Is having fun with the GW100x: good but not great wirelessly, and much better wired into an iFi Hip DAC 2.

Finds the all-plastic GW100x light and fine, sounding very open, closer to AirPods with a wide soundstage than their SR60's vintage Grado sound.
Demoed their stepdad's GW100x for hours beside their SR325x and found it really impressive, the best Bluetooth sound they've heard, beating the XM4 and AirPods Max.
Their GW100x just arrived and they are tempted to return it: build isn't great and it doesn't sound much better than their XM4.
Finds the GW100x better than the HD 6XX: the bass texture is back and the highs far more alive.
Finds the GW100x great, barely different from their much pricier custom Grado, light and fairly comfy, excelling with metal and rock.
Very happy with the GW100x as a wireless replacement for their Beyerdynamic, but comfort was terrible until they replaced the earpads.
Really loves their GW100x's soundstage but the open back leaks too much for travel.
Got the GW100x as a Christmas gift and has hardly taken it off in three days; it sounds very different from the muddy original V1.
