PerL Pro True Wireless Earbuds - Adaptive Active Headphones Wireless Noise Canceling, Masimo Adaptive Acoustic Technology, Spatial Audio, 32Hr Battery Life, Wirefree Charging, Black

Aint no joke. I have been an audiophile journalist for over 20 years. I recently retired. I have experienced 90% of the flagship full size models out there from Audeze, to Sennheiser and Abyss, and back again. After I retired, I said I want to go back to the best of the best and keep those, as I had a massive Flagship collection. I ended up keeping the Koss ESP95x electrostatic rig, the Audeze LCD4, and the TH-900MK1 from Fostex that I had modded with a detachable cable. After homing the LCD4 for a few months and being absolutely addicted by it, I wanted a portable LCD4. Everyone said thats not possible. I said give it a year, someone will make something. And lo' and behold, Denon rises. This IEM sounds just like the Audeze LCD4, which is the best non electrostatic Audeze ever made, IMO. Its warm, musical, fun, thick, weighted, and has good imaging sound staging. All of that actually rivals multi thousand dollar custom IEMs that I had and I sold all of them the second I heard this. I currently have no iems anymore, I have one set of regular wired earbuds for working out, and then there is the PerlPro. This headphone is wildly underrated, and punches so far above its weight in price to performance that I am just beyond shocked that Denon has not improved it with a new gen model after this 2nd edition. Yes, its really that good after you setup its custom EQ for your ears in the app. After that, set the EQ with a small bass boost and wow, this is just a portable LCD4 for $180. The bass is insanely responsive, meaning you can EQ it a lot and it actually will add more in, or less, and not degrade the quality of the experience. Its highly responsive in that nature. Treble is certainly the weakness but overall this is one of the best, if not THE best non custom IEM in the world. Bass is unrivaled, IMO. I have not heard another IEM that does bass like this. Well textured, musical, fun, its not a fast snappy bass, its meant to linger and be slow, its not clinical, or analytical. If you want that, this IEM is not for you.

I’ve demoed just about every serious pair of wireless earbuds I could get my hands on, across price tiers and brands, and these stand apart on one thing that actually matters to me: music quality. I’ve spent time with premium options like Technics, HiFi, and Sennheiser Momentum, and also plenty of popular budget favorites like the Soundcore Liberty Pro and Nothing earbuds. None of them come close to what the Denon Perl Pro delivers in pure sound reproduction. The clarity is immediately noticeable. Separation between instruments is excellent, bass is deep but controlled, and mids stay natural without getting recessed. Vocals sound present and textured rather than processed. These do not chase exaggerated tuning or artificial punch (providing you use their custom tuning calibration app). What really elevates them is how well they adapt to your hearing. Once dialed in, the sound feels effortless and immersive, closer to good wired headphones than any true wireless earbuds I’ve tried. This is the first time I’ve felt no urge to EQ or “fix” anything. HUGEEEE sound stage! No connectivity issues. Decent battery life. They are not perfect. The charging case feels lighter and flimsier than I would expect at this price point, and microphone quality is just average. They are fine for quick calls, but these are clearly not designed for people who live on conference calls. That said, I didn’t buy these for the case or the mic. I bought them for music, and on that front they outperform everything else I’ve tested, regardless of price. If sound quality is your top priority and you want the best-sounding true wireless earbuds available right now, these are in a class of their own.

They have a very good sound, even without an equalizer. These are the first headphones of this type in which I use an equalizer to a minimum extent. The ear tips are made of a material that causes severe discomfort in my ears. Despite the good seal, after an hour of use I start to feel significant discomfort. After another hour, I stop listening because of the intense burning sensation. I don't have this problem with MTW3/MTW4. Additionally, wings adapters are more of a hindrance than they are helpful in my case. After removing the wings adapters and replacing the ear tips with spinfit ones, I can use them all day without any problems. The batteries work great, 9.5 hours at 50% volume in normal settings, not in the eco version. Taking them out of the charging case and putting them in your ears is not pleasant. Because they have slippery and round edges. You can't turn off the sound signals completely, and you can't deactivate ANC without transparency mode. These two functions work together, I hate ANC so I don't have transparency mode either. The rest of the touch functions can be set, but according to Denon rules, not like in MTW3/MTW4. They have a very good Bluetooth range, better than MTW3/MTW4.The application also works very well, although it loads very slowly. Which one would I choose between MTW3/ MTW4? A difficult decision when it comes to practicality in use without modifications and the price, certainly MTW3, not MTW4, in which senncheiser has worsened the sound quality in new models. Why did this happen? I'm not sure, maybe it was to reduce white noise in transparency mode? For me, better sound is more important than light white noise. It can be compared to Dolby B in old tape recorders. I have never used this function except to test how it works. Because it worsened the sound quality and reduced the noise in return. Everyone must decide personally what is more important to them. The first pair of DENON headphones came defective, one of the headphones had humming and noise when the ANC function was turned on. I probably wouldn't have noticed it if it weren't for the fact that this function activates itself during the sound profile settings. The next couple doesn't have this problem. Additionally, when using ANC, the bass is clearly boosted, but ANC does not activate itself the next time you turn on these headphones. This was the case with the Sony WF-1000XM3 and this function could only be turned off from the application. That's why, among other things, I also said goodbye to Sony forever, because I believe that using a product should be a pleasure and not a fight against the manufacturers' ideas. Update: Unfortunately, after all the tests, the result dropped to one star. Because all seven sets of these headphones that I tested had faulty microphones or electronics on one side. Why didn't I write about this earlier? Because I very rarely use the phone call function through headphones. I discovered this only when the phone rang while I was listening to music. The person on the other end couldn't understand what I was saying so I thought there might be a problem with pairing. I restarted the headphones but it didn't help, so I restarted the phone but it didn't help either. I did everything I could to rule out faulty headphones but nothing helped. So I tested both headphones on the dictaphone in the phone and it turned out that one side was faulty. When I use the good headphones, phone calls and recordings on the dictaphone sound very good. When I use the faulty one, the sound is very muffled. After connecting the faulty headphone and the good one, the faulty one interferes with the work of the good one and the sound is muffled again despite the fact that the good headphone is also working at the same time. On top of all this, you can't use the application without connecting to the Denon server. I thought it was just a trick but no, it really happens. The ear canal test is complete nonsense. I swapped the headphones in my ears from the left to the right side and the graph was the same despite changing ears in all seven sets I tested. Denon as you probably guessed this is my last attempt at these and other models of your company's headphones.

良かった点 ・ごっつい音質でマジでライブ感マシマシ ・装着感がぴったり ・カスタマイズ性が豊富 ・２万円って考えたら企業が心配になるほどのコスパ ・ケースがコンパクトで持ち運びが凄く楽 気に入らなかった点 ・少しイヤホンの再生時間が短い ・装着感が合わない人には全く合わない (自分は問題なし) ・楕円形ノズルでイヤーピースは選ぶ ・ノイキャンは実用的ではあるものの少し弱い ちなみに私のオススメイヤーピースはfinalのfusion gです。付けるのは大変ですが一度付いてしまえば安定し、ノイキャンも結構強くしてくれます。音質はあまり変化がないですが、低音がハッキリする感覚です。

Verpackung und Erster Eindruck: Die Denon Pearl Pro In-Ear-Kopfhörer bestechen bereits beim Auspacken. Schon die äußere Hülle strahlt Eleganz und Hochwertigkeit aus. Der erste Blick auf die Kopfhörer bestätigt diesen positiven Eindruck, da sie sorgfältig gefertigt sind und einen edlen Eindruck vermitteln. Passform und Ohrpolster: Auch das Tragen der Kopfhörer erzeugt ein komfortables und hochwertiges Gefühl. Allerdings sollte angemerkt werden, dass die mitgelieferten Ohrpolster subjektiv betrachtet etwas zu groß dimensioniert sind. Obwohl ich normalerweise keine Probleme mit den Standard-Ohrpolstern habe, fielen mir diese schnell aus den Ohren. Zum Glück stehen kleinere Ohrpolster als Alternative zur Verfügung, die einen besseren Sitz gewähren. Konnektivität: Die Verbindung zu meinen Geräten gestaltet sich unkompliziert und störungsfrei. Besonders praktisch und ebenso unkompliziert ist die Möglichkeit, gleichzeitig mit zwei Geräten verbunden zu sein. Soundqualität: Die Klangqualität der Denon Pearl Pro ist beeindruckend. Die Höhen sind kristallklar, der Bass ist kraftvoll und präzise. Insgesamt decken die Kopfhörer den gesamten Frequenzbereich ab und bieten ein ausgewogenes Klangerlebnis. Mikrofonqualität: Die integrierte Mikrofonqualität der Kopfhörer liefert beeindruckende Ergebnisse. Sie ermöglicht klare Gespräche sowohl in geschlossenen Räumen als auch während Outdoor-Aktivitäten wie Fahrradfahren, selbst bei Fahrtwind oder seitlichem Wind. Noise Cancelling: Das Noise Cancelling der Denon Pearl Pro In-Ear-Kopfhörer übertrifft sämtliche Erwartungen. Es eliminiert störende Hintergrundgeräusche äußerst effektiv und ermöglicht ein ungestörtes Hörerlebnis oder Telefonieren. Besonders hervorzuheben ist der Social Mode, der individuelle Einstellungen für Aktivitäten wie Radfahren oder Bahnfahren bietet. Hierbei werden unerwünschte Geräusche gefiltert und wichtige Klänge verstärkt. Diese Funktion funktioniert signifikant besser als bei den meisten In-Ear-Kopfhörern, die ich bis dato verwendet habe. Mobile App und Anpassungsmöglichkeiten: Die begleitende App stellt eine breite Palette von Anpassungsmöglichkeiten bereit, darunter einen Equalizer und diverse Optionen für das Noise Cancelling. Die Fähigkeit, den Equalizer über die App individuell einzustellen, ist ein weiterer erheblicher Vorteil, insbesondere für audiophile Nutzer, die so den Klang nach ihren persönlichen Vorlieben feinabstimmen können. Akkulaufzeit: Die Akkulaufzeit der Denon Pearl Pro In-Ear-Kopfhörer ist beeindruckend und ermöglicht stundenlangen Musikgenuss. Selbst bei aktiviertem Noise Cancelling beträgt die Akkulaufzeit etwa 6-7 Stunden. Diese lange Betriebsdauer ist äußerst praktisch und gewährleistet, dass die Kopfhörer auch auf längeren Reisen oder bei ausgedehnten Aktivitäten ohne Unterbrechung verwendet werden können. Gewicht und Tragekomfort: Ein kleiner Nachteil, den ich bemerkt habe, betrifft das Gewicht der Kopfhörer. Trotz der passenden Ohrpolster tendieren sie gelegentlich dazu, aus den Ohren zu rutschen. Dies tritt zwar nicht häufig auf, kann jedoch insbesondere aus hygienischen oder verlusttechnischen Gründen problematisch sein. Fazit: Alles in allem sind die Denon Pearl Pro In-Ear-Kopfhörer ein herausragendes Produkt, das ohne Bedenken empfohlen werden kann. Die Verpackung und der erste Eindruck zeugen von hoher Qualität, die Klangqualität ist beeindruckend, das Noise Cancelling ist erstklassig, und die App bietet zahlreiche Möglichkeiten zur individuellen Anpassung. Trotz des gelegentlichen Problems mit dem Gewicht der Kopfhörer handelt es sich um ein Produkt, das ich gerne mit 5 Sternen bewerte. Ich habe dieses Gerät zu Testzwecken erhalten, dennoch kann ich es uneingeschränkt empfehlen!

These earbuds are simply amazing. I bought the Technics AZ80, Beoplay EX, Sony XM5, and OnePlus Pro 3 and the only ones that sound as good are the Beoplay. To me the OnePlus and Sony just sounded awful. I'd say they are an all round bud that do everything good enough. The technics are probably the best all round because they sound better then these 2 but are just behind on ANC, transparency. Beoplay sounded great, did calls well but would constantly cut out. Like many times an hour, you could not walk around. Just embarassing. Denon to be were the most comfortable even though they look awful. Amazing sound after you go through the sound tuning. First pair I got were awful for calls and got another pair and they are good. ANC and transparency are good enough for me as I use them on the bus and have no complaints. Also multipoint on these work great as they did on all except the Beoplay.

Absolutely incredible sound, the dynamic personal sound profile that it builds for you is the selling point of these and makes them sound probably better than any true wireless earbuds out there because its basically a personalized EQ profile that matches your ears well. On top of it you can and should add your own EQ to match your personal preferences and the Harman curve if you wish, but what's incredible with these is how good they sound out of the box compared with everything else out there. That said the ANC is nowhere near Apple and Samsung, and the comfort is also not as good. Buy these if all you care about is sound quality!

I have tried these over the weekend and can safely say they provide a truly excellent sound quality - on par with the study headphones like Sony 1000xm-series. The magic comes from the ear calbration feature that provides an amazing sound that is balanced, warm and natural. Each ear is calibrated separately and in my case i got slightly different results for L and R respectively. Noice calibration, and the "social feature" where you tap the left plug to get a mode where you can speak and socialize also works really well. I do recommend them. Excellent value for the price.
