on these today. Great video.

I have the PX8 and Focal Bathys. I would be surprised if it beat either of them. Out of the two I have, I would always choose the PX8 with some tuning for bass using THX Spatial Audio or some capable EQ software or amp.

i think a direct sound comparison with the other headphones would've given us viewers a better understanding of how they differ in terms of sound quality from the rest

[SteadyAscension]

Excellent review
You actually covered a lot more than other reviewers

[Tony_RCA]

super complete tests! I'm having ACE on my ears and all your opinions fit mine personal ones. Thanks

[johnfanning]

The in-depth and thorough review I’ve been waiting for

[aminosmz]

I’ve tested & owned all the headphones you mentioned except the Sonos, when you do an ANC test, always make sure to let the headphones properly adjust the amount of anti noise by waiting few seconds before measuring, take the Bose for exemple, there miles difference you notice just by letting it few more seconds, the ANC becomes way more effective and that’s the case for the rest of them but in less pronounced way, please take this into account for future tests & thank you for the overall exhaustive review.

Why is your studio on a boat heading out to sea in heavy weather? Made me feel slightly queasy. But great review! I love the response from Sonos, which does explain the reasons for the lack of full integration - which us long standing Sonos users (think ZP100 & Sonos Remote) were hoping for. Hope you get back to dry land soon. Thanks again for a great review!
