Mighty Decent!
Edgar Blackdagger 09.11.2019
I think these are made as workhorse headphones,
they sound ok, they eliminate much of the outside noise, you can wear them for hours and if you break them to the point of no repair, well, it's 88€, you can buy another pair.

The low end is surprisingly deep and not compressed so I'm hearing things a lot clearer below 60Hz, the high end is also clear yet a bit harsh, but there is a lack of 80-200Hz and at the same time the sound is a bit boxy and hollow.

Good enough for the price, the pronounced high end helps most singers when tracking but the lack of body confuses vocalists like me that have deep voices.
Also as an engineer I can't make any proper EQ decisions with them because the mids are all over the place.

Conclusion:
Good enough sound and isolation for tracking,
for mixing good enough for checking kick-bass relationship and offensive high frequencies, so I'd use them for edits before actually mixing and as another pair of headphones to check my final mix/mastering just in case.

Rather short lifespan
Zucca 20.07.2020
Bought these in Feb 2019.
On Jul 2020 I noticed that the another ear padding has been torn apart from the seam. Looks like it was not stitched but glued.
Not good rating for life expectancy obviously.
The sound quality is good, flat. Isolation too. Very comfortable.
The miniXLR connector carries BOTH right and left signals, so it isn't wired as you might expect it to be.

I cannot fully recommend these for someone who uses them daily.

I have big ears and head and unfortunately the ear cups are not big enough. Also the headphone itself it's very tight even when loosened as much as they allow
