I just started listing about 1/2 hour ago after letting them play on their own for about an hour. Got them at lunch on sale for $150.
I would say they are safe. I don't find much annoying about them. Treble is not bothersome. Bass is present and a bit strong but that is ok for the volume I listen to because at low volume the bass needs a bit of a boost. Might be too much though. Not sure yet. The mids are fine I guess. Nothing to get real excited about though. Build quality seems good. The sound stage seems a bit closed in and not very wide.
This is one of my first pair of closed HP and I am not sure I like it. It is very quite and I can not hear my typing, which is a bit odd, like I have shooting or work muffs on. And my ears are getting hot. I think I like open headphones better. The comfort is not bad but could be a bit looser and the ear pads could be bigger, but I have a big head so these would be ok for others.
Not sure if I will keep them. Will give them more time. Might keep them just to have a closed back pair. There is nothing glaringly wrong with them. I was looking at the open back K701Q which I read are the same as the K701 which cost more. Or they had the K553 for about the same price, but those are closed too. I am going to compare these to my HD598 next over the weekend.
