  • Better than Bose. Blown away!
Style: Headphone
There are three things you need to know about me: I have sensitive hearing, love bass, and I'm a huge Bose fan. These headphones are better than my Bose home speakers! Got these puppies today, plugged them in, and queued up Charles Mingus' "Haitian Fight Song." (Which, imo, is the ultimate test of any audio equipment. If you can hear Mingus doing his thang in the background without the trumpet blasting your ears off, you've got good stuff!) These headphones performed admirably; I heard stuff (like string noise) that I had never heard before! I will admit, however, that these are flat equalized, and maybe that's the difference between headphones and monitors? At any rate, MOAR BASS. So I loaded up some Type O Negative. Beautiful, beautiful, sublime and clear sound, but the bass was once again in the background, not front and center like I'm used to. So, if you're a bass nerd, you might want to EQ these to your liking. Pros: Sounds like they should cost WAY more than they do, no distortion at high (>80%) volume, super lightweight, and comfortable on my kid-sized head. Cons: Might need an equalizer if you're not happy with the flat EQ. Literally, that's my only con. ... show more

  • High Quality (better than some $$$ ones), Sturdy, Comfortable
Style: Headphone
I recently purchased these headphones, which exceeded my expectations regarding sturdiness, comfort, and overall quality. From the moment I unboxed them, I could tell they were built to last. Sometimes, a simple design is the best! I have gone through at least ten other expensive headphones, including Beats, Bose, Sony, etc., but I was never satisfied with Bluetooth or the ones with a cable. The materials used here feel premium. I have accidentally dropped them a couple of times, and they showed no signs of damage. When it comes to comfort, these headphones truly shine. The ear cushions are plush and soft, perfect for long listening sessions without discomfort. I often wear them for hours while working or relaxing, and I never experience any fatigue. The adjustable headband ensures a snug fit without being too tight, which is often a struggle with other headphones. The sound quality is simply fantastic. The clarity and depth of the audio elevate my listening experience. They are effective for noise canceling. It comes with a neat pouch to store it. I removed the original adapter and attached it to an iPhone adapter I purchased from Amazon, and it works perfectly. Overall, I highly recommend these headphones to anyone searching for a sturdy, comfortable, and high-quality (with a budget) option. They represent excellent value for the price. ... show more

  • One of the Best Pairs of Budget Headphones You'll Own
Style: Headphone
Since everything has already been said about these that can be said, these are some of the nicest headphones you can get for the price. The headphones themselves are a very sleek black design and are a nice matte black finish rather than the piano black that most companies love to use. The build quality is top notch and being able to fold them makes it great for traveling if that's what you're looking for. The noise isolation is not too bad either. I only use these in my room but was looking for a pair of heapdhones that had some decent noise isolation. If my regular hearing is 100%, while wearing these and not listening to anything, I'd say it lowers what I can hear to the 50-60% range so roughly half of the normal ambient noise volume. If you're listening to something even on low volume, you cannot hear anything else outside of the headphones. I also briefly tested noise leak with other people in the room and to my surprise they could hear nothing until the volume was close to 100%. Of course this volume level is different for everyone but that's 100% with Realtek HD audio drivers on a Windows 7 machine which gets extremely loud. I normally use 20-30% for reference. The ear cups fit very close to actually laying over my ears but they fit, making them closed. As for the sound quality, it's always hard to describe exactly "how" something sounds. The easiest way to put it is these sound the way you expect audio to sound. If you aren't an extreme audiophile or know exactly what something should sound like, these headphones will be even better. One thing that may give you an issue is the tightness of these headphones. I came from using JVC HA RX700's which are an equally great pair of headphones. The main issue with those is the break in time. The ATH M30x's take nowhere near as long to break in, but it should be noted that it may take you a few days to a few weeks to get adjusted to how they feel. After you stop fidgeting with them and get them to a height that works for you, sometimes you forget you're even wearing them. Comfort, quality, and sound are all present. If there was any negative I could give to these headphones its the fact that they do sit very close to my ears. If the ear cups were slightly larger it may feel a bit better, but that of course requires a complete redesign of the headphones which were built this way for a reason. Unless you have a very large head or prefer muddier quality sounding headphones such as Beats, you cannot go wrong with these. Pros: + Amazing sound quality + Great build quality, matte black finish, intriguing design + Very comfortable feeling earpads + Good sound isolation, ~50% of sound dampened Cons: - Would prefer slightly larger ear cups ... show more

  • Great entry headphones
Style: Headphone
These are great headphones for entry level djing. These headphones have really gotten me into mixing with headphones on non stop. These sound balance is decent and true but they suffer from the same issue as the Pioneer Cue1 and are a bit too quiet, they start to distort at high volume. I was disappointed with the build quality but they have lasted so far. I find myself adjusting the headband at least once per set. The wire is really long and does not detach. If you are getting into djing and are looking for a true sounding headphone I’d recommend these. For those established in djing and have a need for accurate sound but no distortion for lounger volumes I would recommend these only for studio/stream use but not club use. ... show more
