They’re the best I’ve ever had. Immersive!
These headphones are EXPENSIVE! And most people will never justify spending that much on a pair of headphones. Music is a huge part of my life, it helps separate myself from the chaos of the world. So for me, sound cancellation is my second priority in selecting headphones. I can honestly say that with even with music at minimum volume, the cancellation effect is massive. Very few sounds make it through. This means not blowing your eardrums just to tune the world out. Comfort is my third priority that I look for, these Napa leather earpieces and the cast aluminum frame are a dream, the headphones never feel like they want to slide off even when jogging, biking or working out in the gym. Now my #1 priority comes down to my favorite thing about music to begin with, and that is immersive audio. Nothing beats feeling completely surrounded by crystal clear, perfectly balanced, rich sound. The sound quality is impeccable, the bass is definitely punchy but not overpowering. There is no static, popping cracking or distortion that even 100& headphones will have, much less 10$ headphones. So to wrap this up, if you love immersive, clear, audio and are willing to pay 600$ to experience it, these might be for you. I would recommend that if you only enjoy super bass heavy rap, edm or dubstep and you like the boomy, over-boosted sound of Beats by Dre, these are not for you. The sound profile of the PX8’s is supposed to bring every note to the forefront and make you think you’re center stage in you’re own private recording studio.

High Value Headphones
Didn't think I would say this but at the sale price this pair is a steal. Crazy clarity, range, quality and sound stage. Super comfortable for long term (3+ hour work sessions for me) wear and relatively average weight so they aren't unwieldy if you want to take them on a plane or train. EQ settings in the app are minimal (bass/treble) but I didn't need to adjust them much, only lowered the bass a little to bring out the mid range. I cannot say enough good things about the quality of these for a wireless set and I would buy these again without a doubt! ANC is less of a priority for me, and it's okay on these. If you want $700 of ANC this isn't it. But if you want usable ANC, a decent transparency mode, and a quick toggle button you got it.

Premium quality and sound
These are like slipping into a sports car versus normal headphones. They look premium and feel the same. Sound blows the sony xms i had out of the water. Punchy accurate bass not muddied. Easily seperate instruments hearing every detail. Build quality is metal i dont see how anyone could break these without being careless. I like the button layout no gimmicky touch controls. Ive used the them gaming easily plug into ps5 controller. Everyone said they could hear me fine no complaints.
