Visit the store; it's an experience only nerds would appreciate. The headphones were on sale for $[$]off original price. Great customer service at B&H. The girl was so nice and really knew all the technical specs of the headphones I was looking for.

So I was looking to pick up so new hi-end headphones... did my research on the blogs/cnet/etc... these came highly recommended so I gave it a shot. 2 words... "Holy Moly!" these things sounds amazing.

There comes a time when one realises that sound quality is not about bass quantity, and you start to search for clear, undistorted sound.

Great build quality; beautiful detailed sound; well controlled bass with no mids bleed in; detachable cable (3 included); easy to drive

Treble may be uncomfortable for some; shallow pads; headband could use more padding; may ruin all other headphones for you

With a new-and-improved version already announced and arriving on store shelves any day now, the original Audio Technica ATH-MSR7 may be looking a little dated. But thanks to some stellar performance, this $249 headphone's popularity is still holding strong.

"I bought these earphones for work because my workplace can be noisy and I need to really focus. They work as noise cancelling -- almost blocking completely, so in that sense I got exactly what I was looking for. Very good sound quality for music as well. Got them on sale here at an excellent price.

The Audio-Technica ATH-MSR7 are serious headphones designed primarily for portable use. While they're positioned as being the perfect accompaniment for Hi-Res Audio files, we think they're something even better.

Excellent balanced sound; Very comfy for long sessions; Handy removable cable

A tiny bit creak-prone

I call these headphones, "The Truth"! They are very precise and detailed! These are the best headphones I've ever owned for critical listening! Very Nice!

Tried a few different sets before settling for these. For the money they shine well above their near rivals.
