If you're looking for a more affordable option that still delivers quality sound, the 7hz Timeless earbuds might be suitable, especially since they're significantly less expensive. However, if budget is less of a concern and you prioritize premium build quality and potentially better noise cancellation, consider the Bang and Olufsen Beoplay H95 headphones. The Beoplay H95 also offers extra features like wireless connectivity with aptX Adaptive, a longer battery life, and integrated controls which the 7hz Timeless lacks. You should also consider form factor preferences: the 7hz Timeless as earbuds might be more portable, whereas the Beoplay H95 as headphones could provide better comfort and sound isolation.

Kazi Mahbub Mutakabbir | May 2023
"7Hz picked a bold name for the Timeless and frankly, got very close to justifying their word choice. Most importantly, the Timeless are good to go in stock form, so you don’t have to worry about source-matching and such. I can recommend the 7Hz Timeless to those who do not mind a dash of brightness up top, want a taste of planar in IEM form, and want one of the most resolving pair of earphones in the $150 - $300 price range."
