After my old Sony headphones only had still like to semi-stereo sound, a replacement had to be found. After a long (very long) to and fro my choice is then dropped to a perceived underdog, I never had to start on the bill. After several weeks, I can say with complete justification, that I made the best possible choice for my project (the-ear-enclosing headphones to 50). The headphones are scary wertig: stable bracket, good materials, metal ear ... that to be seen in the picture gray upholstery above the bracket I find very pleasant. The brackets themselves are gradually locked. The cable is out side (YES!) And flat, which hopefully prevents damage. The plug acts also very high quality and is still pretty small (and snapped). The sound is adequate for my needs go with classic powerful bass. The environment you do not get great with, although you are not completely isolated (for me an advantage). I would buy it again!
