Great for the price

I needed to get several pairs for a recording session, so I got some of these and some of the Superlux HD660 Pro at the same time. I've also got a pair of the much more expensive Beyerdynamic DT770 Pros to compare to.

Sound Quality: They sound good! They feel fairly flat in the highs and upper mids. They have a bit of a bump around the lower mids, which can make funk sound a bit muddy, and might get fatiguing if you're listening for hours on end. Their soundstage is quite enclosed, with the sound feeling like it's coming from inside your head rather than around you. Compared to the Beyerdynamics they do feel muddier and less precise, but they're pretty respectable, especially for electronic pop music, where the bump in the lower mids serves to accentuate the synth bass lines. The sound isolation is not quite as good as the superlux or the beyerdynamics but is definitely nothing to complain about.

Build: No concerns at all. The braided removable cable feels nice and strong (although came folded rather than coiled which is a shame). The headphones themselves have a decent weight to them, with plenty metal in the headband and the plastic doesn't feel as cheap as I was expecting, though it doesn't feel as premium as the beyerdynamics. They feel maybe slightly better quality than the superlux ones, but look slightly cheaper in design. All the stitching in the faux leather looks to be good quality.

Comfort: Really good, to my surprise. They fit on the head very comfortably and don't pull awkwardly or put pressure in strange places, and the headband has a lot of adjustability so I'd expect these to be comfortable on most heads. The earcups are deep, which means that if your ears fit inside them (and most should), they don't get pushed against the side of your head. The warmth of the leather earcups means that they're not quite as comfortable for long periods as the superlux, but I could still wear these for a few hours and not have any complaints.

Overall: A really solid pair of studio headphones for anyone on a budget. Buy these over the superlux if you prioritise a punchy sound over precision and brightness

price/performance

my expectations were really low. usually when you are trying to buy a headphone for less than 50€, the material quality sucks and sounds is meh… but this is something else, especially for this price i doubt you can find anything better.

the material quality is good
sound quality is good for me(i am not a sound engineer)
removable jack feature is nice
top of the head sometimes hurts and i don’t believe you can use this longer than 5 hours, too much pressure sometimes

Solid studio headphones
SGStudios 29.04.2024
High-quality closed studio headphones, very comfortable with a high degree of isolation. T.bone and Thomann did it again, setting new standards of affordable quality! The look, the feel, the sound it's all there. The only thing I don't like is the much-extended bass rumble which is too powerful, but it's not muddy, the resolution is very good and revealing!

Alltagskopfhörer für die Videokonferenz
b3n 08.04.2024
Ich kann die lange Zeit komfortabel auf den Ohren haben. Der Ohrumschluss ist super. Das Kabel ist perfekt lang um um den Schreibtisch drumherum zu reichen und nicht über die Tastatur laufen zu müssen. Ich benutze die als Alltagskopfhörer überwiegend in Videkonferenzen.

Very good for the price, exellent isolation.
Dejo0152 01.06.2024
They are very robust but light. Construction in alluminium and plastic bud they look much expensive. Earfoam is really soft and pleasant. Sound is good for recording and usable for mixing because the basses are too loud. Very good product for the price.

Best cheap recording headphones.
HomegrownAudio 17.12.2024
If you want to have several headphones to distribute to musicians for recording or rehearsing, and do not want to invest in beyerdynamic and having those been tossed around and mishandled all the time, then this is for you. Comfortable, very very descent isolation, and very low cost so if they break can just buy another pair.
