hi which bluetooth receiver do you like best ? The earstudio seems quite goodFirst thing I look for with BT ear/headphones is not mentioned in your review.
Do they support LDAC or at least AptxHD ?
I wouldn't buy any now unless they do, as LDAC is really getting close to wired reproduction.
My SE846's via either Fiio BTR3 or Earstudio ES100 sound superb over BT LDAC (and to a slightly lesser level via AptxHD).
I recently tried some Sony WH-1000XM3's (and B&W PX) but sound quality significantly lower than using good IEM's/headphones with one of adapters mentioned, and with IEM's able to act a bit like earplugs can still sound great in noisy environments (even air travel) without active noise cancelling.
These do like a nice design/style for the money.

ok thanksSound nearly identical via 3.5mm. Fiio is nicer made and better control layout and much cheaper. If you need more power for headphones or need balanced then earstudio, otherwise Fiio.
Still have Fiio but returned the Earstudio.
They look pretty cool, thanks for that Greg. The KitSound site doesn't appear to work when trying to view the specs (a warning appears about an error on line 82). Would you happen to know the codecs that this works with over Bluetooth?
These could be good for testing whether this type of headphone is going to work for me without spending a fortune.
Thanks...

Have these headphones and they sound great. @Greg Hook did you find the wireless charger very temperamental as to the position of the headphones before it charges?
My Phone charges fine, but can I get them to charge my headphones?! Nope
