The quality is at the highest level, be sure to try it.

good ears, of course it would be desirable to compare with something, but in my city of Hong Kong there are no normal stores where you can compare and listen to something . I bought it on reviews from the forums)) Its pros: for me - a very honest sound, without exaggeration, unlike simple headphones, you just need to get used to an honest sound)) I knew for a long time that I needed to warm up all new audio equipment, but did not attach any importance to this . somehow I came home from work…

Everything is fine, there are only minor drawbacks.

Headphones are worth the money, in terms of sound, but not in quality and reliability. Ears are best used only at home, and carefully, otherwise the plastic fasteners will burst. Some pros: 1. Sound. One of the best in its segment when I bought (2022.) 2. Long twisted wire. Convenient to use Has cons: 1. Bad plastic in the body, and terrible leatherette in the headband. 2. Fragile, the plastic fastening of the frame with cups to the rim crumbled during the year. 3. Expensive spare parts…

I'm very happy, it really is worth buying.

Use with a high-quality sound card is recommended; I had great results with the Creative Sound Blasterx G6 included in this package. In video games, you can hear every single footstep and whisper. Absolutely necessary.

Pros
  • Rarely do headphones have such natural-sounding bass; otherwise, it is either artificially amplified or completely absent. The audio quality is excellent, allowing you to hear every nuance. Perfect for any musical task, including composing and editing. Since these are open-back headphones, you won't have any trouble hearing any incoming calls or shouts. Also, you won't feel any tightness or discomfort when wearing them, making them ideal for long periods of sitting (at least half a day) without discomfort.

The quality is top notch, be sure to try it.

Before I bought them, I worked for more than two years in regular Philips for $20, so the price difference between them and these was a significant factor in my decision to buy them. I am very pleased with the purchase. I considered taking the DT 770, but it turned out to be for the best that I went outside to buy these because it will make my head feel less fatigued.

I am amazed! It was definitely worth the money!

Has pros: Excellent sound. They are quite plush and comfortable, and you could easily sit in them all day. With these drawbacks: The non-removable wire is, in my opinion, the assembly's (or rather the design's) most significant flaw.

Wonderful quality, one hundred percent satisfied!

Taking into consideration the AKG K712 Pro. According to my opinion, several headphones. There are perks and drawbacks to living here as well as there. The Bayers were fun to see. You most likely need to take into account the impedance in this situation. In my situation, I'm considering purchasing a preamp.

I would definitely recommend the purchase, I don't think there is anything wrong with it.

The best headphones ever are headphones. But before purchasing this model, you should be aware of the following: 1. High-impedance headphones, meaning that the sound will be very weak if you connect them to a computer, laptop, or smartphone because built-in sound cards typically output 32 ohms, but in this case, 250 ohms. Hence, the headphones just won't move. 2. Open acoustic architecture suggests that those closest to you are aware of everything that happens to you. They are appropriate for a

Pros
  • 1. Audio caliber. 2. A snug fit around the head. 3. Presentation.

I recommend to buy, the product is of high quality.

Amplification or an external sound card is required for listening to classic rock, and you should warm up the headphones before using them because their low resistance suggests that they contain a thin wire that could easily be deformed under heavy use. The high frequencies and a slight dip in the middle prevent you from fully appreciating the classics, making instruments like the cello sound uninspired. The music isn't very enjoyable when heard through headphones, especially if the amplifier…

Pros
  • Soft ear cushions, virtually an effortless fit on the head, an open back wall, and a truly professional sound class set these headphones apart from the competition. They also have a high resistance, which keeps out listeners who like less expensive music and hence unfavorable evaluations.
Cons
  • ConsI hate the combination of metal and plastic at the ears; I also don't like that the wires stick out; you could come up with something better; the tightness of the headphones in terms of buildup; not all headphones with high resistance have a low return; one could add a few decibels in terms of flair; heavy cord; didn't use for a long period of time; can't say how quickly it breaks off at the base.

The product is of good quality, there is only one minor defect.

It makes no sense to me why the tweeter would be turned up to that level and the lower center would be ignored; how can you even call such headphones monitor headphones? Although the volume is low when used in conjunction with the Focusrite Saffire 6 USB 2.0, you should still be able to work. Nonetheless, this does not count against the headphones. If I were to mix using only them, rather than monitors, I would fail miserably. By the way, I made the decision to simulate the sound of headphones…

Pros
  • Made in Germany, the headphones have a satisfying quality both in terms of the materials they are composed of and the headphones themselves; there is nothing about which to complain. I'm fine with bottom and normal. At the very least, you are able to determine whether or not the barrel has a bottom, and in this range, I do not require any further information from the ears. Very high levels of audible clarity.
Cons
  • After giving them some time to warm up, in conjunction with the Focusrite Saffire 6 USB 2.0, I am able to say that I am unsure whether or not I would purchase them again. My sensitive hearing was immediately assaulted by the highs and upper midranges of the sound. The lower middle is lacking, most likely as a result of the treble being raised to such a high pitch. As a consequence of this, it will not be possible to experience the warmth of the sound. There is no way for you to wear headphones around your neck! Because of the pressure they apply, you won't be able to remain in this posture with the headphones on for more than one to five minutes. P. S. The sound improved once it had been warmed up for a longer period of time. The high frequencies are not as sharp, but everything else has remained the same. Because of this, the question of whether or not these ears are being "monitored" is still up in the air.
