I bought these a month ago... thought hey were too bright.. too harsh.... So I sent them back.I was WRONG !I bought them again after trying other makes, Beyer dynamic, Bowers and Wilkins, Quad of a similar price.These are definitely better.. Build quality is amazing and most importantly sound is brilliant.You need to use a good source.. I use the Chord Hugo 2...But sound quality is so subjective, so give them a listen. If soft smooth sound is your thing... forget it.If you love detail, attack and speed. These are for you... Drum attack is stunning. Like I say.. give them a try... its the only way with Hifi. You need to listen.

Good build quality, owned for a year and still like new. Comfortable earpads. Very good sound, balanced. Respectable sound stage and instrument placement.

Very clean and precise sound. Nice sound stage and expression of instruments and vocals (I listen mainly to Rock). But they were a little too 'bright' for my ears.I preferred the Beyerdynamic DT 1990 Pro in comparison. Returned.

These are some of the cleanest sounding headphones I've had the pleasure of listening to. As 'Audiophile' headphones they feel unsurprisingly lacking in bass but in the case of these headphones this isn't a hindrance. These are the cleanest sounding pair of headphones I've heard, though I'm not an audiophile by any means. The one massive complaint to be made is the LEMO connectors, as one is permanently stuck prompting a return.
