This a very warm but detailed headphone. Best on ear I ever heard.

Not so sure about ESW9a, As ESW9 owner, if you are looking technicalities and wide sound stage, ESW9 isn’t your choice.

If you are looking for intimate sound with round and warmth of Mahogany Wood that ESW9 uses, with light and nicely tailored leather headband, foldable design for portable carriages, a leather carrying case. ESW9 is a good pick. It somehow remind me of the sound of my old Sennheiser PX100 which is unfortunately deceased.

They were double that price way back. Very nice price. Not the widest soundstage by far but very warm.

Correction - these were 5 times more costly when released.
I'd snap them for 115$ without a blink.
