    Eh, these were okay. Did not wow me, but are very comfortable. The pressure optimization gave me headaches for the first 2 weeks. I was going to return these, but didn’t realize there was a 14 day return policy. I guess I’m stuck reselling them as I’d prefer a more crisp sound and deeper bass.

    These headphones are comfortable and produce great sound. The downside is that the noise canceling isn’t the greatest and they drain my cell phone battery quickly. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a great pair of headphones.
