TechPowerUp

Excellent value for money
Very well tuned, on par with many flagship open-back headphones
Great synergy with different music genres, including R&B, Classical, and Orchestral music
Strong in the mids, plays well with most vocals
Good tonal separation between instruments
Scales up or down fairly well with EQ, especially for bass response
Imaging is quite good, albeit mostly in the front
Fairly easy to drive off most desktop sources
360° vertical ear cup swivel and extensive height-adjustment steps
Good customer service, which was tested privately
Detachable cable connectors

Build quality can feel wanting
Technical performance is mediocre in general
Ultimately not a very detailed set
Ear cups have no horizontal swivel, which can affect fit and seal
Upper mids can come off artificially bright, while bass extension is weak

Trusted Reviews

Excellent value
Great imaging
Sound has real depth and height

Lacks a little bite in the mid-treble
Open-back design is not suitable for plenty of situations
Sub-bass can seem a little timid

RTings

Very comfortable fit.
Consistent audio delivery.
Wide, spacious, and natural passive soundstage.

Dip in the high-mid to low-treble weakens and veils vocals and lead instruments.

Headphonesty

Good build quality for the price
Comfortable
Good layering and separation
Good imaging
Near-neutral tuning works well with most genres
Class-leading resolution
Mods improve the sound further, driver handles EQ well

Cable has poor ergonomics
Sub-bass roll-off
Upper-treble can get fatiguing, with noticeable planar timbre
Some hollow-ness in the midrange (fixable via mods or EQ)
Narrow staging
Need a decent amp to shine
