Excellent sound. You get exactly what you put in the mic/input. Bass response is off the charts, and treble is awesome. Coverage is good, I use these for mixing/recording, and also just to listen to music on.
I can crank these babies wide open and not hear a lick of distortion.

Features : No Opinion
N/A. Just a box and some cones basically.
