Clear, Detailed but could do with more low end weight
First Impressions.Nicely boxed and presented. Comes with a sturdy case, 3 sized silicone tips and build quality is impressive. Love the sexy logo cut out vent backed by mesh.Fitment & ComfortFor me they were comfortable but they did slip out easyer then I would have liked, probably due to the weight of the metal or the silicone being new. Not as light in the ear as some competitor however never felt heavey in the ear due to the light weight flat wire used.Build QualityReal metal is used everyehere, the ear buds, the 3.5mm jack housing, the micraphone and button housing, buttons and the L/R splitter. All this metal gives them a real premium feel. However the flat cable, its feels a bit thin and likly to twist (only time will tell) if not stored properly. This also madde for untangling a bit tricky.Sound Quality and Listening.Phil Collins - In The Air TonightDetail, deatail, deatail. Right from the first listen, this is what I pick up, the subtle sounds and the vocal echo in the left ear become more apparent and picks up on the little things in the background that iv not noticed before.Alicia Keys - VariousFOCAL doing what they do best.. vocals and instrument placement. These headphones provide a soundstage and clarity that at this price point iv not heard. Instuments sound full and clear, the deffinition and placement of them were on point.Eirykah Badu - On & OnThis track i chose for its bass. Altho its not as bass weighted as my Sennheiser mm 70i (also a premium in ear handsfree around the same price) it never felt like it lacked the ability to hit the notes. The bass didnt feel like you had subwoofers in your ears (for that stick with the sennheisers) but more balanced, clearer and accurate bass.Beyonce - PartitionThis trac drops low, and these went all the way down without overwhelming me with bass nor did i feel like it was ever lacking, it was a nice balance.Final thoughtsIf i was doing running or sports, i would probably stick to a lighter plastic buds. If im going to sit back and listen to albums back to back to back, tonally, these are a joy to listen to and really bring out the detail in music and provide a revealing detailed sound that iv not heard at this price point. For all out bass, id probably plug in my sennheisers but their extended bass nature does get tiresome after some time. These still hit the lows, not as forcefully but are more engaging, a joy to listen to. I could enjoy these alll day long at low, medium and moderately loud volumes, at very loud volumes, they do start to loose their composure and get a bit too bright for my liking but hopefully with more play time they might tame down.
