Alpine TKR3 - Pros & Cons

The highs actually sound very clear and nicely detailed
sleeved nylon fabric cable is detachable and very durable
hugely satisfying bass
warm projecting mids and very clear highs
Alpine logo and how sporty it looks
Alpine are beautifully presented inside this clean flip cover box
very balanced

fabric-covered cables transmitting noise into the headphone
lack of branding
the DACs are only to connect the EQ from the app to the headphones
headphones
a couple of cables
iTunes too much so using a 3rd party app always feels clunky to me

It only works with your iTunes music
polished accents aren't made out of metal and are simply plastic
The Alpines are unable to stream music over Bluetooth
ear caps are shaped like parallelograms with rounded corners
pulsating lows felt and sounded weak by
artificial bass overwhelmed the background singers and more delicate pieces of the song
the lows were noticeably thin
Alpine headphones have none of the standard left or right markings
unappealing plastic creaking noise when touched
