    Everything in the product suited me, the price is generally perfect.

    Somehow 10 years ago, and with the purchase of ATH-ES7, I finally switched from AKG to Audio-Technica. Recently, in soldered / re-soldered ATH-ES7, the cable finally died, and I decided that I needed to change them in the end. As a result, I bought an ATH-MSR7b at a discount. And. these are just great headphones! The sound is very deep and clear, it is even surprising how airy it is for closed headphones. True, the emphasis is still shifted upwards and in some compositions and styles there is a

    Pros
    • + Just great sound + Excellent noise isolation + Detachable cable + Possibility of balanced connection + Very light, sit comfortably on the head, do not press, the ears do not hurt in them
    Cons
    • - There are suspicions that the plastic construction of the cups is flimsy, in the reviews for the Bluetooth version, someone broke - Could put a third cable with a microphone in the kit - Ear cushions and headband made of leatherette, although very soft, I donā€™t know how long this ā€œeco-leatherā€ will last until it starts to wear out and crack - In the summer, your ears will probably sweat a lot in these headphones - Headphones can hardly be called portable, they are not very comfortable in the street, the long tails of the cable connectors cling to clothes, for example, to the collar of a jacket, it is also not convenient to wear them around the neck due to the size and design of the cups

    What a horrible quality, wasted money for nothing.

    Purchase: 29/12/2022 Simply put, these headphones are not for those who turn their heads. I spend more than 10 hours a day at the computer, because of the specifics, I often have to turn my head (many monitors), and the headphones are connected to the computer. In short, I pulled or twisted the wire a little - a break, and inside, because. the insulation is intact, and the sound in one ear disappears. I got tired of buying a new wire every 6-9 months. None have lasted more than a year. Beforeā€¦

    Pros
    • Sound quality.
    Cons
    • The most unreliable cables in their class.

    A good product, more pros than cons.

    I took it mainly for a PC with a sound card, I tested it mainly in games. The sound at high and medium frequencies is excellent. The sound of the ocean and songs in Sea of ā€‹ā€‹Thieves is just beautiful and detailed. But unfortunately for me the bass turned out to be too weak, I tried to switch from HyperX Cloud Alpha headphones, and after them the bass is very lacking, although the sound in them is not so detailed, but the weak bass in the MSR7b was forced to stay on the old ones. (It isā€¦

    Pros
    • Excellent sound at high and medium frequencies Balanced connection Very light
    Cons
    • Bass is weak Plastic quality 1.2 meters of cable

    I actually have the older version. Except than the string, I don't think anything else has changed. Incredible quality of sound. However, you should anticipate that the cord will become sticky and the earcup and rim covering will wear away over time.

    Pros
    • Sound
    Cons
    • The high standard of leatherette construction

    Best product I have ever reviewed, I recommend it to everyone!

    I used to use Sony for 800. I don't remember the name. Climb far behind them. Source Hiby R5 Saber With its pros. Sound quality. There was a separation of instruments. Actually there is a scene. This was not the case with older headphones. 2 cables included. I've been using pentaconn since the very beginning. Case included Cons: Heavy! Active movement in them is contraindicated. I recommend using it at home: 1) if you need a good sound and do not want to sit at the computer at all 2) Forā€¦

    What you need, a cool purchase, I advise you.

    Has pros: Clear, even sound without obvious shifts and emphasis on certain frequencies, light weight of the headphones, comfortable fit, headband adjustment even for a large head. Sound isolation is excellent, low impedance is a plus if there is no amplifier for headphones. Different cons: Short meter two cords included (3.5 and 6.3 jacks), at first glance and to the touch are rather flimsy wires. If you shake your head, then there are small "cod" designs. Leather ear pads, a drawback for meā€¦

    Best thing for the money, glad I did it.

    Suitable for good music, without a sound card, I did not even try to turn it on for games I bought cheaper open Sennheiser HD 599 Some pros: Excellent sound, I didnā€™t hear better, at first they made me turn around to the sound, it turned out that the music was drawn in such detail and deceived, it didnā€™t even occur to me to turn the equalizer, everything was heard well. Good soundproofing, comfortable, not audible to others. Its cons: The closed type is still not for long-term use and gamesā€¦

    The purchase brought only positive emotions.

    If you have a previous model and if it is worn out, you can be sure that you will not regret buying these. Some pros: 1. Fantastic sound. This is a very significant revision of the previous model. Compared to it, a much clearer bass. At the same time, other frequencies were also improved. The stage got wider. 2. Headphones are light, very. 3. Price. I don't have a lot of experience in terms of listening to headphones (in terms of their number), but the only headphones that sound better thanā€¦

    Nice price, good quality.

    Some pros: The design and reliable material of the device, a very excellent sound, although inferior to the sound of the beyerdynamic DT 770 in the same price category, but this is my personal opinion. Different cons: Headphone cord! 1) Lack of a headset on the cord - does not allow using the device for talking on the phone in full (for comparison, Skullcandy Aviator has such a cord). 2) The uniqueness of the cord (jacks for connecting the headband), in the event of a cord failure, you canā€™tā€¦

    Cool product, happy with the purchase, maybe I'll buy it again.

    I am the owner of the previous model. I don't think anything has changed except for the string. The sound is amazing. But you should be prepared for the fact that over time the cord will become sticky, and the coating of the earcups and the rim will begin to disintegrate into shreds.

    Pros
    • Sound
    Cons
    • The quality of leatherette material

    The best thing Ive ever used, a great item for everyone!

    These are ears for those who understand what they want from headphones. I can not say that it is worth starting with them right away. They are light. The DX200 (amp1+amp3) is simply magical, easy, airy. Well, itā€™s really very tasty with ā€œsournessā€ because of the twisted tops). The resolution is not the highest I've heard, but sufficient today. These are not monitors, they are not suitable for mastering, only for getting high from music, and they do an excellent job with this task. Comfortableā€¦

    Pros
    • Airiness, a wide stage, musical, very tasty tops. They sway easily, you can do without dacs / amps, but they open up a level higher with them. Detachable cable. The kit comes with 4.4 balance.
    Cons
    • In some places, not sibilants, of course, but "clatter" is heard where it should not be due to "tuning". Itā€™s a pity there are no models to choose from with 2.5 balance (well, these are nitpicking, nevertheless there is no hole on 4.4 and there is no desire to look for or buy additional modules for the DAC either)

    Very pleased with this purchase, will recommend it to everyone!

    To begin with, I will explain for which use case and for what reasons I chose these headphones. I wanted to buy good headphones for listening to music at home. Key selection criteria: high-quality mids (I like music with an emphasis on vocals, I immediately brushed aside models sharpened for bass), a closed type with good sound insulation, a budget of no more than 15k ($200 at the exchange rate at the time of purchase). I looked at the reviews on the "mountain" of headphones, wrote out theā€¦

    Pros
    • Sound Soundproofing Comfort fit on the head Build quality Appearance
    Cons
    • Weird set of cables included Case Non-folding design The inconvenience of wearing on the neck

    The product is working, I will not repeat it for sure.

    I warn you right away: this is my complete IMHO and made without claims to global truth. Well, I gave them back. No sound. Rather, it is, as it were, but somehow artificial. Clueless at all frequencies. I was especially struck by the clinking porridge on the tops. Before that, I used ATN M40x, everything is much better there. Despite the fact that the difference in price is more than 2 times. I'm shocked myself! Of course, you need to buy a source for a pollam in order to reveal these miracleā€¦

    Pros
    • Yes, almost nothing
    Cons
    • I will describe in the comments

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    Everything in the purchase suits, a very necessary product.

    The sound went from the very first seconds, as unpacked! I listen to a recording from some kind of concert, I hear everything! Somehow I coughed in the hall, clapped my hands once, I hear the second parts of voices, and not only the part itself, but the timbre itself. All sing-alongs, undertones. I listen to old records and just wonder how much I haven't heard. I listen for hours, I can't stop. Feelings are indescribable! They are quite expensive in our city, but if I had known that they wouldā€¦

    Pros
    • Like everything!
    Cons
    • It is not clear why not to put an adapter for a large jack in the kit. Is it really that expensive. I'll have to look somewhere for a quality one. Some junk is sold in the markets in the city.

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    A really necessary purchase, I'm glad I found this product.

    And now about the bottoms. They are, I didnā€™t even think they were good (just good, no wow effect). True, I have a way to get to them through the DX200 with 3 amps on the balance on board. But does everyone have this in terms of finances and will everyone want to bother and try with other DAPs? Here is a kaine from hole 3.5, for example, and could not. Therefore, in the store it is advisable to immediately decide on the bass, either as it is from relatively any hole, or carry a dap with you and

    Pros
    • Value for money - sound. Very musical. Delicious high. You will definitely like tracks with synths, percussion, cymbals and more, a wide and airy stage for closed ears. When connected by balance, they give a jump in sound, it is worth bearing in mind. Objectively, they are not demanding on the source, although if you want to dig out the bottoms in them, this is not entirely true.
    Cons
    • Not everyone will come in, HF fobam in particular. Bassheads, too, by. The speed is still transmitted softly and at times it looks like a "click", especially when there are a lot of fast breaks.

    The best thing Ive ever used, a great item for everyone!

    Headphones from the category that are very good, the sound covers all the shortcomings, the detail is excellent, but the realization does not come soon. I used only 2 models in this price segment, the first model was Sony mdr-1a. I bought blindly, guided by the reviews, since in my city there are not even $50 headphones. After I connected it for the first time, I was disappointed, there were many times less bass, although I thought that in mdr-1a there were not so many of them. The sound is not

    Pros
    • The sound is really good, interrupts the shortcomings, but awareness does not come immediately. Noise isolation, appearance, light, I listen with fiio x5 II generation.
    Cons
    • Corps, but more on that below. Connecting with two wires, after the 1st wire in the MDR-1a is not very convenient, they cling to the shoulder girdle, creating a sound that stopped annoying after a week or two. After six months, the left wire began to move away when bent.

    I am delighted, the product is really worthy.

    The sound is smooth, with good, tight bass. There is no extra noise. Lack of stage space. Noticeable on live recordings. The upper frequencies are not as "clean" as we would like. Noticeable on female vocals. Details are lost. This is certainly heard on good recordings. Completely versatile headphones. I use them on my computer. Connected via Asus Xonar Essence STX. Can be quickly connected to the phone. They don't creak on the head. Lungs. No pressure on the head. Not very comfortable on bigā€¦

    Pros
    • Sound quality. Ease of construction. Landing comfort.
    Cons
    • They creak a little if you start to correct them on your head.

    I definitely recommend buying, I didnt notice any disadvantages.

    Subject. opinion - ON; Professional - OFF. Don't expect sonic attacks and highly specialized terms. The sound is one of the best in its class. I also remember that 4 years ago there was the same model, but not balanced (that is, not NC, BT and b). And due to sound illiteracy (which I still suffer from) I listened through a cheap "Chinese phone" and naturally did not understand "for money". Now, having gone through a bunch of models and everything, I understand that it was not in vain that Iā€¦

    Pros
    • - The most comfortable fit; - Pleasant materials; - The sound (I speak as NOT a professional) is detailed, balanced, and a wide stage; - Shake (in my opinion) even the phone; - Strong assembly; - EQ to help.
    Cons
    • - (very strange minus) No microphone; - Creaky body (and this is not even a marriage); - Not the most comfortable fit on the neck, although there are swivel bowls (well, that's all the same); - Soundproofing also does not shine over the edge, as many reviewers say, in fact, it lets in extraneous noise.

    The quality is at the highest level, be sure to try it.

    I have in stock Sennheiser hd-25-1 II. They are about 10 years old. Over time, even the plastic has not worn out. Well, this is understandable, the class is different. The wire is strong and does not break. Comparing the sound between them and Audio-Technica. Sinhizers are a little better. But Audio-Technica also gives its good sound. Watching what to listen to and on what. Tested on a fiio M7 player and an Audio-Technica at-lp 5x turntable, together with a Sony amplifier. Of course, the soundā€¦

    Pros
    • Comfort on the head. The spine does not press. The ear pads don't put pressure on your ears either. Height adjustment is fixed normally. The quality of the material, I would not say that it is good (very easily soiled). Let's see what happens after a month of use. The sound is quite extended (for my ears), lows, mids and highs are heard well. Everyone has their own ear, everyone will sound differently.
    Cons
    • Margin of plastic. The cord is too soft. Which may be followed by a break in the future.

    Great headphones for the money

    These are impressive headphones - their strengths are comfort and clarity and the soundstage is more than good. I was afraid I'd have to spend a lot more to get satisfactory sound in closed headphones, so they were a pleasant surprise at a bargain price; More details will follow for those interested. I use these headphones exclusively at home, hooked up to a dedicated headphone amp, and mostly listen to CD quality classical music. This is probably not the purpose for which they were designedā€¦

    Pros
    • Frequency response 15-20,000 Hz and impedance 16 ohms
    Cons
    • Ratio set
