    It seems that since the firmware update, the GamingHDR profile improved. Can you test that profile in the latest firmware? Thanks.

    Wish there were non-OLED options in the higher range of this list. I’m a bit paranoid about burn-in.

    I’m not sure if they have been degraded, but at times, they can be quite bad, because I think they are trying to adapt to the ammount of noise surrounding the person.

    Without the target curve in the graphs I find it very hard to see the changes in frequency response with ANC ON vs OFF.

    I’m actually surprised at this review. I recently bought these just to check them out and I find them bassier than I expected, they are not really neutral at all 🤔

    Btw, I listened to them with silicone tips. The foam was too big for me.

    You guys really should do a factory reset and re-measure them. These measurements are completely different from soundguys. (Which are much more in line with what I hear)

    Is there anyway I can access the 1.7 version of this review? (I know I can with the waybackmachine, but I don’t get the frequency response graph) Maybe it’s the frequency response target that you guys made with 1.8, but it does not allign at all with what I’m hearing.

    The Momentum 4 just got a new official app (Sennheiser Smart Control Plus) where you can fully turn the ANC off. With ANC off, the sound is quite different from ANC ON/Adaptive to my hears. Can you test frequency response with ANC OFF? Thanks :)

    Please test the frequency response with ANC OFF vs ON. It sounds bassier with it on, to me.

    Are you going to update the test to Methodology v1.8?

    Hello Metsuki, Here is the frequency response with ANC On/Off that we measured. David.

    Thank you!

    Could you compare the frequency response in ANC off vs On?

    Does the High Resolution Mode increase latency when compared to it’s “normal” mode?

    Will this review get updated with the Aptx Adptive latency results?

    When can we expect APTX Adaptive latency test results to be available on this review?

    I’m unable to find the 1006 firmware for download. Can you give us the link, OP?

    Thanks for bringing this to our attention. We just added it to our retest queue, so we’ll try to have a look at this ASAP. Once we do, we’ll update the review with our results and I’ll be sure to let you know!

    So, when will the retest occur?

    With this firmware, the sRGB clamp seems to be working correctly for me.

    I have this monitor and a colormeter. While the SRGB clamp wasn’t perfect, it was still vastly more accurate than custom. I tested with the latest firmware, btw.

    Or at the very least, test with the app’s EQ presets.
