Best headphones I've owned
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are amazing headphones. The sound quality is top notch. They are very comfortable. The app gives you the ability to adjust sound in terms of presets like Club etc or customize your equalizer for more bass etc. No other headphones compare.

Incredible sound!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Granted, I've never shelled out for a really good pair, but now that I am listening with these headphones, I get it. The balance is incredible. The noise canceling is amazing. The toggle between ambient and noice cancelling is super easy and quick. The features are great. Bluetooth works great. No problem with phone calls. Tested and the other person heard me great. Kept noise cancelling on while I was talking and found I could still hear my voice, which was nice, but could listen to music with noise cancelling on and couldn't hear someone talking to me. I had this on a wish list and then the price dropped, so I went ahead and ordered them. Really glad it did. Extremely pleased and excited to really enjoy and deeply listen to music.

Good for noise cancellation under three years
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They lasted almost three years before a loud screech came through on the left ear cup. Great for noise cancellation especially if you want to go deaf haha but really they were good while they lasted. For $300 though I expected more

Love em.
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love them. They are the best sound you can get for headphones that have all of the mobile friendly features that these have (Bluetooth, noise cancel, airplane adapter, mobile app with eq adjustments, multi device connections, nice travel case, wired & wireless). If you strictly want the best audiophile headphones you won’t find all of these features. With these features though, these are the best sound quality cans you can get. Maybe not out of the box, but with eq adjustments you can fine tune in the mobile app. You will NOT be disappointed by these. - budget audiophile hobbyist who uses these for best sound quality while on the go.

Better than AirPod Pros
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are some excellent headphones. I have had apples AirPod pros for 2 years and I loved them but they always lacked in the sound quality department but as soon as I put these on everything changed. These are the best sounding headphones I have ever had. From the smooth highs and the perfect base these are a great buy for those who just want amazing sound quality with all the bells and whistles that all these earbuds have and The noise cancellation is a lot better than I thought it would be.

||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the noise cancellation. And when you take the headset off it pauses the music. If only the sound was louder . Me personally I want to sound like I have in AirPods . But these are great for people that don’t care about the loudness

Great ANC with bassy sound.
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A little bit too much bass I think. Makes some music sound a little muddy. Can probably fix this in EQ, but these were really comfortable and the ANC is really good. Recently got these for a 15 hr flight and they worked well.

Came for the price, stayed for the sound.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the price these really are great. Easy to travel with, calls and music sound great. Easy set up, what else do you want? Battery life us great for an 8hes work day, oy complaint is that when it warns you you have low battery....what it really means is you have less than 5 min. Minor complaint for an otherwise great set of headphones.
