Effective misophonia relief
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My daughter suffers from misophonia. She tried other passive and active noise cancelling earbuds and headphones, and none work as well as these to block sounds that trigger her (chewing swallowing, sniffling, etc.) Sound quality and comfort are top notch. I highly recommend these cans for audiophiles and anyone with misophonia!

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are the best headphones I’ve ever purchased. Ambient mode feels like you don’t have headphones on, and ANC with audio blocks out everything. Sound quality is perfect, no complaints!

Great, if you use your own eq setting
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The stock eq setting it ships with is awful. However, the eq itself is quite comprehensive and you can dial the sound to your taste pretty quickly. DEFINITELY EXPERIMENT WITH EQ because my first impression when I used it for the first time wasn't very good. Then I spent some time tweaking the eq settings and am now very happy with it!

Amazing Features, Below Average Sonic Performance
|Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones were a massive letdown. The soundstage feels super small and cramped, the mids are super weak, the bass is largely absent, and the treble does not stick out of the texture at all. And adjusting the EQ just makes things worse, like if I increase the treble it sticks out as it should but it sounds thin and strained. Increasing the bass overdrives it by quite a bit and it sounds boomy and like I’m listening underwater. I showed them to a few other of my audiophile friends and we all came to the same conclusion. My AirPods Pro 2 have a larger, more full soundstage. My Arctis Nova Pro Wireless’ (yes it is a very different headset) sound worlds more full and precise. Now, as the title says, the features are awesome. They are super comfortable, the battery is plenty big, the dual connections was super convenient, the swipes are intuitive and easy to use. But they just don’t sound good at all. If these were ~$150 then maybe, but for $450?? No way.
