Been using them for a couple of years now. Extremely good build quality. Not that much bass though. That's the biggest downside for me. I don't have too much reference material, but they have served me really well the past 3 years.

They're great though

this is just people posting headphones
there is no discussion or dialogue here
>>
>>61893283
This was the most suggested headphone before the m50's, it was the ath-7/900's before that.

They are good for the price, but lack on pretty much on fronts but thats to be expected.

Also, the band is fucking xbox huge and they look goofy on the head.

welcome to 4chan, where when the shitposting finally stops no one has anything of value to discuss

>>61893946
And I agree. But its not like shit doesn't happen in every thread or the internet as a whole.

People dont want discussions on things, they want echo chambers to hear their opinions bounced back at them.
>>
>>61894001
It is good, I prefer them to the m50's by a considerable margin. However for a little more money the hd598's, and the q701's are both vastly superior.

Also, I have a kind of big head and that fucker clamps down.

This must be old... It used to be a great headphone time ago, but I'm sure it can be still considered as good as more recent headphones

what are the best headphones if you listen to a lot of shit with heavy sub-bass?
>>
>>61896015
using shit gear doesn't mean your opinions aren't valid
most of the people i talk about and play music with use S-H-I-T audio setups because they're used to cheap/mainstream electronics and have different standards; some are actually knowledgeable despite their tech illiteracy, unlike some "audiophiles" i met or talked to online
>>
>>61896449
both sides of the same coin.

noice. i've always wanted to compare those to my mdr-1rbt

Most "audiophile" culture is bullshit, but if you are using beats or skullcandy shit you are really missing part of the picture. It would be like critiquing a painting while wearing 3d glasses.
>>
>>61896924
i get what you mean, but i'm sure at some point you also enjoyed music with shitty equipment and there are many people who never get into hi fi or tech in general like you probably did
those people still listen to music and are entitled to be critical, even though they're missing out on sound quality

No, it's weird to explain, but even though there's a warm bass section, the mids and highs stay really well defined, giving you the impression of a flat response with bass.
