Detachable locking cable, replaceable pads; no mic
No microphone
Light, cool velour pads; comfy for hours
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

- Neutral, very detailed, broad stage
- Deep controlled bass and natural vocals
- Comfortable for hours
- Airy, open presentation
Cons
- Bass is nimble but light on weight
- Rock and funk sound a bit flat and unexciting
- Flat tuning can sound unanimated
- Exposes poor recordings
- Plastic feels stiff; leaks sound
- Long single cable feels old-fashioned
- Unforgiving with compressed files or a weak laptop output

What Hi-FiMar 2021
Detailed, even and analytical open-back that is very comfortable; lacks the energy of livelier rivals.

TechRadarOct 2020
Revealing, neutral headphone for studying a recording; less fun for casual listening.

Tom's GuideJun 2022
A serious listener's headphone that is analytical without being dull.

StereoNETMar 2021
No-nonsense neutral headphone, easy to recommend for clean sound on a budget; not colourful.
