If you are a serious audiophile then these arent for you.
Goods :
Cons:
When i first listened to these cans i thought they were not worth it. But after long periods of time and travel then i find these to shine in a place of their own. Their sound is subtle and not fast-paced these cans are for relaxing(as i said) and not for head banging.
Music:
pendulum - immersion 256kps VBR
metallica - discography ( cept the new things ) FLAC
chase & status- no more idols FLAC
avenged sevenfold - discography FLAC
Beethoven - symphony 5 and 9 320kps
I found that the cymbals in these metal bands are very recessed and are very picky about SQ. The cymbals are there just not as florishing as they could be.
I found the sound staging impressive to be honest i found it to be like a small recording room feel but this varies to the quality of the music .
The build quality is pretty good too with the leather and metal finish. The cable looks like it can break but a replacement from my shop costs £5-10 so that doesnt really bother me.
I also want to say that my headphone are a 54k serial number so relatively new.
OVERALL:
i would not pay the full price but for £200 i found this to be a much more reasonable price. Not for audiophiles but for travel and a welcoming, warming sound i find these superb. (love or hate sound).
EDIT:
After I recently got a new one (old one broke me being clumsy, not the headphones fault.) I found the treble to be ALOT better. Voices seem alot closer and not as far as the first version i had. Cymbals still sound a bit off but defiantly improved.
The serial number is RC 9mil series.
