These are the first set of studio headphones i have ever bought, but although i think they are pretty solid headphones i have to admit, i am struggling to adjust to them.
I have only ever used krk monitors, but due to lack of use (becoming a dad) i sold them, and thought that a decent pair of headphones would suffice for the odd times i do a bit of writing & recording, so krk was the obvious choice.
Although i have picked up again with it all :-/
I have to say, these are super comfy, after a few minutes you feel like you don't even have them on!
The overall sound is genuinely impressive, i can pick out every fine little detail (and being the geek i am, i like to add lots of faint little details in the background) so for that, these are perfect.
The one downside is bass. I am a real stickler for it, and spend a lot of time on bass lines. But going from a pair of 8'' woofers to these is a little underwhelming (which is to be expected) but i am just really struggling to adjust.
Listening back to basslines i have made with monitors through the headphones, sometimes almost sound non-existant, especially in a full mix, but i know there is a super solid bass line there.
I will say i think this is just me though, and in time i will learn how sounds translate from headphones to real world.
Hope this doesn't come across as a bad review as the phones are far from bad, just tried to be honest.
BTW - I don't make bass heavy music, it just seems the low frequencies don't translate.
