HD-668 B : Can take a real beating and still sound good

12 years ago

I've had these headphones for ~1 year or so and they've been dropped, tossed, tangled, sat on, coffeed etc. etc. And still no complaints! Amazing. I actually bought them just because of the nifty cable connection at the speaker element because my cables always go bad near the connector and I thought I could just switch it out when it goes bad. I haven't had the need to yet. Super rigid and I love it.

The sound is, well, good I guess but it's hard to give a proper evaluation for me because if you compare to some of the most expensive, upper end, headphones then they might not be as good but I think they give an authentic representation of what was recorded (taking all the other sound-factors like microphones and such into the equation of course). I would like to try them with a headphone amplifier to see how they sound at higher levels than what my rig can produce.

They sit comfortably during long sessions and self-adjust to the head so you don't have to fiddle with any annoying length adjusters and such. I don't know if this might come as a disadvantage for extra-ordinarily large headed gals and girls.

Conclusively, they are a lot of headphone for the money and their extremely nice build is by itself worth every cent.
