" ... M writing this after listening to music for 2hours . ... Coming to the sound quality I must admit that it's very much clear like a crystal. ... One can hear even very minute instruments' sound. ... "
" ... The headphone sounds nice, clear and sharp, I am not a Headphone Expert. ... If you feel the music is really flat, add an equalizer in your system and switch to base boost mode. ... "
" ... All those who are beginners in music production should go for these. ... "
" ... The sound quality is awesome at high volumes as all the frequency hit the sweet spot. ... "
" ... Best sounding headphone I have ever used. ... "
" ... Sound quality is damn good. ... "
" ... People say this gives flat sound. ... "
" ... I bought these headphones for mixing and mastering purposes and I'm happy to say that I'm not disappointed. ... "

" ... Good headphones at this budget. ... "
" ... Awesome sound output in this price ... "
" ... Great buy at this budget. ... "
" ... It is the best studio headphones in that price range, I feel. ... But I would prefer the m40x or m50x if I had a better budget. ... "

" ... Being a studio-monitor headphone the bass and treble won't pop out that much as you would see on a different kind of headphones where the bass packs more punch. ... "
" ... The Redoubted One👌👍Bass frequency is low, but belive me the original sound is totally realistic. ... "
" ... Those were a lot more flatter, but this has that subtle bass, and gave the audio a lot more natural feel of depth. ... If you're a person who isn't into mainstream bass powered electronic or pop music, you're going to love this. ... "
" ... Crystal clear sound (No bias in frequency response - no unwanted boost in bass or treble). ... "
" ... I am not somebody who likes too much bass, so it was the perfect option for me. ... If you are into bass, go for some other model. ... It has decent bass, which doesn't hurdle the enjoyment of listening to the subtle nuances of a song. ... "
" ... The flat frequency response is helpful but not noticeable as the bass is very powerful comparing to other headphones. ... "
" ... However, bass is moderate to low, it's not punchy. ... My final verdict is if u r looking for a headphone with moderate bass and crystal clear sound with every detail then it's the one in this price range. ... But, if u prefer to have more bass than the clarity then u can skip it. ... "
" ... If you're not a bass head this might he the perfect pair of mid range budget headphones for you. ... "

" ... Quite wonderful headphones albeit the long long wire. ... "
" ... Ans - These headphones do not make practical sense as they are non-collapsible and also they come with a long cable, which will not make sense in the gym or jogging as you would want something which is not obstructing your activity. ... Is the aux cable removable? ... - Comes with a straight cable which I personally love, I particularly am not fond of the coiled cable as it keeps dangling and getting itself stuck in my other equipment. ... - The long cable has got good reach, so if you want to reach for something you can easily do that without having to take off the headphones ... "
" ... Chord length-Good. ... "
" ... It comes with high power input cable. ... "
" ... 2) Build quality is really good, especially the cable is thick and well made. ... "
" ... length of the cord ensures great mobility and the connector jack is a welcome accessory! ... "
