    Philips Fidelio X2?!

    The main selling point for X2 is the impedance of 32 ohms. It's uncommon to see open cans rated such low. This is not the best open cans in the range, honestly. You've got better alternatives like Shure SRH1840. I think the sound quality of X2 is almost matchable with my HD600 that too with...
