Jaybird X3 wireless in-ears - make them sound better...

2019-03-06
hi everyone and welcome yeah although I did want to leave any further in yes anymore I think I'm done with this topic without the most important ones the great sounding moans 90 95 % are crap anyhow although people don't seem to realize this they buy this overpriced crap anyhow the market is flooded with this junk and any you in here again get some hype around it so I cannot quite understand it it's all to me also recording them offering your valid sound samples is quite a hassle it takes lots of time and I'm not hundred percent satisfied with the results it's probably the system here which is not good enough I would need something better more expensive which I cannot afford also in reading through some comments with people complaining that I bash is something hideous why they think they sound great so my gear is 14 my ears are faulty or and biased or whatever yeah I'm a little bit bored with this topic that I wanted to stop but I think this particular in here that jaybird x3 needs some attention I think some of you mentioned it in some comments I never really considered it because any in here I bought based on recommendations from you was just junk except some particular models but most of these and they just don't sound good we can as if from Sennheiser from Gaia dynamic the momentum through Wireless yes this doesn't sound good maybe you cannot find the same level but people obviously don't care about Peaks if it's closer to the Hammond response target maybe they don't hear it maybe I'm too sensitive I'm not quite sure but yeah I think we cannot really find this this this equal level and still I wanted to cover this because it was brought to my attention by Yuri I saw a review on head file that he made on the Sony MH 755 a deep analyzes also suggesting some mods some equalizing to bring it in closer to the harmony response target which is I think an important basis I mean it's maybe to paste heavy is maybe to 12 a V or whatever but the general curve the response that you should get with this 3 kilohertz beacon song without any additional strange stuff I think a basis which should be worked on and many years for many tunings simply ignore this they had a flat response at the eardrum which was just here it's not how in India our headphone should sound so I commented on his review I mean he has a deep knowledge not only about in ears also about measurements ends on his own and he suggested me to try some wireless ones and one of them being some jaybird models also from Gibran there is the X 2 X 3 X 4 the newest one they all sound model is the same also their freedom model the freedom to not it's more bass-heavy from what I've seen you can also check out the measurements from ratings should see if they sound or look the same also some some sports model but I think that X 3 X 4 are the top models they also have a HC Bluetooth encoding which improves sound quality the others may produce group of artifacts and although it's not a true wireless small we can see there is a wire in between I think it's quite nice so you wear it like this you see the remote is usually at the right side and they also come with these ear hooks or whatever that are like - they are meant to be held better inside but my case they don't work they pull the tip out instead of fixing it somehow so I am Not sure maybe I'm doing something wrong but without these I can get the tip more or less stable charging is done by this strange docking station or whatever so it goes like this then to USB unfortunately it would be it it would have been nice if it had a normal micro USB connector or something but you you need to carry around this this part thing thingie here inside the box are let's have a look not easy to open so you have this this ouchie here some additional tips also calm please and three pairs of these ear hooks different sized ones what else nothing part and there is also a way put this away and on my way is like this so behind your neck but you can also wear them the other way around so above your ears but you can see the the cable is so stiff it won't stay above your ear anyhow there is some some clip so you can clip it together here maybe and then it should fix it to your head I find it a little bit uncomfortable I also prefer it over the head over the ear but like this so below my neck so I don't need any additional still you can see it doesn't hold here so you get less cable noise microphonic sore whatever and this fixes it a little bit I can fix it - no but there is a nice feature you get an app you can swipe left and right channel depending on how you wear them which is of course nice and it comes with a really extensive parametric equalizer quite unique I've never experienced something like this so it says the settings into the in-ear and I think you need it because with the stock settings and with the stock tips doesn't sound good first maybe let's turn it on you get some voice prompts and melodies can be annoying a little bit power on haven't connected fully charged I mean I turn it on and then I put it inside my head the only annoying thing is when I reduce volume to a minimum you get a loud beep so not that great and before talking about the sounds maybe I would like to show you some measurements so this is with the original stock tips for a left hand right and you can see there is some slight weirdness here especially this deep the left one has it at 1.7 kilo Hertz maybe the right one has it at 2.2 peanuts I'm really not true where this deep comes from if it's a measuring error of this year's system here because I haven't seen them that pronounced in any other measurements neither from URI know from ratings but you also see this huge peak here at 7 8 kilohertz mmm so they sound just crappy also too much base if you after hamon response target so I will simply let's look at just the left one I'm really not quite sure where this strange deep I don't hear it that a deep is not as pronounced or it not as here above as a peak so usually when you get some deep with speakers and you want to equalize it you will let the deep but rather equalize the pigs away so this is original tips so let's try other tips you can see the tip here has a very small opening I'm not sure if you can see this and this is what causes this resonance look here I have another tip way bigger you remember we had the same problem with the with the tribute x1 Wireless it needs simply a different tip to sun-god because otherwise the treble changes in this case we get this peak you can see like this also it's it's exposed this driver unit or the mesh also fits fits nicely stays inside not that well so after some time it it falls out and with this tip the sound looks like that you see the the peak went away it shifted towards 11 kilohertz already sounds way better although treble is slightly too pronounced it comes although also with this complex but the complex are again covering this nozzle too much nozzle muzzle too much so they reduce travel too much here I have accompli it looks as if it was cut by our this is from the one more triple driver you can see it's small is the same like like the other tip that I had just that it's for me it tastes better inside isolates nicer and smoothness travel even more so how does it look with this with this complete tip here okay see not much difference just travel gets reduced slightly but with this response you can work way better with the equalizer and the equalizer is really really extensive it's a five band parametric equalizer so you can define the game frequency so you can move them freely you can see they have no no fixed band or whatever and you can also define the Q factor so how how narrow or how broad it is you can really do too heavy stuff here nice thing is it works sometimes there is some slight delay so also when switching between one setting and the other also great this you have some history so you can switch through all settings that you did which is really really unique and you can save the setting publish it online there are tons of different I checked some but they are mostly just increase based it's already quite a base area in here and but I think with V with this tool you can bring it to some really yeah really high-level so I will show you my neutralizing look first I will show you the Sony image one response all uncompensated so let's put away the other ones just leave the accomplice and this one image one and you can see they are quite close except this is accurate 1.7 kilo at the peak at 2.8 or whatever is a little bit more pronounced than treble in the area of 4 5 6 and kilohertz is a little bit lower on the ex crib so this is my equalizer setting you can see i reduced bass i reduced also this area around to 3 kilo hertz boost the treble boost it up or treble my EQ setting looks like this let me see and yeah I think it sounds really nice and I would like to show you I will put it inside here with the only tips first and I will simply switch between the tips first you will hear the original tips then the the alternative ones do you see with the bigger opening I'm not quite sure where they are from which which in here I have another one which also works look they look more less like the comp list here the same just that it's silicon but these silicon tips don't stay that instead well inside like the completes the companies started to extend so I prefer them with the companies and this equalizer preset so first we will hear of course the original track analog from so Poisson process fusion it's a nice repeating pattern so we can hear the changes nice nicely you will hear the the original tips then the alternative ones then the comp list and then I will start to switch between different EQ settings not all are mine also some other ones so that you can hear what kind of sound changes you can achieve I mean I didn't want to use these extreme ones which boost bass to the extreme there is one which is called I think heavy metal - just bass yeah I'm not how someone can listen to this and later on will maybe compare it to something else so let's have a listen I think you'd hear in this case the choice of the right tip makes a huge difference the original tips are just horrible I'm not sure why they included them they need some completely different tips like this here with this it always sounds way nicer and then you simply find you under sound a little bit yeah I'm not sure if I covered everything but let's compare it against some other in here not quite sure I mean these recordings should give you just an idea about the sound you know you're here it sounds okay it doesn't sound off in any way now with the comp lists and equalizer that I applied here but you cannot hear the really nuances so it's simply impossible because every in-ear react somehow differently this you can Ollie is very short so it doesn't have the impedance of a human ear therefore I am NOT a satisfied but to conclude all this I'm not sure it's compared against the Sony image one maybe which is a nicely tuned one or against the moon drop tennis pro which costs more is not wireless also a little bit more cumbersome maybe to wear so let's compare it to the moon drop tennis pro although don't take the sound samples absolutely rather relatively to each other but at the end you can tell me my 10 your opinion about it so let's have a listen again is it just a treat my loving inside my fantasies call to me you worries my thoughts I never stray from the heart of you am i searching you I wanna feel every part of these I must confess I am positively surprised and quite impressed with them they offer you lots of tuning options and with the right tips they only sound great it's a pity that they are screwed up by this original tips here also the measurements from ratings show this peak they should have maybe measured them with the companies but the original companies are not that great either because they reduce travel too much so I had a cut in behalf I didn't try it so I used this foam is here from the triple driver there are also different material little bit harder it's it's more dense maybe this foam and usually you don't need to squeeze them just put them inside your year and they already stay quite nicely so I really like them with these tips and some additional tuning boosting treble slightly taste sound really amazing I prefer them over most other wired in years because it because they are wireless so I can go out I could do some some gardening or whatever isolate nicely and if you want boost base if you don't want base that much we'd use it I tried to rather keep it closer to the Sony image one response except bass but you could hear with the there is some still with the mids could be maybe reduced slightly but the potential is definitely there and I'm surprised that this in here doesn't get more attention I mean I saw some reviews or I didn't watch them or didn't read them but many people seem to be satisfied with them I'm quite impressed really impressed and thanks to Yuri to bringing them into my attention because because yeah I love them the only thing is that they are not that comfortable he they remind me of the Ultimate Ears triple 510 which also was very cumbersome toe to wear it rather sticks out they are rather huge maybe the the x4 easily be better it has some redesign I think but it's ok if I have this complex here put them nicely inside they also stay inside the remote yes between because when I let me try like this when I have to make this the remote is somewhere behind my ear yeah you can switch tracks by keeping plus or minus pressed mmm which also I mean during running you can so it's a little bit weird I probably wouldn't use them for running they are sweat proof the x4 is I think even completely waterproof not quite sure about this but I thought quite understand these hooks here what how they should work I mean they maybe fix them but at the same time they pull them out so I never get as a real seal a good seal yeah I think this was it for the j-bird X 3 X 4 X 2 sounds awesome all is the same I think they all are supported by the by the same app let me see we have the run or run XT the perhaps Tara ha Tara Tara ran sounds a bit Arabic we have the Tara Pro and the freedom tool the freedom one is not supported look yeah it is but has different design maybe it's even more comfortable to wear I should try maybe another one the J bit x4 looks a bit different these ear hooks look softer somehow and I think it's definitely worth trying out but you have to experiment with tips and like I said before a 30 40 % of the sound based on the tips on the right tips and how they how they work together with your ear geometry so I'm done with the topic in ears headphones and yeah I think we found some models that are really great forget the hype around many others Sennheiser momentum true eyeless or whatever forget it forget the pew play e8 2.0 overhyped by so many of Flossie kata said it's the best wireless in I mean either he's deaf or he only listens to bass or whatever I'm not sure how angry I cannot understand all this therefore for me the topic is closed we have I recommended some nice in years I will still expect the automatic er tool to arrive but it will I think it will it will be shipped in March so I will get at the end of March and then I might do another review on this maybe without samples just giving you my thoughts on the it tool versus they are two versus the ER for but this sounds really nice I'm quite impressed and I listen to them for hours I think the battery life estate is claimed with eight hours I think it's ok really really a nice one for one hundred hundred dollars or something but I might try the other ones too the freedom the first one is also I think a a C decoding because if it just falls back to SBC you will probably hear some compression artifacts also mentioned by Yuri she knows them all but I got the x3 somehow as it seemed the most normal the most all-around the one but now I'm looking at all the others here in the app I might maybe try another one the first freedom the x4 is a little bit more expensive not quite sure so yeah I hope this was helpful a bit and yeah see you in another video maybe but probably not with in ears or headphones but something else yeah thanks all for watching and see you then you
