Purchased 2018. Maybe 30-40 hours of use (infrequent). I was listening to these over the past week and they seemed virtually lifeless. No treble whatsoever. I was listening to music via iPad, hooked up via USB to a Topping D70s MQA DAC and then to a Drop AAA789 THX headphone amp. I downloaded a tone generator and started testing. These headphones had zero response above 10,000 Hz. A little possibly in the left ear, but I could hear nothing above ~9600 Hz. I then tested the same setup with an old pair of AKG 702 and could clearly hear through 16,000 Hz. The same with a pair of AKG 7XX Massdrop. I also have a pair of Audio Tecnica ADX M50s and those also reproduced sound thru to 16,000 Hz. I am thinking 16,000 Hz is my upper limit due to age, etc, but the Seinnheisers failed to reproduce any frequency above ~10,000Hz.
