Terrific cans

Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year

Pros: Excellent detail, amazing soundstage, wonderfully comfortable. These are amazing if you're looking for detail and separation. The subtle nuances of your music almost jump out at you; the separation of instruments almost makes listening to old favorites a new experience. Beyond that, the soundstage makes these amazing for games and movies; positional audio is handled very well.

Despite their size (believe me, these are big), these are very comfortable headphones. At first they seemed a bit stiff, but once they're worn in and you're used to their size they're hardly noticeable. And because of the fabric of the earpads, your ears don't get all hot and sweaty. They're also very lightweight; I can wear these for hours without any real fatigue.

Also, these are open headphones, which means anyone around you can easily hear your music, and that external noise is, likewise, let in. I consider this a pro, since it's a large factor in the sound signature. Others may need closed cans,

Cons: There are only 3 "problems" I can think of for these headphones. The first and only real issue (for me), is that, although I find these headphones very comfortable, they do have a tendency to slide around on my head if I, say, nod my head up and down. However, it is not difficult to find a comfortable position, at least for me. This is a very minor issue. I'm a small~normal sized guy, 5'10", 135 pounds (give or take).

The second "problem" is the bass. I find the sound signature of these headphones to be well balanced and accurate. It won't suit the bassheads out there, but it does represent bass accurately.

The third "problem" is that these are open. If you intend to use these around other people, you *will* be "that guy" who annoys everyone else with your music.

Other Thoughts: These headphones are amazing. If the "cons" I listed here don't apply to you, get these headphones. If you want a detailed, articulate, well-separated listening experience with sublime comfort, get these headphones. I use them in my room for hours on end, and couldn't be happier with them.
