Almost perfect!

I didn’t know music could sound like that
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve never been one to throw an obscene amount on headphones because how different could it be. But man, these are built DIFFERENT. All the joys of listening to music on a record player with that crisp clarity and the modern confidence of high tech.

Perfect
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound and they truly block out the background noise. I have used these mowing and they are great. One thing I don’t care for is if you talk, the sound pauses but I suspect this is something I have to figure out.

Better than expected
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have the Sony earbuds (wf-1000xm4) which are amazing and needed a new set of over ear headphones. Got these and I'm hooked. I'm not one to stay with just one brand but it's going to be hard for me to try anything else going forward.
