HD-662 F : Much better than you'd expect

12 years ago

Soundwise, they're just as flat as you'd hope for studio headphones. They sound neutral, albeit a bit distant, I'd say. Obviously they're not thatsuited to actually listening to music "for fun", though. But for the price, they're a pair of bloody excellent studio 'phones, no matter if you're an amateur or a semi-professional.

The only issue I've had with them was that they're not that comfy. My earlobes are quite sensitive and the headphones cause my ears to sweat a lot, which has somehow begun to practically tear the skin apart from the back of my earlobes. (I should probably go see a skin doctor shouldn't I?)

I've never before had any problems with other headphones — it must just be the material that I'm reacting to. I hear there are replacement pads, though, so that might solve it.

They're obviously cheap, and the build quality gives it away but I've been using them on and off for a year or so now and they still look new to me. Totally worth the price if your earlobes aren't such wussies as mine are.
