Sony’s customizable EQ via its Headphone Connect app lets users tweak sound to their ears, as well as select from a variety of well-engineered presets tailored to complement different music genres. The dual dynamic 6mm drivers fitted inside the earbuds produce full-bodied sound, and the 3D audio format makes music and movies sound more realistic. Sony’s WF-1000XM4 are priced at $279, £199, AU$348 (although they can regularly be found discounted to around $199 at several online retailers), and deliver a more natural and refined listening experience using its own 360 Reality Audio. Personalized spatial audio is awesome, and I regularly use it when listening to Dolby Atmos-compatible tracks with my AirPods Pro.

AptX Adaptive dynamically scales the bitrate to increase streaming quality on hi-res music services. There’s an equalizer with six effective presets, plus adaptive settings like Sound Check and Sound Zone that tailor audio to your hearing and automatically adjust the EQ to your location.

They're an all-around beauty, with everything that made the over-ear Momentum 4 noise-cancelling headphones a critical success carried over to these sleek-looking buds. The Momentum True Wireless 3 earbuds launched at a similar price to the AirPods Pro 2 ($249 / £219 / AU$399), and can also currently be found discounted to $199 at Amazon. If you don’t like the default EQ or presets, there’s an option to create a sound profile by playing with the seven-band EQ. You’re left to trust Campfire Audio’s sonic judgement, which is pretty spot on. The Orbit’s sound profile gives a default EQ and 7 presets, but they're difficult to identify since they're not named and they don't show the frequency curve. They handle minimal bass line with aplomb to sound more vibrant, while smaller details, like the feel more prominent and everything sounds crisp and transparent no matter what you're listening to. The acoustic chamber and drivers give these buds a wide and impactful soundstage that lays out instruments and vocals precisely for a depth-filled listening experience. When it comes to sound quality, Campfire Audio knocked it out of the park. There's no active noise cancelling here, but the audio spec sheet runs to custom 10mm dynamic drivers, liquid crystal polymer (LCP) diaphragms, and Bluetooth 5.2 with aptX codec elevates sound across all media platforms. The Orbit will satisfy the most audio-driven music lover who cares little for extras.
