Each part is rated on one scale for every earbud and headphone, from lab test measurements where they exist, what reviewers found, specs and owner reports. It rates the product itself, not how good it is for the price.

Pros

  • Light, comfortable suspension headband
  • Vocals come through very well
  • Parts can be replaced
  • Detailed, spacious, natural sound with a wide stage
  • Light clamp; comfy for long sessions and with glasses
  • Fuller bass than most open designs
  • Smooth mids and detailed treble

Cons

  • Bass is quiet; little sub-bass
  • Semi-open, so isolation is mostly absent
  • Build durability doubtful
  • Quiet, needs a strong source; lacks punch and sub-bass
  • Leaks sound and lets noise in
  • Feels delicate; no case
  • Stiff earpads
  • SoundGuysJan 2025

    Fine budget studio pair for podcasting and mixing at home; not for commuting or bass fans.

  • MusicRadarJul 2022

    Shines for checking stereo image and calm listening in a quiet room, but better studio picks exist.

  • Warm, pleasant and EQ-friendly semi-open classic held back by stiff pads and a plasticky build.
