“As with the Sennheisers, the bass is pumped up more than you will find on colorless audiophile headphones. And they do reasonably well on a variety of music, although the sound is a little muddy on intricate orchestral pieces, like those in opera and on movie soundtracks.”
Muddy, intricate, pumped up, colorless: the NYT's got all its bases covered in this compact review that proves again that headphones are audio's new face. By the way, these things rock. I got a few minutes with them whilst shooting the 2014 edition of Mac Audio and I didn't want to put them down. Comfortable, light, tough, and fun- everything a headphone should be.
Thanks for the heads-up, @SennheiserUSA.
