If you primarily want high sound quality for music in a quiet setting and are okay with using a cable, the 7hz Timeless earbuds offer balanced audio at a midrange price. However, they're not ideal for workouts or travel since they lack features like sweatproof certification and active noise cancelling. The Sennheiser Momentum Sport, on the other hand, is tailored for active lifestyles with sweat and dust resistance, heart-rate and body temperature tracking, superior voice call quality, and very good active noise cancelling, making them more suitable for exercising and traveling, despite their higher price. The Sennheiser's also boast wireless convenience with a longer battery life and quick charging, but may have a slight latency, which could be noticeable in some gaming or TV scenarios. Give Feedback

Headphonesty

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."

Amelia Schwanke | January 2024
"We hadn't been expecting a new pair of dedicated sports buds but the surprise was nonetheless exciting. I got to try out the new buds at CES 2024 and while they have stayed true to delivering that "signature" Sennheiser sound, with a wide soundstage and strong sense of detail, it’s the extra wearable tech inside them that stands out to me against the best workout headphones."
