 Great treble, Awful bass December 31, 2004
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Been using my x-mas present for a week now. Totally hated these things from the start but said I'd give them a week. In that time I've come to love these things for the awesome sound they give to vocals.
Played Alison Krauss through them and it's like heaven, crisp, clean, the breathy raspy quality of her voice detail shines through. I'd only recommend these for acoustic guitar type recordings, vocals, spoken work (books on tape). There's a great spacial quality, like the headphones are further away from your ears than they really are. Very dynamic.
However, there is ABSOLUTELY NO BASS. Sounds like plastic-like thuds that don't really amount to anything. There is no depth. It's like the person singing is right there in the same room as you, it's that clear. But it's like the person with the drums is in the next room with the door closed. What's up with that? Bizzare that headphones could be so bi-polar. I would not recommend buying these to anyone. Since I can't take them back, I'll reserve them for listening to Alison.
Buy at your own risk.

Good sound, pretty comfortable. My biggest complaint would be the lack of privacy, people around you can hear what you are listening to.
