Revainrating 4 out of 5

Well done, but I won't buy any more.

Somehow I feel strange. Until now, I used plugs (mainly for audio books) and Razer products. I hear you are already shushing me. But there's nothing to be done - addicted to bass. So that, like a fist in the face, these lower classes once and for all . And it’s strange, gentlemen: they praise the sound, unlike my Krakens, about the sound of which only one word in the reviews is “terrible”, and as if the sound really is better on Teknika, but I just can’t get rid of the thought that these basses are not enough. This is perhaps the case when, if you are used to eating Rolton, you will even become a millionaire - but you still won’t stop brewing these damn bags. Therefore: I don’t single out the advantages and disadvantages, but I will equal the Krakens, and here we get: 1. Bass is less. He is, of course, but the addict does not care if he is not there. 2. The sound itself is cleaner at times, to be honest. 3. Ears are quieter than Krakens, it’s downright unusual to turn up all the volumes to the maximum and still not get what you want. 4. I don’t understand such a construction at all, why should I make it so tricky. Well, who in their right mind would come up with the idea of ​​twisting them like that by 180? My krakens did not spin at all, and for the 4th year they have been doing well. Techniques are also doing well - 4th day. 5. I had to buy a smaller cable myself on Ali. On the other hand, it is removable, which is good news. 6. Much better jamming than Krakens. They are very good at this, which perhaps evens out some of their quietness. 7. On the tube tests above 19.5 kHz, they didn’t give out, although they stuck it here as much as 24. Nope. Everything. Very subjective, but no one claims objectivity here. In general, the ears are great.

Pros
  • The sound and quality, and they are just really good!
Cons
  • The comment below is written immediately after the purchase. But three years have passed since then, and the most important shortcomings that I can single out for this decent period are the wire (the eternal problem, on Ali I probably left the same amount for wires as for the ears) and three years later - some fear for the unreliability of the design - the right thing, which is responsible for spinning the ear, has cracked. On the one hand - cracked, on the other - three years have already passed. So it can hardly be called a minus. Yes, and I think it’s more likely that some of my students broke them, constantly carrying them, than the plastic itself burst. it’s funny to read about comparisons with razer now, of course).

The price-quality ratio is, in my opinion, one of the best.

There is a replaceable wire and jacks. The ear pads can also be replaced.
