Review on Philips H9505 Hybrid ANC Over Ear Wireless Bluetooth Headphones 🎧 with Comfort Fit, 27 Hours Playtime, Dual Device Connect, Alexa Built-in by Walter Devarakonda

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Depends on what you get them for.

Philip's Fidelio X3OK. I did a lot of research before I bought the headphones. I specifically wanted an "out of park" volume with a clear sound. They're just NOT loud enough. In fact, my $79 monster headphones that I bought 8 years ago are louder than these (yes, they still work). I love jamming so much that all I want to do is listen to the music. In other words, my kids would have to PUSH my bedroom door in to hear it knock. In any case. I gave these headphones 4 stars but I didn't want to give a low rating. BUT, if you want to deaden the volume in the park (e.g. rip them off your head loudly) they are NOT for you. even when approaching philips customer service even he said they wouldn't turn up the volume (it's like it's limited to a certain level. i tried several devices and they all had the same volume limit). Clear quality is excellent. no distortion BUT it's just a comfortable volume. So if you are looking for them, they will definitely serve your purpose. But for me. no I want awkward volume with the ability to control the volume. I want a sound so loud it blows it out of the sky. 300 dollars. So I bought a pair of 200 headphones and they were loud enough too. Did some more research. Looks like the headphones are now adjustable depending on how loud they can be out of the box. So to get the ultimate volume AND true headphone capability, there are headphone amps you can buy from Revain. I spent $26 on one and wow, now I'm talking about it. And still no distortion. The difference is incredible with the amp (it's quite small). So if you're looking for something more than comfy, get a headphone amp (you can still use your actual device's volume button to control up and down). )
