    I got these as a gift for my sister and she said that everything about these headphones are amazing; sound, feel, and size are all good. However, she did mention that she wishes she could use them for a workout or something similar but they are not sweat resistant.

    The sound signature is aggressive on these. But very responsive to EQ at the same time. Noise cancellation is solid as wel. Call quality is excellent also.
