From what I see measurement wise anyway, there is nothing about the Airpod Max that you couldn't closely approximate by equalizing the Sony XM3/4. I may order the Airpod Max simply to test, but for some reason I thought I read something that indicated as a non-iPhone user, I am Android all the way, I may not be able to use the Max to the, well, to the max. I'll have to investigate things further. It looks like a lot of money put into gimmicky features I would never use so even if it sounds very good, which seems probable, I would still be wasting plenty of money. Plus that clamping force is high and I suspect it would be uncomfortable similar to the B&W PX which I bought twice and returned due to clamping force.
And it looks like a pretty serious low treble dip in the Airpod Max as well, enough to dull the sound. I am sure it would have a nice even sound, warm and non-fatiguing. I am really interested to see if someone in the US will send Amir a set to measure.
