Great headset for audio calls/recordings with colleagues
Very comfortable headset. My favorite features are: 1. Detachable spiral cable. As for me - this cable is great - sturdy (I have had another headset for over two years with a similar cable type - AKG K-712 Pro - no problems for everyday use for 4+ hours in a row so far). Easy to organize (spiral cables don't need to be untangled, while straight cables do). Finally, the length is just about right. 2. Velour cushions. There are two pairs of cushions in the box - the default ones (soft man-made leather) on the headset, and velour ones as a spare pair. Velour cushions are awesome! Having them is a great life-saver as the headset sits nice and soft on the head and it doesn't feel uncomfortable wearing the headset for a long time. One thing, however, that makes the overall impression a little bit fuzzy is the headband. It's made of some sort of PVA material or something, and it does look a little bit strange (cheap? weak?) for a headset for everyday use, which costs almost â¬300. The headband of my AKG K-712 Pro would be a better choice in this particular case.
Great sound quality and well made
Bought these to use for monitoring and talkback on an X32. The sound quality and isolation is very good and they feel like they will last a long time. The cable is detachable with a micro XLR connector on the cans which is very handy when packing them away as it stops the cable getting all tangled around the headband. There’s also a novel feature in that the headphones mute themselves when you take them off which is quite neat. Condenser mic is pretty good too but my only criticism is that the XLR plug for the mic is quite big and heavy - most likely due to the 48v preamp being housed in there so the dynamic model should have a smaller plug.
