Customer Reviews (4.8 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Steven ★★★★★

I’ve had mine plugged in for full mixing sessions and they hold up like the studio monitors I trust, the balance is that neutral. The weight distribution is so good I forget I’m wearing them after a couple hours, which is rare for pro headphones.

David ★★★★★

The ear pads breathe just right during long sessions, so my ears don't get sweaty even after hours of critical listening. Imaging is precise enough that I can pinpoint exactly where each instrument sits in the mix, which has saved me from a few bad EQ calls.

Ava S. ★★★★★

After eight-hour mixing sessions these things still feel comfortable, and the clarity in the low end is genuinely close to my studio monitors. The build feels solid enough for daily abuse, too.
