Review on Bundle: Sony MDR7506 Closed Ear Headphones with Knox Gear Compact 4-Channel Stereo Headphone Amplifier - Professional, Folding Design (2 Items) by Masaaki Haruto ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Overall good, but expected more.

I have been using it for over a year as my main ears for work and listening to music. I use daily. The sound is all right, who needs details, look at the reviews. I'll talk about the shortcomings. 1. The ear pads are trimmed with some kind of thin leatherette, which, after a year of use, was simply torn to shreds and flew around. 2. The wire (the one that connects the ears) is not a wire, it's a flimsy wire. Already breathing heavily. 3. The connection wire is opposite thick and long. I would not call the latter a minus, but walking down the street with such a cable will only work if you put it in a backpack. Outcome - Lousy quality of materials and workmanship. Perhaps in native Japanese all this was better, but I doubt that now you can find something other than China. The sound is flawless, they sound as they should - they give out an honest, even sound, without artificially raised bottoms and tops. Suitable for listening to any music, speech, movies, games, radio. In general, universal ears. Despite all the advantages of the sound, I would advise those who use their ears often and do not want to change them every year and a half because they fell apart stupidly to pick up something more durable. For the price this could have been better. 4 points for sound, deuce for build quality and materials, as a result I will put 3 points. New would put a solid four.

Pros
  • Sound.
Cons
  • unreliable, flimsy design.
