What the reviews say
The sources point toward quiet, seated listening. SoundGuys praises the sound and replaceable cable, but notes limited deep bass. RTINGS explains why the open ear cups are unsuitable for a noisy commute: outside sound enters and music leaks out. Choose these for someone who wants a wired home-listening pair and understands that tradeoff.
