Feature:
decent carrying pouch, the right cup can swivel off your ear so you can listen to other stuff. the single sided cord is nice but i wish it was coiled so it wouldn't get tangled as much.
Quality:
a bit tight at first but give it week to loosen up and fit snuggly, but not too tight, on your head. other than that, they're well made and kinda rugged. appreciated the stitching on the earcup covers so they wont start to peel off as easily as my hd212's
Value:
i think it should be a bit cheaper because the sound quality isn't that great.
Desirability:
its very cool looking no doubt. you'll want to wear them rather than keep them in the pouch, haha.
Sound:
great mids and highs, very clear. lacking in bass though
Ease of Use:
c'mon, they're headphones.
Support:
im gonna give sennheiser a 10 since i have purchased a replacement cord for my 212's and despite living in Hawaii, shipping was cheap and i recieved my cord quickly and w/ no problems. they have a nice back catalog of all these parts.
Overall:
yeah the sound isn't as great as i thought it would be, but they're made really well. if they had a little more low end, they'd be perfect and nothing's perfect ofcourse. I own a pair hd212's which are almost like the opposite (more flimsy yet a lot more bassy) and they were coming to the end of the line so i decided to replace them w/ these, thinking i'd get close to the same sound. if you can afford to spend $100, then do so on a pair of better sennheisers which probably won't look as good, but they'll be more balanced than these and the 212's.
