Disappointed compared to the previous strong!

For years, I had the Sony MDR ED series is in use, because I felt the form of the earpiece as particularly pleasant and Sound + processing have also voted. With these expectations I recently bought the new model ED 12, after its predecessor was unfortunately broke down.

The first negative impression came out of the box. The cable and the headphones worked qualitative advance significantly inferior to the previous (quite apart from the lousy optics ... in my opinion).

The sound of the new series is still very useful, but when my cable noise models often could be heard, which is probably due to the poor processing.

After a few months of the left earphone was however suddenly the spirit.

Conclusion:

+ Useful Sound
+ Low
- Miserable processing
- Low durability (in my case at least)
- Design
