Awesome! I really needed a review of the CX!!

[iampaulpoetry]

Really nice video. YouTube suggested it to me after I’d purchased the Cambridge buds, but had I seen this first, I would have gone the same way. Very thorough, knowledgeable, all bases covered, and reviewer’s personality goes a long way. Cheers 🍻👍🏻

Cambridge Audio Melomania 1+ now £49.99 on UK website. Superb!!

Love your reviews.
I use the Cambridge Melomania 1+. Mids are lovely, great for complex music and for vocals these are great. These are so pocketable too. I use comply tips for a perfect fit. But have had problems like you with the tips staying in the case occasionally. I love the Cambridge buttons control. And these are at a great price.
Also, these stay in my ears for more active exercise and doing yoga, including upside down. And I don't worry about these when it's raining.
I was surprised by the call quality, it's good- and if you rotate them so the microphone hole points down I'm sure it sounds better (might be wishful thinking). I use these with my laptop as well.

The Melomania 1+ is now on general sale in the UK for £39.99!! Great value. The only thing I have against them is I've found them a little tricky to fit as I have a small ear canal, but I've ordered some different foam ear tips to hopefully improve this. Great value for money indeed

Compared to the Melomania 1 I got, this 1+ mic is much better with the background noise but also our voice is also suppressed a little bit. For me, I would go with Melomania 1+ in this price point, they're on sale for $99 at the moment.

Genuinely witty! Thoroughly enjoyed the scripted convo.

[TeddieBean]

Great informative review and first vid if yours I've seen! Loving the deadpan acerbic wit added in throughout 😂 also couldn't help but think you were going to slip up and say test test testicle 123 when you slipped up on the call testing 🤣😂🤣🥴

From where did you guys get the testing phrase of Ice Ice Icicle - Pop Pop Popsicle and Test Test - :D :D

[ceeluh]

Tried them both, cambridge... To me... Are just better. I also own the Cambridge touch and it is a step up for sure

[imwhatsnew]

Massive attack ..testing bass response since 1988... 😀

[disaffected_malcontent]

5:40 did anyone else think he was going to say "test test testicle"?

[gwine]

I love the "British sound". I have Arcam, units for my music system, and love them. So, of course, I went with the 1+s.

I have both the Melomania 1 and the Melomania Touch and they are the best earbuds I have, together with the Jabra 75. Excellent review.

[banestock]

When are you guys reviewing the nothing ear 1s?

[theSWBFman]

How are these compared to the neobuds pro?

[miguellazaro]

How do these compare against edifier neobuds pro?

[markpbowen]

First time watching one of your videos. I am subbing just for popsicle….ice sickle….testing line 😂😂😂amazing

I have the melomania originals. To me they are better than the apple AirPods for sound. That is what is top of my priorities.

Just upgrading now to the melomania touch not the 1+ as I prefer the design. For me the Cambridge sound is one that I love and I did use Sens over ears when dj’ing. I look forward to more videos.

Hope you can review CX plus. Was curious about the ANC and if microphone is approved.
