Crossfade 2 Wireless Codex Edition

The bluetooth sound quality exceeded all of my expectations. Lows, mids, and highs all sound clear and crisp. The headphones are very comfortable and durable. The price may be high but you absolutely get your money's worth with this pair.The build quality is second to none. The materials used feel great and should last for a very long time. The included cables are solid and work well. I really appreciate the hard carrying case that fits the headphones themselves as well as the charging cable and audio cable in case you run out of battery.This is my second pair of V-Moda headphones and will not be my last. If you have a device that utilizes the aptX codec (not Apple) you are in for a great wireless listening experience (wired is good too).

I have been a fan of VMODA headphones for many, many years now. Chose this brand over Beats as I always found the sound quality an upgrade. This set is no exception to that rule, I have been contemplating and nervous about the right set of wireless headphones as the sound quality usually lacks the deep bass and sound quality I require for my listening. This is an ABSOLUTE must buy, the bass deep and rich without the tin can sound quality of most wireless devices. Headphones very snug and totally noise cancelling, just how I like it. The comments referring to needing the XL cups may be true for some however the standard cups work great for me so far in a 3hr listening window. The price..........if you want quality, you don't sacrifice price, if you do you end up with trash that you will ultimately not be happy with. That being said, as a long time consumer of this brand it would be nice to get some kind of perks, a set of free or reduced custom plates or something.

Style, sound, quality, V-Moda has it all. I have been using their headphones for the past 6 years, and I have held off on going Bluetooth just because of pricing. I decided to cave and go for the Crossfade 2 and it was a well-made decision. After checking out the top-of-the-line Bose and Sony models in store, I decided to check what V-Moda had before making the decision.Once they arrived, I could tell I made the right decision. Without even holding them I could tell that they have a much stronger durability than either of those other two brands, which I need because I'm in the gym almost daily. They're also a beautiful set of headphones, and I can confidently say that I will be a customer of theirs for life.

If you like your music loud all the time and bass heavy then maybe you'll love these. However, if you ever want to listen to music quietly... Well look elsewhere. There is no way to make these headphone quieter than what I would consider barely below a maximum comfort level. I don't know about you but I value my hearing too much to listen at extreme volumes.I do feel like these headphones did a good job with sound retention and despite not being "noise cancelling" they do a good job of keeping outside noise out. They also have excellent battery life and charge very quickly. They also seem very sturdy (cannot attest to longevity because I returned them after a week) and the case they came with was awesome.However, as someone who wears glasses I found them uncomfortable to wear for more than 1 hour at a time. I also felt like if my ears were much larger (I would consider my ear average to small size) then my ears would NOT have fit comfortably inside the cups. So if you wear glasses or have large ears, I would definitely avoid these if you plan to listen for long periods of time. Maybe the softer pads that V-Moda sells would fix the comfort issues, but considering the issues I also had with the volume level and bass, I chose to return them. Too bad. I really wanted to love them.

This full rich sound is what I crave. And with its copper touches its so pretty (wish they had done a white copper version though). I went through Senn, Shure, Marshall and Bose before landing happily on these. Did not like the cost but it is what it is.BASS, plenty. I had to reduce my EQ's low setting else I'd have bad headaches within 2 tunes.TREBLE, from tenor/soprano voices and Meyer's Fender Strat and flutes, sharp and crisp like I love them.The reasons for knocking off a star, though I hate to are:■■ Worst buttons on any headset ever in my 40 years of buying headsets! I mean drugstore $14 ones have better. These are hard plastic. Located badly at the top of the ear cup. I have to take the set off to get at the multi function center button. And there's no rewind/ffwd! At $350, are they kidding me? Solid gold accessiries available for 600 and buttons feel like they are from a cheap toy. The kind in the trash by Dec 26. AWWWFUL VModa.■■ Too much tension. Hurts the jaw and ear.■■ No Bluetooth during charging. No audble batt check feature until a blast of notes when unit is nearly out of power.The matte case shows oil stains. So if you have on moisturizer you'll have to wipe it off.If you need noise cancelling these have little.See pics of my fav PowerAmp app EQ setting for these.
