    • Sound quality is unmatched BUT the build quality is poor
Color: Black Style: Gen 1
I purchased these Aonic 50s two years ago and love wearing them for listening to music and taking calls. However, the ear pads and headband material have separated, so I have had to replace them. Considering these headphones' price point, I expected a better build quality. The headphones are relatively heavy and don't fold for travel, so they spend their time at home in the office. The battery life is good, but the audio quality sets these headphones apart from my beats. My report card based on 2 years of use: 1) Battery life - B (not the best in the market, not the worst) 2) Build quality - B (having to replace the earpads and head pad not due to wear seems like poor quality control). Note that these headphones are heavy and fit kind of loosely. These are not headphones to wear for commuting or being active, as they will fly off your head. 3) Call quality - A. Calls are crisp, and mic pick-up is excellent. 4) Bluetooth - A. Very good and stable connection even when moving around the house. 5) Noise Cancellation - A. This is adjustable in the app and does a quality job of canceling out most background noise. 6) Audio Quality - A. Outstanding clarity, especially in the highs and mids. The bass is solid but not overwhelming or muddy. These are my go-to headphones for listening to jazz and classical. The app has EQ controls. 7) Value—B. Given some of the poor quality control issues, I am not sure I'd buy these again. However, these headphones sound great. If the build quality were better, they would be outstanding value. ... show more

    • Disappointing LDAC performance and narrow ANC can't keep me from loving these.
Color: Brown Style: Gen 1
These headphones seem to suffer from static and distortion when connected via LDAC. Their ANC seems to be tuned to only focus on a very narrow band of sound, which will probably be great when plane travel and subway cars are regular parts of life again, but mean that the ANC does essentially nothing for the kinds of sounds you deal with when working from home. And, let's be honest, the 20 hours of battery life is on the optimistic side of possible if you're listening via Bluetooth and have ANC or passthrough activated. And yet! These sound so good, and they do so many other things right that other headphones do wrong, that I can't not love them. For reference, the "name" headphones I've owned and used in the past are the MDR-7506, ATH-M40x, ATH-ANC9, WH-1000xm2, WI-1000xm2, Razer USB-C ANC, Libratone Q-Adapt In-Ear ANC, and (briefly) NuraLoop—and I wouldn't trade these for any of them. First, the sound: Over the course of an average week, I listen to jazz, jam bands, a few different genres of synth pop, indie rock, film scores, blues, and rock. I prefer a relatively "flat" balance, something that will let me hear more complex instrumentation clearly but not make simpler arrangements feel hollow. A week or two into the Aonic 50, I'm consistently discovering new details, even in albums I've listened to dozens and dozens of times before, and even when I'm not sitting down and focusing on the music. Yesterday, while listening to music at work, a song I've listened to hundreds of times over the past 15 years came on. When the chorus kicked in, someone down the hall started singing something loudly enough that I could hear it through my headphones—then I took them off and realized that no one was singing. It was just the Aonic 50 making backup singers audible who were buried so deep in the mix that other headphones had always obscured them before. They are the best sounding Bluetooth over-ears I've ever used, and the best-sounding ANC over-ears I've ever used. Comfort: Yes, the inside of the pads touch my ears. Yes, that usually bothers me a lot and limits how long I can wear a set of headphones for. No, that's not a problem with these. Maybe it's because the interior of the pads are a breathable mesh instead of pleather? Maybe it's because of the cushioning material inside of the earcups? As well as being the best-sounding over-ears, these are the second most comfortable over-ears I've used (after the old ATH-ANC9). And in-ears are just not that comfortable for me. Even with Comply tips. Even with custom tips. So, yeah, I'm finding myself wearing these more often and for longer than any other set of headphones or in-ears I've ever had, and not getting uncomfortable, hot or weary of them. They seem heavy when you're looking at specs, but the difference between these and the WH-1000xm2s is negligible when you're actually wearing them. Wired Connectivity: Dear goodness, other headset makers should be ashamed. SBC, AAC, AptX, AptX-HD, AptX-LL, and LDAC, with pretty easy multi-point connections. With headphone jacks basically extinct except on audiophile-focused devices like PMPs and phones from Sony and LG, and with a lot of Android phone makers choosing either AptX-HD or LDAC instead of supporting both, finding a set of great-sounding headphones that I know I'll be able to still use to their full potential even if I change phones has been much harder than it should be. Huge kudos to Shure for putting in the little bit of extra effort to make sure we aren't dropping hundreds of dollars on something that might end up being crippled if an accident happens and we need to upgrade to a more recent-model phone. Unfortunately, when I connect via LDAC, I get intermittent clicks of static, as well as regular staticy distortion on a lot of midrange and high-end sounds. Not that noticeable when listening to something with crunchy, distorted electric guitar, but pretty glaring on basically all other music and any podcasts or videos. This problem is less noticeable at the lowest of the three LDAC connection speeds, but still present. From looking around at a couple forums, this doesn't seem to be an isolated incident. So, points for LDAC, but deductions for LDAC being inherently problematic. I hope that this is something that can be fixed via a firmware update, because it's the thing that's really keeping me from being able to recommend these without reservation. Wired Connectivity: Again, the Aonic 50 makes other headphones look deliberately crippled. Bluetooth headphones, especially ones that cost between $200 and $500, are targeted at people who use them on the go—and if the headphones have ANC, it's probably because those on-the-go folks are often dealing with train and plane engine noise. USB-C quick-charging is great, but so many headphones don't let you listen while charging, and despite the fact that USB-C is perfectly capable of delivering data and power at the same time, most headphones don't let you listen over USB-C. These do. It's not a feature I'd probably use A LOT, but it's a feature that I know I'm going to be REALLY glad for on the few occasions I do need it. It's a little gesture that engenders a ton of goodwill from me. The other wired listening option is via a 2.5mm analogue jack. The headphones come with a 2.5mm-to-3.5mm cable, and I already have a third-party 2.5mm-to-3.5mm cable that includes inline volume controls, mic and remote, but a more standard 3.5mm jack on the headphones would have taken it from good to great. Basically, these are great, but their LDAC implementation is sub-par. ... 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
