obey your master master
these are the master dynamic mw75 active
noise cancelling headphones they are the newest product from master and dynamic a
relatively new player in the uh audio scene their main 2014 and they kind of
fit into a unique niche of being like very lifestyle focused and very fashion
focused you might remember them from the louis vuitton headphones video because
these guys actually made the louis vuitton earbuds louis vuitton just
slapped their brand on it and charged literally five times more
for them and you know i kind of like what they're doing is that they're trying to be style focused that does
come at the cost of price we'll talk about that in a bit i'm excited to look at these they're made of premium
materials that's always good adaptive active noise canceling and also best in
class talk eight microphones what else we got on the back we have a list of the products
that are on the inside looks like we have headphones a case some cables an
airplane adapter that's kind of nice quarter inch adapter which is uh honestly unexpected from a lifestyle
headphone that's usually the kind of thing that you'll see with like studio focused headphones something to note is
that these are 600
usd that's a lot of money to put that in context
that's 50 more than the airpods max which are kind
of already a famously expensive headphone this is a very interesting
case it's like felt you can even see like the little
hairs and stuff you can see like it's this just looks
like it's going to get dirty really quickly decently durable case
again i thought about this with the barracudas as well as with these if you're going to
be a lifestyle headphone and your whole point about portability it's really
really nice if you could fold in so here's a banana this should really put a
measurement on this if it's gonna be for scale it should at least be like have
like some gradation on it these are the headphones which look pretty nice oh wow
this is these ear cups are plush also kind of small these kind of look like
they might be more over ear on my ears here's your
quarter inch uh airplane
usb-c to type a adapter braided cables
so i guess this is for plugging into the airport adapter
USB-C to USB-C that means there's usbc on this end
oh very nice is this real leather on it
is it's a lamb it's a lamb skin did they
did it's not even an adult sheep no
babies only oh god so there's aluminum and
tempered glass are the ear cups removable
okay hey look at that oh they are they're just magnetic that's sweet yes good job
i like that they're replaceable so they have memory foam ear pads here we have
the controls plus a minus
a mystery button here we have the power button and then that has a little
wavelength that might be the noise canceling
um here's the other thing that was in the box which was a wireless bluetooth adapter
this thing's huge all-day power 22 hours of battery life
premium materials crafted from machined aluminum
look at this thing this is like a charging block oh
okay i get what it's for it's for the airplane again so that tells you
something about the target audience for this is that they're targeting people who are going to be flying a lot this is
so you can use your headphones wirelessly
and also listen to the airplane movie but i love the idea of somebody sitting
down beside you just they sit down in the airplane beside you like so
and then they plug in and then this is also a battery pack then
it has bluetooth 5.0 with appdex and ll and aptx hd
also works with exercise equipment portable game consoles and record
players i don't know if i've ever seen a portable game console that has this configuration do you know how much this
is seventy dollars for this
i mean i got a bluetooth adapter from canadian tire for like eight bucks so
okay headphone time i guess but before that a message from our sponsor thanks
to you green for sponsoring today's video ugreen's here to make charging
more convenient with their new nexo 65 watt charger it's a three-in-one charger
that has two usb-c ports and a usb-a port in a super compact package that
fits into the palm of your hand though it's small you can still charge
your 13-inch macbook pro from zero to 100 in less than two hours it also has
foldable prongs and an intelligent power system that adjusts power output to
protect your device's battery so check out ugreen to get your 65 watt nexo
charger at the link below let's talk about the features on this bad boy so
one they have 40 millimeter beryllium drivers 32 hours of battery life with 28
hours if you're using anc 15 minutes of quick charging gives you six hours of
battery it has bluetooth 5.1 which is a little disappointing considering that
bluetooth 5.2 is already exists it
should have 5.2 at this price point because these are 600
so you're competing with airpods and max you're like 33 more expensive than the
bose noise canceling headphones the iconic travel headphones you're really
really pushing it with this and i get it they're more of a fashion brand but
still and in a way the bose headphones have their own sense of status it's like
that guy works in business that guy has a real job because they're the de facto
ones they have their own status it's the same thing with apple products like apple products
denote a sort of status whereas master dynamic is like coming in here and being
like we're also status
let's turn them on
oh okay so they have uh it keeps pinging me with sounds they
have um audio detection you can see right there that there's a little
there's little holes in the ear cups it's very similar to the air pods
they keep making a little
so i think that's searching for bluetooth which is nice because a lot of devices will just be like
not telling you what they do that's one of the biggest grievances i have with
bluetooth is how often you just don't know what's happening and so it's super
frustrating when bluetooth breaks because is it working is it slow am i an
idiot like and this at least lets you know that it's searching for something
these do have qualcomm aptx enabled which is why we also got this
phone what is this phone it's the sony xperia brandon you like this phone
these are actually really uh quite nice i could see you having issues if you
have bigger ears the cups aren't that big and i can uh feel them
kind of pushing up against my earlobes a little bit
mileage may vary on these ones um but the ear cups are very very nice they're
very plush they feel supportive these actually feel really comfortable
which is great and the hinge feels it's very much the same kind of
mechanism as the air the maxes you can have any sort of distance you want
um and it just kind of holds it there it's really nice
oh it's got a lady that talks to me it's also i don't know if you've watched
dank pods but it's the sexy voice it's like a sexy voice
listen to how horny this is gonna make you listening
can you imagine you're laying down with the wife and then she comes into you and she just goes
ambient listening on oh and if you like dank pods you can actually find him
streaming on Floatplane he does uh drum streams so
check that stuff out it's garbage time this is what the channel is called the
mics on here there's four of them there's one here on the top of each
earphone one on the bottom of each earphone these are beam forming
microphones which is just means that they have directionality and they're
aimed towards your mouth okay so this does this is one of my pet
peeves so this is the normal seal they're off
and then if i want to listen i have to choose between anc on or ambient
listening which is super annoying because both of those change the sound
i'll switch to ambient listening there's about like a second long delay before it
actually switches into that mode and then it's just like there's like a hiss there's a background
hiss from the microphones and that's also present
in the noise canceling maybe they're turned up really loud that might be
something that i should check before i play anything into my precious little
ears no it's still there um because sometimes headphones will like
they'll be a little bit of a hiss when they start getting a signal they go oh we're playing something
it's a bad thing no matter what you want there to be no hiss that's kind of a
disappointment because if i have
the 50 less expensive airpods maxes
those don't have any noise yeah like the hiss is just gone um and again
master dynamic this is your competition maybe it's
something that can be fix an update maybe it's a because they do have an md
master dynamic app okay cool so my device is up to date so
apparently there's no firmware to fix this issue maybe it will come in the
future you can switch between ambient anc and neither
that hiss is just kind of always there what is that
even when it's off so strange um by themselves they get a
pretty good seal which is great auto off timer any detection you have some eq
presets um but no actual
eq you have bass boost bass cut vocal boost emphasize vocals
and mid-range sounds oh sweet you can add the third option to the headphones
my complaint about there being no option to have the anc off and without
listening that is solved by getting the app okay
listen time this is just over aac
not the highest definition codec you can deal with it's also on youtube music not
the highest definition audio
these sound pretty dang good i'm very surprised by how reserved these
headphones are compared to their mw07s
that like were the louis vuitton headphones those are
much more emphasizing a v-shaped curve where lots of bass extra treble a very
fun sound these are these are classy not exactly
referenced to my ears but they're really not trying to be they're not trying to
change the sound of what you're listening to too much the noise cancelling doesn't affect the
sound of the music too much it does make it a little more brittle things appear a
little bit sharper compared to having noise canceling off
yeah and the anc is done pretty well obviously the laptop isn't a great test
because a and c it tends to block out more of the lower sounds and a laptop
just can't really produce sounds that low the nice thing about this is that
you have different settings for your anc i'm not sure if they're adjustable through the headphones but you can
adjust them through the app you have max all day and adaptive adaptive i guess is
just based on how loud the surrounding environment is all day is less aggressive anc max is like if you're
gonna be on an airplane or something let's compare the anc on these
okay
the macs have far better anc they're a little more aggressive
but it's just it's just quieter it really is let's give a quick listen with the
qualcomm optics as well
hey it actually does have multi it's connected to both it's switching
it has ear detection it paused
but yeah this is very qualcomm aptx oh my god
um also volume buttons on the headphone thank you there's a button to pause
this same but one one tap to pause a long press opens your voice assistant
oh that's a pretty bad delay um this is via just bluetooth as opposed to app
decks which has far lower latency we'll i'll check that in a moment you got your
skip forward this is the these are the controls that i want what's happening
don't worry they won't copyright strike this
so can i recommend these that's really tough to say because 600
airpods max fifty dollars less and then
if you want like the sony xm5s that's a hundred and fifty dollars left no
there's two hundred dollars less because they're only four hundred dollars for
the xm5 and if you want to go cheaper than that the xm4s which are almost as
good as the xm5s are like only like 270 bucks right now do they look cooler than
these stupid metal earmuffs yes do they look cooler than the old man bows little
sticks yes as a fashion item i think these succeed wonderfully i think they
look great as an accessory you won't be disappointed if you buy these but i
can't really recommend them for six hundred dollars so like if you know that
you care about the style and the looks and you like what mastering dynamics
doing these are a great get but they are really
really expensive thanks for watching ShortCircuit if you like this video why
don't you check out james's video on the master dynamic mg20s that's their gaming
headset which is a an interesting move for this company but
you know maybe he liked them i haven't watched the video but i'm gonna go there right
now and watch it so why don't you come with me
