Sorry if it's a dumb question, but are they closed back? I'm curious to know if they're as promising as they look.

Yes, they are closed back. They sound pretty good if you like natural bright signature. If you're looking for strong bass, the M50x or the old M50 have more bass.
SoundMagic is OEM manufacturer of a lot of Beyer drivers, except for Tesla ones.
Thanks for the info! I like my SoundMagic HP100 And plan to re-cable later when I have time.
In my schedule, I have to post Brainwavz AP001 review first, after that MSR7 review. Hopefully I can post it close to the launch date (14 Nov).
So many toys, so little time
Tell me about it I'm overloaded with headphones and speakers reviews on top of all the phone cases, screen protectors, and ext battery reviews I write/post on xda-developers... That's a price to pay with a review hobby that sometime feels like a part time job lol!!!

Sounds like a better MDR-1R? Wonder how the newer MDR-1A compares.
I don't have MDR-1R / A, will try to get a loan and compare them.
MSR has the audio technica house sound, the mild emphasize on upper mid to bring the midrange a bit forward. Quite different than the Sony house sound which is usually towards warm and intimate sound. If you like clarity, most probably MSR7 is the better choice. But if you like warm sound, most probably the Sony is the better choice. Depends on personal preference, not which one is better or worst.
