Packaging: I find on Sony always great, whether in this headphones or MDR-Z7. Always nice to look at.
Comfort and processing: comfort I find very good, better than in the MDR-Z7, since the pads are not as thick and therefore sit better. Also it is nice and light and interferes thus not even after a long time.
The processing for the price is correspondingly good.
Sound: Yes, here Sony clearly has rolled out the carpet Bass. The bass is noticeably raised, if they are not bad for the price range, of course, the bass is blurred than in a Ultrasone Performance 880, Pro 900 or Denon AH-MM400, where these headphones cost twice also.
In general, the sound can be described as rather soft and warm, who likes such a vote, will like this headset.
Where by such a vote (whether hi-res or 'normal') guarantees the music not as represented by design of each artist, for therefore the sound is easy to largely changed.
The centers appear towards the depths withdrawn slightly, thus they are back entertaining. This will feed back into these Wohlfuehlatmosphaere, which Sony seems to want to build the KH - not necessarily negative.
The heights are then somewhat more present again and solve relatively safe place.
The space is also not too bad, and it is difficult at this point to put this in relation to the price, if you only listens to music with Kopfhoerern that are better than this. Nevertheless, the ability to locate is quite good, though the figure is a little tight.
Alternatively, one could at this point may still call the ATH-m50x, which perhaps sounds a little cooler, but an equally suits, also it costs even less.
Even if the manufacturer somewhat pompously about this headset is talking and he can not keep everything (. Such as the music, as intended by the artist), he does his job anyway good, also the processing top - thus there are ~ 4 stars ,
