Can you briefly describe how these sound?
Click to expand...
Sure. They're really nice sounding cans. The horn-loaded drivers are interesting, makes for a pretty bassy presentation, but without the bass getting bloomy or overwhelming. The soundstage is very impressive for a closed-back headphone - not VC or Rognir levels, but really quite impressive. Same with detail retrieval - they do an excellent job, more or less on par with one of the ZMF biodynamic models (so not-Verite). They used the same technique of making a "maze" of sorts carved into the inside of the cups to make the sound take a little longer before getting back to your ears, which apparently does a nice job of simulating open-back soundstage. Separation is excellent. I did a side-by-side comparison of these vs. the LSA HP-2 (which I'm also selling... have too many closed-back cans).

They'd make a very nice all-arounder in their price range, and the standard cables and easy-to-drive portable nature of 'em is a bonus.

Construction is extraordinary. I've yet to see or feel a Kennerton headphone that isn't premium feeling through and through. I've heard them referred to as "ZMF but Russian," and I can see why.

Headband was scary for me at first, because it looks like the HE6SE V2 headband that made my brain hurt, but it's comfortable, and they're pretty light - I could listen to them for long periods of time with no issues.
