Good Headphones If You Like Bass

Overall:

These headphones look REALLY good and they come with a snazzy package with a case and adapters so at first glance everything seems great. But once I plugged them in I was immediately disappointed. I have three words to descibe these headphones....bass, bass, and BASS! What little mids that exist are VERY harsh and the highs are NON exisitent. My headphones from Wal-Mart have better dynamics than these things. Now if you are into rap and things that sound good with a lot of bass you are in luck...they BUMP like nobodies bitness. But I was hoping to use these in my studio where I record a lot of Blues/Rock and Country. I will probably continue to use my other headphones and purchase some better ones later.

I bought these cause I wanted some nice headphones for reasonable price and at first they worked great until the right side started to "buzz" at most frequencies probably within the first month of having them. I need to call American Audio to try and get them RMA'd. I like the design and they are comfortable. I like the flexibilty so i'd really like to get them replaced and hopefully have them stay clean enough for a bit longer. In the mean time, I bought the Shure SRH440 and they are doing great. I guess you get what you pay for in the long run, but it might also be a matter of luck.

These are an amazing bargain.     I've ordered another pair in case I lose these.

These headphones have a high power rating and sound good across the board.     They fold up, have a bag, a high-quality coiled cord, and two 1/4" to 1/8" adapters - one is normal and the other is the 90 degree type.

 

The highs aren't super piercing which is good for my hearing, the bass is nice and clear without overpowering everything else.

Like many headphones twice their price, they are constructed of plastic so they shouldn't be thrown around.     They should be fine with normal use, since unlike some expensive headhphones I've owned, they have the thin metal strip inside the plastic across the headband.

 

The sound isolation is quite good, I work better with a small amount of leakage than in dead quiet.     These suit me perfectly.

Again, I've paid over twice as much for a "high-end" brand that didn't measure up to these.
