"As good as you've heard"
Feature:
Nice thick plastic and steel construction. Ear pads are slightly thicker stiffer than typical.

Quality:
Very thick and nice feeling materials.

Value:
This is what you're going to have to pay to get headphones that exceed consumer levels.

Desirability:
No doubt. These have a lot of hype and it's deserved.

Sound:
Unreal. Never heard anything like these. I have several other sets of headphones that cost about this much and they are no comparison. I've used them in multiple setups including the audio from my sequencer as well as music listening and in every circumstance they surpass anything else I've heard.

Ease of Use:
Good fit. They don't fold out as quickly as my Sony headphones do, but I think that's because these are constructed of thicker material. Top could use a tiny bit more padding.

Support:
I've never had to use it for headphones.

Overall:
I need to use headphones for everything from casual listening to mixing tracks. I've tried many and looked a long time and finally found some truly great ones.

"THESE ARE A MUST BUY, IF YOUR IN THE MARKET!!!!"
Quality:
Quality is great. Very reliable, looks and feels to hold up great!!

Value:
I think that it is worth every penny!!!

Desirability:
SEX APPEAL IS A 10. LOOK VERY VERY HOT!!!!!

Sound:
I just got these in the mail yesterday. After using them for almost a solid 14 hours in my studio the only thing that i can say about them is that they are phenominal. Comfort and the way they snug your ears is great. Sound Quality is amazing. Christal clear highs, crisp, and great low end. I've used many different brands. Pioneer, Sony, Newmark and these are the best ones that I have ever put on my head. The price might be a bit steep but its well worth it. I highly suggest anyone looking for a new pair for DJin, mixing or producing in the studio, just go ahead and spent the little extra money. ITS WELL WORTH IT!!!

Overall:
I plan on having these for quite a while!!
