Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
It would be very hard to get anything in this legue in any price. Two thumbs up for Sennieser.
Sound
I use 12 pairs of these in a pro studio running out of Hear Technologies digital headphone mixing systems. I would never record a session without them. Musicians always ask for them once they have used them once.
Features
Cable could be a little longer, but otherwise pretty good.
Ease of Use
These are comfortable and have really great ergonomics.
Quality
These get dropped all the time and are fine.
Value
I love 'em. We are buying 18 more for Studio B, and post rooms A and B.
Manufacturer Support
One had coffee spilt on it and they fixed them quickly and for free.
The Wow Factor
Very good looking. Nice silver and black velvet design.
