## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Give them sufficient run in, then enjoy!
*by T***S on November 25, 2024*

I bought these after looking at a review on What HIFi?, which highly recommends these wired cans. Upon receipt my impression was that of solid fit and build. Bringing them on line I found them almost unlistenable, even when used with one of my dongle DAC's (iFi GO Link, Questyle M15i). The high end attack was piercing and the sound lacked overall smoothness and cohesiveness. So, plug them in, leave them online and walk away overnight. Coming back, the improvement was great. The highs were moderated and everything was starting to pull together. Now, with probably 40-50 hours of listening, the wait is worth it! Outstanding clarity and separation. It's a clinical sound, not booming, but with plenty of bass when called for. The soundstage is remarkably deep. In comparison with other headphones, my venerable AKG K701's (which as I write this are available on Amazon for $235.95, which is an outstanding value), and Sony WH-1000XM4's (wired, without ANC turned on), I gravitate toward these Austrian Audio's for relaxed, long term listening. It's a full, rich, exciting sound, albeit technical, particularly good for music with strong instrumentation such as classical, but not lacking in vocal reproduction. The AKG's, which are open backed, are also quite technical and very airy, but are comparatively a tiny bit thin, while the Sony's, although giving an all and all wonderful sound, are less precise. My preference is toward a flat, unenhanced reproduction, which to me is what the artist intends. So, if you're willing to tolerate some wait while the Austrian Audio's run in, I think you will be rewarded with exceptional sound at a modest price.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ sounds good but a little bit delicate
*by A***R on November 27, 2024*

Nice and bright sounding but could use more base. Daughter broke the headband but was able to glue it back together.

### ⭐ Not Good
*by A***C on April 14, 2025*

Had problems with them from the moment they arrived. No support from seller or Amazon. Charged restocking fee for defective product.
