> 24 hourI replaced an old Sennheiser HD540 Reference headphone with these, hoping that they would have a similar frequency response. They dont. The sound quality is good, but they have an emphasis in the low-mid range that gives a muddiness to much of current popular music. Other types of music might sound fine. I wouldnt describe these as being bassy - its not a nice clear bass - just muddy.

> 24 hourThe first thing I noticed when I unboxed these and put them on was how comfortable they are. The over ear cups seal well even with my glasses on, yet dont smash the frame into my head.

> 24 hourThey leak an awful lot, even for open-back headphones. If youre playing an online game, make sure to turn your mic sensitivity up all the way because otherwise, the music youre listening to will definitely leak into it.

> 24 hourI am using these with a Nord Grand, particularly for the reproduction of the sound of the acoustic pianos. These headphones do a perfect job!

> 24 hourGekauft als Headsetersatz, leider bin ich recht schnell draufgekommen das mein Kabel mit Mikrofon nicht passt da diese Kopfhörer, wie auf dem Foto zu sehen, einen recht eigenwilligen Stecker haben. Der Sound der Kopfhörer gefällt mir aber so gut das ich es trotzdem behalten werde. Immerhin ist es schön verarbeitet und vielleicht gibt es von dieser Firma ja auch ein passendes Kabel mit Mikrofon. Mir hat auch gefallen das es 50 Ω hat, eines der wenigen. Der Vorgänger den ich hatte (Kabelbruch, andere Firma) hatte um die 40 Ω also nicht die Welt, der Unterschied. Kaufkriterium war unter anderem auch die Farben, ich finds wirklich schick.

> 24 hourI was about to buy these for 329$CAD before tax but I paid 177$CAD for a previously owned pair which was supposed to have small visual damages. Turns out it was brand new and the quality is there. I mean they are Sennheiser after all. This is my first time buying a decent pair of headphones and to give context, I was using small 10$ish/pair of Samsung earbuds so this is a major upgrade for me. 10/10 Would recommend for audiophiles who want a good pair of entry level headphones, I say entry level as top quality audiophile headphones go for 800$+.
