drawing this intro out too long
sound like mud compared to my usual AKG K701
none of the profiles activate bass and you cannot manually switch
neither too tight nor too loose
not allowing EQ controls
very soft faux leather onto plastic driver cups
it is not one of the normal bass bombers
exaggerated lows and highs
headset doesn't have a lot of rumble or impact
only slightly
its limitations become a little obvious
media sound a bit muffled and muddy
it lacks the digital audio option

a bit too bulky for more intense physical activities
Bass delivery varies significantly across users
Low-frequency is extended down to 20Hz
it could lack a little bit in brilliance and airiness
