AIAIAI TMA-1 Studio Engineered by Young Guru with Mic

I myself am loving these AIAIAI TMA-1's Young Guru headphones! They are extremely comfortable once you start wearing them for a while. The memory foam has superior cushioning. Both the band and the two ear cups have Japanese memory foam which cause less stress on my ears and the top of my head. Producing and mixing with these are superb! The sound is really flat and gives you the full sound the Artist wants you to hear! If you have a home studio like me, get these joints.

These are a cool design, I love how lightweight they are. Seriously like a cloud on your head. But they get slimy and don't sound too great.

Adjusting doohickey snapped when I placed it on my head. No, I am not the elephant man...

These headphones sound great and give a flat response. They are very comfortable, however, the headbands are made of some of the cheapest plastic known to man. The headband broke within one month of me receiving them, simply by me putting them on my head. If you think that's funny or unbelievable, check out their Facebook page and you will notice the comments of many other unsatisfied customers who had similar issues. I have a $25 pair of Sony headphones that are way more durable. I notified AIAIA on November 5th of my issue and they told me they wouldn't be able to replace them until the end of November when they replenished their stock. It is now the middle of December and I still have not received my replacement headphones. They even sent me an email 11 days ago instructing me to cut the cord on my headphones, rendering them useless in order for them to ship me a replacement pair. I have complied with their request, however, I have not yet received any information on when the replacement would be shipping. AIAIAI has terrible customer service and they took forever to respond. I have emailed them numerous times and I still have yet to receive any response (last correspondence was 11 days ago). For something that costs $275, I expected a much higher level of quality materials. It's unfortunate that Young Guru put his name on a sub par product and deals with a company that has such terrible customer service. I just want them to send me my replacement already so that I have not completely lost out on the money I spent but I will never purchase another product from this company again and I recommend you do not either. Buyer beware.

I've had these cans for a couple of weeks and love the feel of them on my head... No more headaches from long late night sound design sessions! Thinking of picking up a cheaper pair of AIAIAI's for dog walking. Thanks!

These headphones are fantastic, I love that they included a locking mechanism for the cord, as well as at home and a travel cord.

All good with service, factory failed.

I was really disappointed because although I am extremely meticulous and careful with headphones (I have own many many pairs and I know how fragile they are, I even wash my hands before touching them, I try to avoid any type of pressure on the cables, ear cups, headband, I always put them in their bag after using them and they never leave my room) the left ear cup broke off from the headband as soon as I tried to adjust it for the first time, that is to say 10 seconds after I touched the headphones so I returned them almost right away. A minute cheap-plastic element (which was meant to go into the holes of the headband) and a spring fell off from the left ear cup making it impossible to lock its position (in fact, I was able to remove the headband from the ear cup because nothing was holding it). I cannot really judge AIAIAI's products as it appears that mine was clearly defective but I sense that the materials are not always satisfactory, especially their plastic. However, I found the sound to be particularly good although I deplore that it had to come with such a fragile structure. One should know, however, that these are not neutral headphones. I thought that it was really pleasing to have such a detail in high frequencies and to have a nice and not overwhelming warm bass (I thought this review [...] was really detailed and fair). Furthermore, it is true that the headphones are extremely lightweight and the memory foam was really comfortable. As for the accessories, I thought that having two cables, one of them with a mic, as nice although I could only test one. However, I really doubt that the silky case which comes with these headphones can actually protect them from anything besides dust. I naively thought that a 270$ pair of headphones had to respect a certain idea of quality and implied a certain sturdiness but it seems that it is not expensive enough to be high quality. I really consider saving some money to buy a Bower & Wilkins P7 instead which is 130$ more expensive but might save me the disappointment of being broken after coming into contact with my hands and which has a better frequency response.
