Hi,
 
Does anyone has any experience with this headphone. I couldn't find anything about them in English.

For anyone who is curious, I made a video review about these cans:
 

 
The long and short of it is that I have no idea how the cable on this headphone passed product testing. It is truly a ghastly tangly mess.
 
If you can find it in your heart to forgive the terrible cable you may or may not like the mid-forward sound. While staying in the general region of 'neutral', the MT120 rolls off the bass and treble a little and leaves a mid-band emphasis that brings vocals forward but honestly sounds a little off to me for instruments like guitars - everything sounds a little rubbery and dull in timbre. Then again, I don't like the K701 for kind of the same reason and a lot of people like those, so YMMV.
 
Otherwise it seems like the MT220 might be the better choice from what I've read so far. (I haven't heard it myself).
