Great sound!

Reviewed by Daniel on B&H Photo Video
I've worked in film productuon for years and have tried and had several different headphones. These are among the best I've had. Good bass, luscious mids and good highs. For the price you're not likely to find better sounding cans. The velvet-like pads are really comfy too.

Bought 12/2021 for light office use. For the price these sound great, but after a year my left earcup has almost entirely faded out. Have gotten 0 response when contacting manufacturer support.

I broke and old favorite pair of headphones and needed a replacement, but I didn't want to spend a mint-ton. The sound of the semi-open headphones gave me great sound and ability to hear the details for the fine-tune editing I do. Surprisingly good for the price!

I use these to practice with my electric cello so I dont disturb the neighbors. I wasnt expecting much from them with the low price, but was pleasantly surprised. They are also very comfortable.
Perfect For the Studio!

Specifically designed for studio use, these are the perfect studio headphones! Light weight, semi-open so you don't have to keep taking them off and putting them back on to listen to the production and carry on an in-person discussion. YES!

Wow!

Reviewed by Kyle M. on Reverb
Insane headphones for the price, super fine detailed, well balanced. The build does feel a little cheap but nothing feels like it will break easy. My advice to anybody who buys is purchase nice replacement ear pads and then they are perfect.

For the price, I am amazed at the soundscape it delivers. Not the most comfortable to wear for long durations, but good considering the price.

Great for price class

For its price class it's great headphones. Good dynamic range. Long cable. Light. But cable is not weighty and pliable like high end. Open headphones still not totally airy. Dynamic range favors high end more than low end.
Great Sound...

Great sound for the price. Much better natural sound than with closed-back headphones.

Reviewed by Craig on B&H Photo Video
Very similar to AKG 240 headphones, with better earpads. Overall pretty balanced, but with a fairly forward mid 2kHz range so not totally flat. But fun to listen to, and VERY comfortable for long periods. Great value.
They do the job well.

I have many, many years experience in recording studios and home recording and mixing and these will get the job done quite well at a minimal cost. Use what you save on promoting your music.
Good, Solid Studio Cans!

These have nice, clean, uncolored sound. I use them as I edit video in Premiere Pro. They are comfortable for me, and I can listen to them for a long time without getting fatigued. I will buy a second pair for use with my mixing board.

Bought these after researching headphones that are good for mixing. These are inexpensive and aren't for someone looking for loudness or low end. But they don't color the sound of your tracks. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking to mix with headphones.
Super Value!

I purchased it few years ago and then decided to upgrade to more expensive 80+$ Phillips. I have underevaluated these headphones. It is excellent.

The headphones have worked great for video editing. The only thing to remember is that they are open-back so the sound can leak out. But other than that the sound is great and it was well worth the money!
Good inexpensive headphones.

Sound quality is quite good for the price. And the construction isn't bad. They look like AKG's but are not made with the same kind of quality materials, but that's OK - they are much less expensive, sound decent and are comfortable to wear.
