Love-hate headset

I bought this headset 2 times so far, it's the best sound you can get for the money but it has a very very very big problem with the output jack material...the plastic that holds the Jack worns out extremely fast and cuts the Jack, I really like this headset but they need to do something about this problem

Bon casque à petit prix

J'ai acheté ce casque dans le but de mixer des productions en home-studio (niveau intermédiaire). A ce prix, le son et le confort du casque sont tout à fait honnêtes, il conviendra aux débutants et intermédiaires.

Cheap option for studio headphones

I bought this for my son to use to do electronic music. The sound quality is much better than the price tag suggests. The comform is fine, they are reasonably light and comfortable. They do not feel as sturdy as some more expensive models but for the price these are good value.

Sounds fantastic, but...

Sounds fantastic but the build is a bit plasticky.

Although for this price I guess you can’t have it all.

Great to have a couple of pairs lying around as spares in any studio

These are comfy enough for tracking, good enough quality that I don't feel like I'll have to replace them in 6 months and sound fine for the price.

Good headphones for monitoring

These work as expected. Sound is good, they feel ok and also the overall look is nice. Can be used when monitoring sound f.e on rehearsals or when mixing live. Could even work on studio mixing if you are familiar with the sound. Possibly the wire is the weak spot and can be damaged more easily.

They sound good

Bought them for quiet bass practice and sound is just about how I expected it to be. Bit bassy but not for bassheads, while everything else fits properly making nice and wide sound image. I like the cables, two sets of earpads, love the sound, like the price but headband broke after just few months. And can't be replaced, as far as I could research that topic. There are some DIY solutions for it tho.

Superlux ? Superfine...

Headphones at this price should not be this good.

Would definitely buy again.

Nice budget headphones.

I like the fit and sound from these headphones, plus my wife says she cant hear a thing apart from my actual guitar noises. Outside of the headphones.

Nice one

I use it every time I use my guitar because I live in a flat and I don't want to disturb my neighbors. It's a nice product for the money I paid for and it also comes with an extra pair of velour ear pads. I recommend it thoroughly.

Good audio for the pice but....

The soldering inside the shell could use a bit of an improvement. After 18 months of almost daily usage the soldering broke where there's no stress on the wire at all. An easy fix for me, luckily, but not one that should happen in such a place.

Fantastic sound but weak cable design

I've had 3 pairs of these headphones, which is a testament to how good these sound and how badly their cable is designed.

For the price offered I don't believe you can get a better headphones experience, the sound quality is great, with a warm bass and ever so slightly recessed mids and highs. I've only sensed this sort of clarity and balance in headphones 80 euros and up, which at almost triple the price of these just goes to show how good of a deal these are. The sound stage is also very good, the open design allows for a really pleasant listening experience. They are also immensely comfortable, the adjustable headband works like a charm, the construction is pleasant and the velour pads are a fantastic addition to a 30 euro pair headphones

(They come with two pairs of pads, the faux leather ones that already come with the headphones aren't very good) I've mixed on these headphones for over 5 hours in a row with only mild discomfort.

So the reason why I don't rate these a perfect 5 is due to the cable design, the male jack on the headphones is just too flimsy and short and always ends up ripping with extensive use making the detachable cable useless. Either make it longer or sturdier, it's the only thing holding these headphones back.

Overall fantastic headphones with one exceptionally bad flaw.

Best bang for your buck headphone!

I bought this headphone for my homestudio. I record music as a hobby so I wanted a decent headphone without spending the jackpot all at once. My previous headphone was also a Superlux (can't recall what series though) so this seemed to be the right one for the job.

The first thing I did was open a heavy mix in logic an take a listen. What I noticed is that the sound of the headphone is very crisp and clear. Very well balanced sound overall. I played with the bass, mids and highs in the mix and I feld very happy with my purchase right away!

The headphone is very comfortable to wear, the cushions make sure that you don't hear to much noise from 'outside', and after wearing them for a couple of hours they still remain comfortable.

So: the sound is very good, what about the construction quality?

It's mostly made of hardplastics and thats fine, it doesn't feel fragile but it also doesn't feel like it won't ever die on you. The main reason why I gave the quality only 3 stars is because the rubber around the jack cable is already torn on some places...

verdict: It's absolutely a no-brainer to buy this headphone. If you're like me and don't do music professionally you only care about a good sound and a comfortable headphone, and thats exactly what you get!

headphones

I am not a professional i needed this as an option for silent practise.

They do the job quite good and they are quite comfortable... sadly i don't have much experience to compare with but i can say i am happy with this product.

Got them for bass practice, great value for money

Got these headphones to practice bass at home, was pleasantly surprised with the fact that they're rather comfortable, don't feel too cheap, sound all right.

They feel a little less sturdy than their more expensive brethren such as AKG, for example, but for the purpose they serve these are great headphones for their cost.

Great value

Excelent sound quality for the value. Does not allow much environment sound in, which may be a good or bad thing, depending on the task.
