I love these new buds. They have exceptional sound quality. I do own a pair of Bose noise cancelling earbuds and the Denon buds are definitely a step up in sound quality. The pairing and setup of the earbuds was very easy and very quick. I found the right fit easily as well. I did wear them to the gym and had no problem with and had no problem with them staying in my ear. I will say the only negative is that the noise cancelling is not as good as the Bose, but the sound quality more than made up for it. I will have music on anyway and can't hear anything while my music is playing.

I was not expecting these earbuds to be as great as they are. The combination of the personal sound profile, immersion, and additional EQ management make these better than most stereo headphones. As well, the way they fit into my ear is the best I've found. I don't have to constantly push them back in to be able to hear the full range of the music. If you want earbuds you can jam out with, these are the ones.

I have not had good luck, in general, with earbuds. I had never found a set that fit securely and comfortably, that also sound great. These Denons are the exception to this. they fit securely, are comfortable over long periods (including overnight), and sound great. The noise cancelling is superb, and the battery life is the best I've experienced, at 8 hours per charge. Highly recommended.

As an audiophile I was hesitant to purchase any earbuds as opposed to studio quality over-the-ear headphones, but these sound AMAZING out of the box. These buds sound even better after installing the Denon Headphones app and using it to customize them to your eardrum. They are very comfortable, and the app does not require google services if installing on a de-googled device.

Love these. Have been looking for a good pair of earbuds. Have read different reviews and decided to purchase. These earbuds go above and beyond my expectations. The Sound Quality is Outstanding as well as the customizable sound profile.\nI do suggest purchasing the memory foam ear tips for a more comfortable fit.\n A

denon never disappoints...the PerL Pro ear buds are a step forward. the denon app that goes with the buds is easy to understand and makes setting up the denon PerL Pro simple and quick. the sound that these are putting into my ears is amazing and a step forward. go for it.

These sound amazing! especially if you do the sound test and like bass. I have small ears and do struggle with the fit quite a bit. I can wear them for max an hour unless I have the perfect fit which just feels weird in my ear, like it doesn't fully give me the passive noise cancelling but it's worth for the occasional HIFi itch I get! Mine are a little loose on the left side. like the big circle part is loose in a way that it shouldn't be which has me a little weird. I wonder if the limited warranty would cover it...fyi the Noise cancelling/transparency on these are not good but it's there. Comparing it to the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro Noise cancelling.

great earphones the sound flat or the works? the personalized equaliser works pretty well. it creates a great sound signature. the mids are great. bass reproduction is really good. sometimes the trouble can get a bit inny, but it is fine most of the time notice \nthe sound cancellation can be better, it is not at par compared to other brands like Sony and Bose. \ndoes have connectivity issues, sometimes one of the ear phone connects and the other one takes a few seconds to he can kick in\noverall a great by you can get it for a discount buy if your budget is higher than 200 dollars, you should have consider other brands

works for audiophiles. The customization is amazing and also the quality of the sound is really good. The fit is not so much. But I have been using it for cardio, weightlifting and it works very well.

Authentic, new Denon earbuds. Incredible, personalized sound quality for the price. The scratched out SN comment was totally wrong. The SN is in the app and on the label.

Great sound!\nErgonomics: just a bit difficult to take out of the case

On sale these are killer. But then for $125

Excellent product, would purchase again!

These are the best earbuds I've owned so far

Good sound quality and comfortable.

This is probably my tenth set of wireless BT earbuds.  Why, because they keep getting better, and I've always appreciated the Denon sound quality (I have their receivers and wireless speaker).  Denon claims 24h battery life 8h+16h from charging case). I fully charged, and updated my firmware before trying them out.  I had no problem pairing them with my iPhone 15 pro.  I then ran them through Tara Labs Noise burn in overnight (they lasted ~7h 45m), just short of the 8h quoted, and then I recharged them.  I installed the Denon Headphone App. The earbuds were immediately recognized, and my battery level showed 100% on each earbud. The software provides an equalizer (only 5 bands, 400, 1K, 2.2K, 5K & 10K that you can adjust +/-6db; not overwhelming, but adequate), you can save your own curve with your profile. They allow setting up to 3 profiles, the real customization comes from the Adaptive Acoustic Technology, which plays a series of tones/music and then detects how well you hear each frequency, it only takes a minute or so (in a very quiet environment) for these tests to be done. They graphicly show you where they are testing and re-testing. They then show you what areas they believe need emphasis.  I was not surprised to see I need a little mid to low end boost, but that my high end hearing was good. You can then compare your personalised curve on/off. Leaving little doubt how well it works!\n\nThen on to the really important part, how do they sound and fit.  I generally move to the next larger rubber earbud surround, but after testing I found the standard set worked just fine for me.  I generally prefer a soft spongy insert for longer listening, which they include in the standard size. And they fit comfortably in my ear canals', they did not feel loose, like they might come out, and the sound seal seemed very good. I had a hard time telling the difference between the foam and the silicon, but I think the form isolated the external sound better.\n\nNow to the music, Pink Floyd's masterpiece; DSOTM.  Speak to Me sounded great, the volume level was wonderful, opening up the subtle sounds of the song. I had the  earbuds at 80% volume and that was fine (for now), but knowing they could be drive higher, I did play with the immersion mode at +2/+3, this boosts the low/mid bass, mostly (+2 is nice; +5 provides too much emphasis; your mileage may very). The subtle tones were absolutely superb as the song builds; it had the oomph you could feel, that higher volume brought.  The high notes (treble) in Time were excellent, these earbuds provide a sharp/crisp clear airy high end.  Then Great Gig In the Sky's ethereal voices, wisp around the soundstage (enhanced by the included Spatial Audio) with the bass building as it should have.  Money got me drumming, it sounded so real, the tom-toms had a real kick to them, and it was even better a little louder.  Us and Them was tremendous, it kept me turning my head, like I could tell the different instruments were right in front and around me.  As we ended with Eclipse I felt like the little voices in my head would persist, and there would be more.\n\nThen I quickly listened to Kansas Live, with Carry on my Wayward son; the vocals all came from different locations, and I could literally visualise the guitars moving in front of me.  Again the sound stage with live music is much better than I expected from ear buds.  I then moved to Boston's first album; More than a feeling was very crisp, and the bass had real presence with very nice highs.  On Foreplay/Long time the fade in/out fade had great separation it was nearly surreal.  The subtle build up was just as I expected, possibly better.  The bass was nice and deep, a little boomy (I turned the immersion mode down to 2, and it was more to my liking). Here I tried turning the personalization on/off to see how well it worked.  Quite impressive, like having a 2D or 3D soundstage.  The immersion  mode can be overdone, but it's easy to adjust. I tapped the earbuds to advance the song, it worked as I expected.  The touch controls can be programmed as you desire (a nice feature) 1,2,3 taps and double tap and hold, so 4 different options on each earbud.  The software can also control ANC (Adaptive Noise Cancellation), On and Off. Outside I could barely hear my A/C running with it on, and it was noticeable with it off.  A big difference, I imagine they will work great on an airplane.  But I don't think it is as good as a couple other name brands in doing the cancellation.  And I do really like their social mode that lets you hear the external sounds clearly, and mostly mute the music in the earbuds.\n\nI'm accustomed to the software including custom sound profile but the Denon customization/personalization does a truly excellent job. The immersion mode is another bonus, the EQ could have more bands and the ANC does a really nice job.  The earbuds are plenty loud with great battery life.  The battery case is a reasonable size with a US

love it..no regrets

Included in the box are several ear tips, including one pair of foam, and two sets of ear wings that help secure the earbuds in your ears. While the overall diameter is large, they are very low profile. The outer disk on each earbud is a touchpad which has four options for control from a single tap up to four taps. While it has default options for single and double tap all controls can be customized. Multipoint Bluetooth is available for up to two devices simultaneously. The behavior for how audio is switched is customizable. Auto pause behavior is also customizable where you can choose to pause when one or both earbuds is removed or not to auto pause at all.\n\nSetup 9/10\nWhile you can pair them via Bluetooth and begin using them straight away you won’t be able to customize the audio or settings without going through the Denon Headphones app. Unfortunately, the app requires registration to begin. Beyond that you are required to provide your email, name, and age as well as opt into marketing emails. It will not continue if you do not agree to these. During setup the earbuds provide audio prompts as they guide you through tuning the earbuds to your ears. While the initial voice is pleasant, you cannot change the volume so if you have decent hearing, you might find the first stage of the setup painful as it plays ear piercing sounds. After the tuning is complete you can compare the earbuds with and without your personalized profile. While the customized sound does sound better, it almost seems like Denon artificially sets the default EQ poorly to make your customized sound seem even better than it already is. After custom tuning you can also try out social mode, spatial mode, and immersion mode. Social mode and spatial audio are only on/off. Immersion is customizable but essentially adds or removes bass. After creating your custom tune, you can still customize the EQ if you prefer to color the sound beyond what your ears hear best. The earbuds can store multiple tuning profiles for different users and the settings seems to be stored directly on the earbuds. This way if you would like to share them with a family member and they have their own Denon account they can still access their custom profile on the earbuds. You can also switch between them just to see how each person hears different.\n\nUsage 9/10\nThe case holds the earbuds in with strong magnets. The earbuds are unlikely to fall out of the case accidentally. In fact, you might find removing them from the case is a bit harder than it needs to be as they sit down into the case without any real way to put your finger underneath them or grip them from above to remove them. There is just a tiny gap where you can jamb your finger to wedge them out. It would have been ice if Denon included an area that would easily fit your finger to get underneath or even had the earbuds sit a little higher in the base instead of flush. Putting them in your ears is simple once you get the hang of it. You push them in and then turn to lock them in place. For some you might need to gently pull back on your earlobe while turning to get a better lock of the ear wing at the back of your year. Once you have them in, they feel very comfortable. Since they are low profile, they don’t put a lot of pressure on your ear canal and the ear wing keeps them from wiggling around. They are also light enough to not feel distracting. This is the longest I have ever been able to wear a pair of earbuds without feeling pain or any discomfort. Controls are simple and easy using anywhere from 1 to 4 taps on either the left or right earbud. The areas you tap are very sensitive and so far, haven’t been affected by sweat. There are two downsides for the controls. First is when you tap them, it creates a loud thump sound on your eardrum. Second is that successive taps are registered slowly meaning you can’t do a quick double tap to change songs.\n\nMusic Qual

I am a big audiophile and owned probably dozen wireless buds searching for the best sounding headphones, with good seal, ANC, clarity, battery life, and clean microphones that allowed conference calling. I had them all, Bose, Jabra, Jbird, Sony 1000xm3, xm4 and xm5, etc. I now got Perl pro (rebranded Nuro) with Massimo technology. At first I was not super happy, but once I replaced tips with Comply foam, the fit became almost perfect. 3 weeks into ownership, the left bud started to exhibit cracking sounds and disconnected sound. The next day, it wouldn't turn on at all. It wouldn't charge and headphones became unusable since it relies on both buds being available to turn them on. I was pretty upset. To add to the injury, the case only charged the headphones once before the light turned red. It's anything but advertised 24 hours of additional charging which is 3 full charges. I had them exchanged (thanks to Amazing CS at B&H Video), and the new pair works well, but the case still charges the headphones only once before the light goes red on the charging case. I decided to check Amazon reviews and there are two reviews with the same issue there. One stated left side died and another (I believe it was in Japanese but translated) review showed the case to also charge just once before having to recharge it. This is definitely a manufacturer defect and unless many folks complain, Denon won't do a thing. These are most expensive wireless buds on the market, shouldn't they work and charge as advertised at mininum...

Sound quality sounds horrible until u setup the personalization and than it sounds good. So it makes it seem kind of gimmicky to have to go thru the set up to get it to sound good. It should sound good out the box.

Sound is okay but the microphone is bad

Denon is really best known for their line of home audio products, designed to give you optimal sound with some of the best receivers available. I went into this with the same expectations, a quality pair of headphones, with amazing sound, minimal audio quality loss, and superb usability. I can honestly say, they didn’t disappoint! In the box, you’ll find the Denon charging case, the two ear buds within, a charging cable, various sizes of tips, and some basic documentation. In order to maximize your use, I’d highly recommend installing the Denon app, which is free in your compatible app store. Pairing with your device is as easy as putting the ear buds on, and following the voice guidance, you’re directed to find them discoverable via Bluetooth. I found the initial pairing process was easy, and the ear buds were immediately recognized and paired with my iPhone in a matter of seconds. Without performing any of the app calibrations, I was pleasantly surprised with the audio quality and bass response. However, once you’ve opened the app, you’ll find that you can customize the audio using a feature which measures the sound in your ears. You’ll hear a variety of tones, some low and some high, that allow the ear buds to calibrate to your hearing to provide the best audio quality available. This took a minute or two, but once it was done, it provided a personalized EQ like setting which really brings the audio to a whole new level of awesome. After I performed the initial calibration, I rarely ever adjusted the audio for any type of content moving forward. I even turned off the EQ built into the settings on my iPhone and relied only on the Denon applied settings for sound. Listening to a variety of content, I was blown away with just how clear the audio was. The Denon’s even provided better sound than my previous earbuds when using noise cancelling. Taking these on a flight, I did notice that most sound was filtered out, and while it’s not as great as earphones that cover the entire ear, they easily outperformed my previous headphones as the go-to for travel. The included case also charges them when not in use, and does an admirable job of keeping them charged for most of the day. Overall, I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the audio experience and the easy to use app to set everything from taps to holds to control volume, call answering, and play/pause. The bass is probably some of the best I’ve heard from “pro” level ear buds, and is probably the highlight of the audio journey I took wearing these during my travel. The bluetooth connectivity is also excellent, and I noticed I didn’t lose connection at all during use (compared to others I’ve used prior). Denon really delivered with this one, and I’m hopeful you’ll give them a shot over 1st party headphones for your device. Read More

If you are looking for some of the best sounding earbuds on the market today, then be sure to check out the Denon PerL Pro True Wireless earbuds and take the time to fully customize them to your unique hearing profile and they will blow you away. Opening up the box you have a wide array of fitment options that not only include silicon and foam ear tips, a couple of wing attachments, a short USB A to C charging cable, the earbuds, and the charging case with Qi charging ability. Each earbud is very light, and the case is small and light as well. The earbuds fit snugly inside, and magnets help guide them to their charging locations. The case also has three lights to indicate the power status of each earbud and the case itself. I was able to test with phone calls and both ends are met with superior sound and the other person on the phone was impressed with how I sounded. Battery life has been fantastic as well, they are rated for 8 hours and 24 hours with the case providing additional juice. I found that my earbuds were very close to these numbers. During my initial testing, I did a lot of trial and error to find my perfect combo of ear tips and wing attachments, and it is nice that a good variety is included with these. These fit snug and comfortable in my ear and after you settle on the perfect fitment, they don’t feel like they are going to fall out of your ears, and I never felt fatigue with having them in my ears. Connecting to my phone was easy and I was also able to connect to my PC at the same time, so they support muti-point connections which is another big plus for these. Switching between music on my Pc and a phone call was simple and seamless. Tap control controls are available and customizable via the Denon app. Single, double, triple and a double tap and hold for each side. You can set any of these up with how you want them such as a single tap on the right for volume up, double tap on the left for prev track, etc. When you first launch the app, it walks you through personalizing the earbuds for how your ears are and how you actually hear things. After a few minutes, it will generate a series of tones (using adaptive acoustic technology) and configure things for you. I recommend doing this a few times and create a few different profiles to try things out. It’s a neat process and it seems to really make it sound better for your ears. I have had quite a few sets of earbuds over the years and these are by far the best sounding, best fitting, and best app that I have used. Read More

For starters, these earbuds are as big as they look on the out facing side. There’s nothing “discrete” about them, which isn’t a negative! One of my complaints with other brands is that they were on the verge of being too small for any real functionality, plus I often dropped them. The actual tip that goes in the ear is a standard size and is extremely comfortable. Most units come with 3 different size ear tips, but Denon includes 4 different sizes ranging XS to L and a foam set. Also included are two different sized wing attachments for a secure fit.\n\nThe stated battery life which seems to be spot on is 8 hours, with an extra 24 hours available via the storage case which charges via the included USB-C cable and can also charge wirelessly. Two devices can be connected at once, and either earbud will work independently if you like to switch to extend battery life. The earbuds are marketed as sweat resistant so should be good for most workouts that don’t involve actual water.\n\nThere is an accompanying app, but you must have both earbuds in to use it. The app allows for multiple user profiles, which is important once you personalize the sound response. When you start the app, it will do a test to determine whether you have selected the right ear tips for a good fit. It will play sound and picks up the feedback via the 8 included microphones to determine the fit. Once done it then does a hearing test to measure the range you can hear in each ear and set the personalized audio profile including the EQ settings accordingly. But there’s also the option for manual controls. The app allows you to customize the “tap” controls on the earbuds, which include the standard expected options. You can also control the Adaptive noise cancelling, immersive base and a social mode that allows you to hear outside sounds for office or other environments where needed. I was very impressed with the additional “immersive base” option! It made it sound like you were in the room with the sound source!\n\nThe only thing I would change about these earbuds is related to the case design. Given how flat the tops are, how flush they fit in the case and the power of the magnets holding them in…I wish the indent to remove them was a bit deeper.

Let's get right to it. Denon is well known for making very premium speakers. Great sound ands coordination between the family with pairing. Now you have to know how excited I was to get the opportunity to get my hands on these PerL Prp true wireless buds. I was a little concerned about the sweat resistance. But good news. These are IP X4 rated. This allows me to get caught in the rain if I'm out on a morning cardio session and it starts raining along the way. Inside the box you'll be greeted with a nice sturdy case ( housing the earbuds) a short charging cable( Type C) some ear wing tips for a more solid fit when you're getter really active and a few different sized gummies to proprely fit your lobe size. The small charging cable isn't such a deal-breaker here. Because the case can also be charged wirelessly. I love that feature in a pair of bluetooth. At first glance, these earbuds look huge. But after taking them out and having a good look, they are quite fashionable. And aren't as big as they look. Very comfortable to wear while running on the treadmill and pretty solidly in place while I lift heavy. Yes. My lobes flex when I lift.The Denon app is easy to use and you can set up to 3 sound profiles in it for defferent occasions. The ANC is really good I feel immersed in my music when they're in.These things will talk to you also. So you'll have a new friend in your head. Lol! Collaborating them allows the earbuds to lear how you hear your music so you can the best sound per bud. That's a lot in this package. I love these things. They are my new favorite true wireless buds. With up to 24 hours of listening in the box and 8 hours per charge, you can't go wrong here. Get em. Read More

I am an audiophile and have been for over 20 years; I typically focus on large-scale speaker setups (Currently have 5 Setups, including a custom-made horn-based one) due to no over-the-ear or in-ear headphones sounding even close. Well, that is no longer the case. I have used the technology in these earbuds for years, ever since I received a prototype unit of the Nuraphones many years ago from the company that was purchased by Denon to make these earbuds. Adaptive hearing technology has always been amazing and allows you to hear music in a neutral format, but it was far from an audiophile, and all of the other products released after the original were subpar and had many technical issues. Now that these have been released under the Denon Brand and have their support, I have not seen any significant bugs, just sweet, sweet sound. The simulated sound stage is amazing for IEM; the adaptive hearing technology has impressed everyone who has put them on, the battery life is fantastic, the clarity of the music is great, the music has great life to it, and BEST OF ALL THE ANC (Noise Canceling) IS EXTREME! The Noise Canceling has to be the best-unexpected feature as it makes you feel like you are sitting in a listening room even while you walk your dog on a busy street; no issues with wind, no odd noises, and it truly is perfect enough that your wife could be in the same room yelling to get your attention and you can't hear a word of it (dangerous do not try at home!) LONG STORY SHORT! THEY ARE WORTH EVERY PENNY! BUY THEM NOW! IF YOU TRULY LOVE MUSIC THESE ARE THE ONES FOR YOU! (If you have any questions about them, ask away) Read More

Ear bud is the size of a quater and It is hard to get a good fit.\nThe sound is mediocre at best, very disappointed.
