Overview

Open-back headphones

An open-back headphone tuned for accuracy, with angled drivers meant to sound more like speakers in front of you. Reviewers found it neutral and analytical rather than warm.

  • Neutral, analytical tuning

    Reviewers found the sound neutral and analytical, with well-extended but lean bass. It suits careful listening more than bass-heavy music.

  • Angled drivers

    The drivers are angled in the ear cups to mimic the listening triangle of a pair of loudspeakers, aiming for a wider stage in front of the listener.

  • Light plastic build

    Reviewers found it light and comfortable for long sessions, though the all-plastic frame feels less premium.

Cable

A detachable 3 m cable with a 6.3 mm plug is included, with a 3.5 mm adapter on a short flexible lead.
