  • Super comfy, short cable
Color: Black
tl;dr: Good sound, comfy, short cable, great for home/office use Background and Overall Thoughts: I've been eyeing these ever since they were announced Q3 2018, and finally bit the bullet when I saw they were in stock. These are my first over-the-ear headphone, so I can't give any meaningful sound quality comparisons, but these blow any on-the-ear out of the water. I definitely noticed a step in audio quality, and minor details come through much clearer in a range of songs and genres. The entire spectrum to me seems very "natural" and "lively," but I'm not an audiophile so take that with a grain of salt. In the Box: The box is nicely packaged and includes the headphones, 1 3.5mm cable, 1 4.4mm cable, paperwork, and a soft neoprene carrying case. Build Quality: The build is quite light, yet feels sturdy enough overall. The arms connecting the ear cups to the headband are a hard plastic, while the other components are either metal or faux leather. The cable is somewhat lacking, especially in length. Besides the short cable length, I also would have preferred a thicker cable that could take a little more abuse. The included soft case is decent, but with headphones I prefer to keep them in good condition with a hard case. Comfort: These can be used for hours and still feel great; the cups are decently larger than my ears, and the compression is minimal. They do not fall off my head when leaning all the way forward or back. Final Verdict: Overall I'm really enjoying the sound these cans produce. The build quality leads me to only recommend them for home/office use, or some light travel use when handled with care. For what it's worth, these haven't been broken in much (~20 hours), so let's hope these only get better :) ... show more

  • Excellent Headphone for the Money
Color: Gunmetal
These are impressive headphones—comfort and clarity are strong points, and soundstage is more than good enough. I feared I was going to have to spend much more to get satisfying sound in a closed-back headphone, so these have been a pleasant, bargain-priced surprise; more detail follows for those interested. I use these headphones exclusively at home, plugged into a dedicated headphone amp, and listen mostly to CD-quality classical music. That is probably not the purpose for which they were designed, given their high efficiency and short cables. But they work remarkably well in that setting. I’ve owned three pairs of headphones over the last ten years or so: the original M50s (not the current X version), AKG Q701s, and now these. I never liked the M50s, despite all the good reviews, finding the sound unengaging and the fit uncomfortable. I replaced them with Q701s, which have been wonderful, except for the sound leakage. They just don’t work for listening in a quiet room with other people. I decided to supplement them with the MSR7bs a couple of months ago, despite my bad experience with the M50s. So far so good. I would describe the sound as precise, honest, and thoroughly enjoyable. There is more detail than the Q701s, allowing individual instruments to emerge crisply. They are certainly mid- and treble-centric, but the sound (at least with my music, my equipment, and my 60+ ears) is never edgy or shrill. And the bass is fine. I was just listening to the digital remaster of Adrian Boult’s 1970 recording of Vaughn Williams’ English Folk Song Suite and noted that the timpani and bass drum in the marches are a powerful presence, as they should be. The sense of space lies somewhere between the very closed in M50s and wide-open Q701s. I find it sufficiently extended not to distract or interfere with the music. They are much more comfortable than my old M50s as well. The cables included caught me by surprise, however, both ending in small angled plugs (one 3.5mm, the other 4.4mm) with no adapter supplied. Perfect for mobile devices, but not so much for home use. I had to acquire an adapter for my amp’s ¼” connections before I could even try them (my fault for not reading carefully enough). The cables are also short, but I knew going in I’d have to use an extension. Isolation is limited, meaning I can hear much of what’s happening around me (a good thing in my view), and sound leakage is non-existent at my normal listening levels—an absolutely critical point for me. My sample does have a small pucker on the earpad seam, but I hadn’t even noticed it until I read Bullwinkle’s review and it doesn’t bother me. I will say that the ten-year old M50s, despite having more plastic, do seem to be built more robustly than the MSR7bs. ... show more

  • Good if used to earbud sound quality; not if looking for higher quality sound output.
Color: Gunmetal
I did not expect the clarity or quality of five hundred dollar headphones with this purchase. I did expect better clarity than a twenty-five dollar pair of earbuds. This is where these headphones performed poorly. First, the build quality. They are all light-weight plastic and pleather (plastic leather). This makes them comfortable out of the box and very lightweight. I appreciated that the ear cups were not huge on my head and fit nicely over my ears with a bit of room to spare. The problem with them fitting loose out of the box is that when I turned to look at a family member, after wearing them for all of two minutes, they slid off my head easily. I had not adjusted them out in any way, so this is the most snug they will get. I don't have a particularly small head. Perhaps these are geared towards someone with a larger head than average. When I purchase hats, I'm a medium to large, if that helps. I purchased both these and the Beyerdynamic DT 770 pro 80 ohm headphones as I couldn't make a decision based solely on reviews and specs. I believe I'm a bit of a novice audiophile and I was looking for headphones which would help muffle the noise of my other half's booming voice while I work on my trilogy. We have a small house, so while I understand switching to working from home during this pandemic, it means we are both in the main living space, which doubles as an office for us. I had determined to try both headphone sets, after much online research and pick my favorite, fully expecting this headphone to be the winner. I was very surprised that for an extra hundred dollars over the DT 700's, the cords with this set were much cheaper quality and I question their long term durability. The box they come in is nice, but I saw no carrying case. There was a flat pouch for the cords but if that is meant for the headphones as well, I wouldn't trust them not to fall out, as it doesn't zip or seal in any way. Now, as for sound quality; I listen to mostly blues, blues inspired rock and symphonic orchestral music. These all have a variety of instruments and pitches, which the headphones were expected to reproduce clearly. These headphones were OK with the low end (bass), but I definitely picked up on some unnatural amplification at that end...making the bass sound digitized, not soundstage or natural. The mids were where this headphone fails for me. All the mid-range sounds were muffled and synthesized sounding, more so than the bass. There was quite a bit of sibilance (hissing and smeared) in the mid-range as well. The highs were muted and unnatural. Basically, as much as I liked the light-weight and low pressure feel of these headphones on, I just couldn't get past the poor quality sound reproduction. If I hadn't ordered the Beyerdynamics at the same time, I might expect this is just what I get for spending less than five hundred. However, the BD's were one hundred dollars less, have more metal and thicker plastic cups and sound a world apart in quality of reproduction. I listened to Larkin and Poe's new album, Buddy Guy, BB King, Lord Huron, Walter Trout, Gary Hoey, Black Eyed Peas, 2 cellos, The Beatles, Beethoven, and Gov Mule as well as a few others on both headphones. In every case, the 700's were crystal clear in the mids, mostly clear in the highs (you have to be an audiophile or looking for the very slight drop) and clear in the lows, with no emphasis. With the classical symphonic, I could hear rustling and throat clearing, as well as breathing they were so clear. This may detract for some, but I appreciate feeling as if I'm in the room with the orchestra. This clarity made my blues shine anew. The AT's on the other hand, muddled every note and made the mids (a large part of blues) sibilant and hazy. I am not impressed. Perhaps these headphones are for those who listen to folk and modern rock more or perhaps those who just want artificially emphasized base notes and don't worry about clarity of the music they listen to. I can only guess. For me, these are going back and the 700's are staying. One last note, I intentionally did not purchase ANC headphones after listening to and reading dozens of reviews stating that white noise negatively impacts the sound reproduction for those who pick up on nuances. Neither of these state they are noise isolating. I expected only some ability to block out voices and was surprised when, once again, the 700's did a noticeably better job of muffling outside voices. I can't imagine true "noise isolating" headphones do any better. The pads are larger around, as the ear cups are larger. They also have slightly thicker pads. These two factors are what lead to them doing a better job of isolating my ears when in use. ... show more
