My box was partly crushed during transit with DHL. I took a deep breath when I unboxed the headphones. Phew.

I choosed regular post then the box was perfect,so extra fast shipping means you get it fast but damaged?

Yes. Punching and bouncing the box cost extra.

Mine were delivered today through DHL in 4 working days. The box is in good condition due to lot of bubble wrap around it. 
 
First impression: I am hugely impressed by these cans. Based on reviews, I was expecting something better in sound quality at this price point but it is far far better in terms of transparency, soundstage and handling different genres of music. The packaging is excellent. Kudos to Takstar for offering this product around $35.   
 
At another level, it also reveals how non-Chinese HP companies are ripping off consumers by charging a much higher price for their products which are mostly manufactured in China at an extremely low price. No wonder, most leading HP companies have shifted their manufacturing base to China but the benefits of low production costs have not been substantially transferred to consumers.

What is your head-fi setup for the HI2050? What file formats do you listen.

 

[shyamelge]

I have Asus Essence One Dac cum Amp which is attached to Minix X8 media player.
 
I usually listen to Flac and HD files.

Anyone know where to buy takstar hi 2050 in usa. Amazon seller take lot of time to delivery to USA..

 

[Gino]

The units ship form China. If you choose "free" shipping that will take a while. DHL takes under a week.

 

[Anu kharmate]

Yup you are right but DHL takes twice amount of the hi2050..

What's up ladies and gentleman, just bought a pair of the HI 2050 and they are now my favorite set of cans. I own a pair of JVC SZ 1000, Beats studio 2nd gen, Brainwavz hm5, and the Takstar destroyed them all. I'm new to the audiophile game but I cannot say enough about these, watching TV or movies or gaming these are crazy good sounding. I only paid $39 for these and they sound like $200 cans. Listen I'm not an expert far from it but I think I can hear pretty good and these cans are killer, next stop the Takstar Pro 80, forgot to add they sound even better driven by my desk top Fiio E09K Desk Top amp. Peace

I can relate to you. Even after buying an HE400S I still go back and enjoy the HI 2050. I really like the treble on this one. They sound fantastic hooked up to my HTC One M8. Spotify sounded so good.

Just received my pair today and wanted to post my thoughts on here. Usually it takes me a few days (at least) before reaching a conclusion on any headphone i buy, but not with these. They don't even need a top amp to sound good, they are astonishing. I actually prefer them to my Akg k702's...and that's saying something.
