The highs are quite lacking in this headphone, above about 12kHz the whole range starts to get lost. Let's not talk about really low sounds with this type of thing. Due to its open nature, everyone else will hear what we listen to besides us... this is a negative in most situations, right? So why are these headphones correct? Well, the midrange, and what it achieves, is completely fine, not disturbing. They are comfortable, remain almost unnoticeable even after hours of use, and have surprisingly withstood a lot of things so far - but I know that this can vary from piece to piece. Plus, getting 2 pieces, so the price is also correct. If you don't want professional sound, hate closed headphones, and aren't bothered by the lack of isolation, it will be good for you... not really for others.
