the sound is the best, unfortunately the comfort is a lot less. I have a smaller than average head and it does not fit me. I fixed this by taping a Beyerdynamic DT990 headband on the inside of this one. that works great and I've been enjoying these for over a year now.
the cable is not good and I also dislike the mini-jack connectors. I fixed this in a way, I made custom mini XLR to 2xmini-jack cables. I have multiple of them just in case. that means I can use any jack to mini xlr cable. I use a Beyerdynamic 1.4m jack to mini xlr at the moment. when I feel the need I can swap this out for any longer cable.
In conclusion, these headphones are the best I've ever heard and have everything you want (in the sound department) but the build quality can feel a little cheap in some parts. for my needs they also needed a custom headband and cabling. if you want to put some effort in, these are the best you can get for the money.
I've tested these against many other headphones including the AKG k240's and k702(sent the k702 back because they sucked), Sony mdr7506, Beyerdynamic DT900 pro x, DT990 and DT770 and the Sennheiser hd 600(from a friend).
