Rated #217 in Over-Ear

Pros: Nice sound, sound good out of everything!, Good beginners headphone, Comfort, Design, very easy to eq

Cons: Audiojack seems fragile, Voices are too upfront/close by/

I'm slowly going to add more and more to the review! The reason I make this short review is that the few info it has might be meaningfull to someone!

Still burning in, somehow and without noticing it first the voices became very much in your face. Still checking whether gear makes a difference. They also started to sound less closed later on.

 

 

 

Gear:

Probably not a good match with e10.

 

Outdoor usage:

 

These are NOT an outdoor headphone. I'm probably still going to use it as one in the summer. 

A) These are open (Duh)

B) The headband elastic things make a little bit of noise when walking.

C) If it's windy the wind makes a load sound because of the grill on the sides. This is were it gets impossible to use.

D) even if you walk too fast you'll hear the wind. Riding a bike or anything else can't be done either.

 

They are still usable for a nice stroll in the sun! (god I hope that isn't far from now, damn cold!) Easy to drive so no need for huge amps. Sounds surprisingly good out of my phone, even without my e5. short cables are relatively cheap. You can get a v-moda cable for around $12.
