Haven't had much of a chance to use them , so far sAudioo good. Thank you Stone and Jason for your help. Some what out of the loop of new products as the old headphones were over 20 years old.

Original cord is short

None

Hands down an amazing set of headphones, no doubt about it. Compared them to a huge rack of competitors at my local music store. By far the best sound for me... bass is there and it's tight but not overwhelming, mid is warm and clean, highs break through nicely.

Good Bass; Good Value; Great Sound; Stylish

Uncomfortable

Great sound, voice and instrument are very clear (monitor). Bass not too much, enough for my liking. Comfort is top notch for me. Wore it for couple of hours did not hurt my ears at all.
