Any audiophile knows Apple's AirPods Max are comically overpriced and garbage. Sony XM5/XM4 Series have better sound quality and features at a much lower price. They work well across iOS AND Android too. There are so many competitors at that price range and Apple doesnt come close

The Apple actually has a more neutral frequency response graph. But most audiophiles just take an open back anyway for Indoor use.

LOL, “audiophiles” are nothing more than peddlers and consumers of electronic woo and snake oil. They wouldn’t recognize the difference.
Audio pros laugh at these people as soon as the payment clears. I don’t put any stock into what they “know” (usually what they have convinced themselves is real)

The difference is massive. I have BOTH the AirPods and the sony’s and anyone can tell the difference.
By your logic, why doesn't everyone just buy the AirPods 1 instead paying much more for airpods 3 or pro??? People are just consumers and can't tell the difference right???
