The open back design doesn't make them neighbour friendly for commuting/travelling

The design is hit or miss, but I like it

The looks are very similar to the old HD598s, but drop the faux-wood accents for a more updated, modern design, adding some silver trim

There are two cords with different size plugs included; the big 1/4" one would fit the monitor output on my daughter's sound recording equipment but in that application I suppose the open back design might be bad

The design is hit or miss, but I like it

This headset is exceptionally comfortable, beautifully designed and has great sound quality compared to the Bose AE2.

I tested these against the B&W P3/P5/P7 and prefer the open back design, with plush velour pads, where the drivers aren't a millimeter away from your ear drums.

Love the double ended plug cords, no risk of headphone damage by yanking the cord... at most, u will replace the cord, very clever design.

Amazing design, good build quality, seem to be durable, but sometimes they are a bit unconfortable from the top

Excellent fit n finish.
