I am satisfied, the product fully corresponds to the description.

Good studio ears for working with sound. You can even work in them without software that corrects the frequency response, just keep in mind that there is not enough sub-bass in them and it will seem that you need to add more. The rise in highs is quite smooth, but it's still worth taking this into account and using references in order to check exactly how highs sound in well-mixed tracks. The rest is a classic. Comfortable, smooth, my head does not hurt, I like to listen to and make music.
: as one of the commentators wrote, the chirring began, apparently due to the ingress of hairs and debris. Parsing and a little cleaning did not give results. Maybe I'll take it apart and clean it up better. But I have not observed such things in other headphones.

Pros

- fairly flat frequency response - Comfortable, soft ear cushions - when working for a long time, the head does not hurt, the ears do not get tired (unlike closed headphones like Sennheiser Hd280) - long wire - a small amount of ohms, which will allow you to work at a comfortable volume without artifacts and even listen normally on your phone, albeit at maximum volume (unlike the 600 ohm version, where a budget sound card will not be enough, you will need an amplifier)

Cons

- the headboard adjuster doesn't look very reliable, sometimes when you take off the headphones it can fold, but it's not critical - the number of ohms, both plus and minus, at a very high volume without a good amplifier will still wheeze, but my sound card is enough for comfortable work (behringer umc404) - no replacement cable - incomplete sound isolation, but this is typical for all semi-open headphones : the chirring began six months later in the right ear, until I decided
