I already had Sennheiser earphones in the past that had really liked me but that lasted just over a year (for 40 euros), so I went on this model which critics are good and the price quite low (18 euros for me). Finally, I must say I'm pretty mixed, so the sound is good and satisfactory end caps (4/5), both the headphones are really too unbalanced for me (24cm to the left, 53cm to the right) so that one has the impression that the whole weight is supported headphones in one ear (-1 on the final grade, rather subjective point though).
