  • Shure, headphones
Color: Black Style: Gen 2
Quality seems good sounds great. I wish the buttons were a little bit more tactile and easier to find other than that. Good purchase.

  • My Daily Driver
Color: Black Style: Gen 2
I am so glad I purchased this. The quality is super, they feel heavier than most headphones I owned. But the sound, oh God what a beautiful sound stage they produced. They are super comfortable, I wear them all day. Battery last a long time, at least more than my 8 hours shifts. Connects super quick. The only suggestion will be on the buttons, they are not on the best location on the headset. Also the app while works amazing, the part to listen to your local files feels like an after thought. They are on the mid range territory. Not necessarily a high end, but it does deliver on sound. You won't regret it ... show more

  • Well made, decent sound, great app for EQ etc, but the ear cups are small-fitting and hot
Color: Black Style: Gen 2
I wanted to love these headphones. I have one other pair of BT headphones, the Austrian Audio Hi-x25BT headphones, which are priced much lower than these Shure Aonic 50 Gen 2 headphones. The Shures have more BT protocols (compared to most headphones), they have lots of modern features, they have noise canceling, and they feel tougher and sturdier than most headphones I've owned. SOUND. The Shure Aonic 50 sound signature is very scooped in the mids, the bass is pulled back compared to most, and there's some odd brightness that sometimes is nice but often has been irritating or harsh depending on the album. And at first they sounded very muddy in the low end. It took me a while to get decent sound out of them. Here's what I did to get decent sound out of them. First of all, I wasn't able to EQ up the bass too much, it doesn't stand up well to more than a few dB. In the Shure PLAY app, I EQed the bass shelf up at 50 Hz by just +3.0 dB with a gradual slope of 1.9 oct. That seems to be the best I can do for balancing the weak bass without making everything muddy. Most importantly, the bass sounded weak at first due to what I assume to be a bad fit. After a day of use, the pads adjusted and they did fit better and sound tighter in the low end. The other thing that needed fixing was the scooped mids. I added a wide parametric EQ boost of +3.5 dB at 460 Hz, with a width of 1.7 oct. They could use more in the mids, honestly, but I'm trying to not push my luck and risk going too far. Lastly, they have a boosted sharpness from 4000 to 5000 Hz, so I had EQ that down with a -1.5 dB dip at 4500 Hz with a narrow bandwidth of 1.5 oct. Those three EQ adjustments have made them really well rounded. There are a few strange resonance issues in the highs (e.g. a track I heard with whistling suddenly got really sharp and irritating) but overall pretty good. Surprisingly, turning the ANC on and off doesn't change the sound much at all, if you're in a quiet room. So, that's really nice COMFORT. These headphones are small, hot, tight, and ill-fitting on my XL head. My old cheaper Austrian Audio Hi-X25bt headphones are FAR more comfortable than the Shures. The Shures don't extend far enough; they barely fit over my head when extended all the way. The cups are small; my ears don't fit inside the cups. My ears are touching the ear pads all around top bottom and back. Seriously, I feel like these headphones are crumpling my ears up in to little balls. And they're hot and sweaty feeling, too. I've worn them for 30 minutes just now, and my ears already feel hot. The Austrian Audio Hi-X25bt, by comparison, are light and cool and have lots of room inside. My wife has the Sennheiser Momentum 4 headphones, which in comparison have similarly small ear cups etc, similar to the Shures, though the Shures are heavier feeling and have a much stronger clamp force. When I try the Sennheisers, they also don't fit around my ears, but it doesn't seem as uncomfortable because they are light and sit happily on top of my ears. I can't stress enough how horrible the Shure Aonic 50 gen 2 fit is for folks with big ears. It's bad The Shures look and feel more modern and fashionable etc, compared to the Austrian Audio. I think they feel sturdier than the Sennheiser Momentum 4s as well, but then Sennheiser has a reputation for making lightweight headphones that last forever despite feeling "plasticky." These Shures are not plasticky, they are really sturdy. The cups are plastic but that's probably useful for acoustics and keeping the weight down. If you have small ears, strong air conditioning, and you like a bright scooped sound, these headphones are for you. And their features and the app etc are really well implemented. They just don't compare well to my older much cheaper bt headphones from Austrian Audio, and that means I regret purchasing them. ... show more

  • Good sound and features with average noise cancelation
Color: Black Style: Gen 2
What should you expect: - high quality sound to the point that your favorite songs start to sound disgustingly clear (which can be fixed with equalizer though) - not a very punchy bass (equalizer to help you here as well) - significant clamping force (I got used to it after some time) - not a "popular" brand, people don't know about Shure unless they are from sound industry - noise cancelation is just "ok", but personally I don't mind that a lot - you can connect it to your laptop/phone via usb type-c cable and that just works without additional setup - your voice in calls is clear, no complains from others - BT connection is stable I was not happy with my purchase for the first month, but now I'm really happy after some adjustments. ... show more

  • Very nice looking, great sounding ANC headphones
Color: Black Style: Gen 2
These headphones are nice. I'd been admiring them while traveling and seeing them in shops and decided to give them a try. I'm happy with the purchase. Sound is good as expected and they feel and look like quality headphones. As with most over ear headphones, my ears get hot so they aren't a pair that I'd wear for hours unless the AC is working really well. On the noise canceling aspect, there is some noise leak through, but you can tell the difference on a plane. ... show more

  • Good but can't compee with the others in noise cancelling.
Color: Black Style: Gen 2
One of the best sounding headphones but the comfort isn't great. It's very bulky and I feel the money is better spent on some Sony or other headphones. I say this especially because of the noise canceling features.

  • Rich Vibrant Sound
Color: Black Style: Gen 2
I’ve purchased the Sure Aonic 50 Gen 2 model from Amazon 3 days ago. I also have the 1st generation which I’ve used the past couple years. The Aonic 2nd generation has rich, deep, and realistic sound. The Shure play app has a great equalizer. A person can make these headphones sound any way they want. I’ve had many headphones and I personally like the sound of the Shure Aonic 50 gen 2 the best. The noise canceling is excellent and doesn’t change the original sound. I am happy with my purchase and would recommend these headphones to anybody who wants wonderful sound. ... show more
