I´m professional live and studio engineer and i bought these one to try out if these could replace my trusty MDR-7506:s that are coming to the end of their lifespan.   Im always looking good and flat and detailed overallresponce, that is true to original signal and not hyped at any way. I also need headphones that are sturdy, comfy and dampens outside well.
