Well finished with tonal weaknesses

The as "Street-omnidirectional microphone, headphone" declared part of its task fully satisfy. The build quality is sturdy and durable impact, the comfort is high and even after prolonged use (3 - 4 hours) there is no pressure or other discomfort in the head. The adjustment of the strap length is possible in small steps, the Pass comfort is supported by it. The cable and the connectors are made solid, nothing seems fragile and cheap. The shield between the environment and listening is very good, even at elevated volume is heard outside as good as nothing, under the headphones you get from the environmental sounds nothing to nothing with. Seen from that point is these headphones highly recommended (if the shelf life proves in continuous operation).

Technically sound, all audio components are always to some extent a matter of taste. Since the headset is designed for the road, he must of course deal with compressed audio files such as MP3, M4A etc.. I tested a good piece with different styles of music that I listen alternately. Pink Floyd and other prog bands, classic rock like The Beatles, Alan Parsons Project, Hard Rock (z. B. AC / DC, MSG, etc.), metal (Motorhead, Ozzy, Black Sabbath, Megadeth ...) and classical , from Baroque to Wagner and more recent composers.

Total is to say: nothing sounds bad, but it is also nothing brilliant reproduced in sound. The sound is overall flack for my taste, to the center, it lacks defined highs and a certain saturation in the bass range. Despite the diverse equalizer, they have to offer the iPod or the iPhone, I'm never quite happy with the sound. However, this may well be due to my listening habits.

Given the moderate price certainly a serious offer. The sound is and remains a matter of opinion ...
