This technology also produces the same perceived volume levels at a lower dB rating, allowing you to set the volume on your player a bit lower, potentially reducing the risk of hearing damage.

"cheap cables"

Overall: 0.5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
seemed like a high quality well made pair of phones but cables and connectors were not as advertised. No way to connect with 3.5mm and straight cable was only about 10 inches long and overall both felt and looked very cheap and not at all up to the standard one should expect from a high quality product like these otherwise certainly seemed to be. Strange.
