Did not like the sound
Eatmeatleet 14.08.2020
I am confused about this headphone. Way overhyped with positive reviews.

Sound is bad for casual listening, no soundstage, no details.
Frequency response: somewhat bright, loud bass, some mid frequencies sound cut out.

I did not like the sound from both mp3 player and soundcard: m-audio mk2.

The coiled cable is out of fashion, gets tangled up.

One side stopped playing in about a year, did not even bother sending it in.

The only thing I am impressed about is how it is still overhyped with positive reviews... It is very old headphone, available since 1999, and its previous model sony v6 is even older... I took some reviews for a word that headphone technology does not change all that often but I think these days you can find much better for cheaper...

Maybe I will try some modding this headphone someday, changing the cable, etc. There is a lot of info on this headphone online, maybe I will try to revive it somehow. Maybe I need a dedicated amp. But for now, I have to give a bad review because the sound is not great.
