AIAIAI TMA-2 Studio Wireless+

I bought them for one purpose, to use while streaming live music on Twitch. I've had them for 2 and a half months now.

They are quite pricey. They deliver what I bought them for, but for the money I would have hoped for better sound. But in terms of low-latency live music creation, there is no competitor.

The only alternative is a combination of wireless IEM system and in-ear headphones used on stage. That combination is close to the price of these headphones, and you still have cables from your ears to the receiver which you have to attach to yourself. These are just headphones you put on and off, no cables. Saves me a lot of hassle when I take a bathroom break while streaming for hours.

The feeling of freedom from cables is unprecedented. I can move around, switch instruments with ease, and no longer have a cable around my body. I love it!!!

I create music with lots of live looping with Boss RC-505. The headphone transmitter is plugged into the headphone jack of Scarlett Focusrite 2i2 for monitoring. I haven't noticed any latency problems. In this regard the headphones are perfect.

However, I was disappointed with the sound. I checked and my modular pieces are the highest quality they offer. I was going to buy an upgrade if they offered one!

I had these Lewitz HP710 headphones before, and they delivered a much larger soundstage and more volume. I had gotten used to a particular way my voice sounded in my ears when singing. It had more depth and detail, and it allowed me better vocal control. In comparison, the AIAIAI were small, quiet and I was barely able to register what's going on. It was a huge uncomfortable adjustment that took me a while. I always have to keep the monitoring volume high.

Now that I've gotten used to them, it's fine. I can sing without discomfort. But it makes me wonder what I am losing out on, and for this price that's a disappointment.

There's the possibility that my previous headphones were too loud and I think it might've been affecting some hearing loss (ringing in ears after use). So in that regard maybe this is a good change.

They are quite comfortable to wear for hours. Even more comfortable than my Valco VMK25 (but with worse sound and no ANC). Battery life is also decent.

I would still recommend these for live streaming use, even with my complaints about sound and price. Freedom from cables is just so good. I wish they'd offer upgrades for better sound.

I recently had the pleasure of using the AIAIAI TMA-2 Studio Wireless+ headphones, and they exceeded my expectations in every way. The standout feature is undoubtedly the Wireless+ technology, which provides an incredibly stable and high-quality audio experience without the hassle of cords. This makes them perfect for both professional studio work and casual listening.

The modular design is another brilliant aspect of these headphones. It allows for easy customization and upgrades, ensuring that the headphones can adapt to various needs and preferences over time. The comfort level is exceptional, thanks to the memory foam cushions that provide a snug yet gentle fit, ideal for extended use without causing discomfort.

Sound quality is where the TMA-2 Studio Wireless+ truly shines. The audio is clear, well-balanced, and rich across all frequencies. Whether I'm mixing tracks or enjoying my favorite music, the headphones deliver an immersive and accurate sound experience.

Additionally, the battery life is impressive, allowing for extended wireless use without frequent recharging. The build quality is robust, with high-quality materials that feel durable and premium.

Overall, the AIAIAI TMA-2 Studio Wireless+ headphones are an excellent investment for anyone seeking top-tier audio performance, comfort, and versatility. They have quickly become my go-to choice for both professional and personal use.

The (very few) cons :

- the on/off system is long
- the transmitter is heavy
- the transport bag is fit for the accessories but too cheap for the headphones
- ports are not easy to reach

The (many) pros :

- latency is still there but it’s still an impressive fit
- feels sturdy
- modularity means future proof and with a long life span
- sound is good enough for creative sessions
- the headphones are more comfy than my AirPods Max
- putting the headphones together and pairing them with the transmitter was a 5min job
- charging is easy and battery life are amazing

Highly recommended. 25+ years in the audio realm and these are central to me 5 minutes after unpacking.
Freeing.
