Awful unit – not representative of all models, but bad unit variance/quality control
voltra 25.01.2021
I bought these headphones for both listening to music and producing music after reading reviews of them about how they are meant to be very non-fatiguing and detailed, so they can be played at louder volumes without discomfort, as an upgrade for my Sennheiser HD600's. However, I was very disappointed by mine. The treble seemed very harsh and distorted, and the upper midrange actually had a peak around 2.8 KHz, both of which led to music getting quite uncomfortable before even reaching 25% volume on my amp. It seems as if my pair had bad harmonic distortion in the treble, as it basically sounded like harsh and unpleasant fizz in music with a lot of treble detail. Comfort-wise, they are heavy, but the weight didn't bother me at all. The headband does a good job at distributing the weight. However, the seal on the earpads did cause discomfort and pain for me due to the feeling of inequal pressure it causes. No one really mentions this, so avoid these if you're sensitive to very airtight seals and ear pressure changes. I imagine other pairs would sound better than mine, but this kind of quality control on 1300€ headphones isn't acceptable.

The details.
With this headphone you can hear the smallest details.The stereo image is incredible.
Combined with sonarworks you can reach the perfection.

Really good stuff
Frednugent 17.06.2021
This headphone is incredibly accurate. I use it to check mixes and listen for detail. It came in very handy after an album was mastered incorrectly. These headphones told me the truth and helped me identify a high pitch tape frequency that I was not hearing in my speakers. Saved the day.
They are a bit heavy but I dont use them all the time and when I do I dont find them uncomfortable at all.
The first time I listened to some old music that I know well I actually wept. It was like hearing these old songs with the young ears I had as a child. There was that depth and feeling that made me love the songs originally but that I hadn't heard in years. If you need some high end studio headphones for work try these.

My honest review
Johnny96 26.10.2021
I make music on ATC SCM 25 active monitors in combination with amp powered NS-10M and now i added these headphones into the mix.

After working with them for couple weeks i can really understand depth and width differently as their room is quite large and therefore the separation is quite apparent. that also creates an issue with placement of instruments and vocals in the mix since its quite difficult to pinpoint the exact dB (after compression and eq) i want it to sit.

if you want to use these headphones to their maximum i would suggest to work with a pair of reference that allows you to be more precise with compression eq and relationship between instruments and use these headphones as a reference for depth and width of elements to enhance the stereo field.

you can take this review with a grain of salt as i just started working with them consistently so it might change in the future as time takes its course
