These cans are well built and feels very solid but at the same time light and comfortable. The supplied cases comes ...
...spare batteries, and whole lot of cables. So, how's the sound? Honestly, the sound quality is a top-rate, giving out a more detailed sound than its competitors. The sound cancelling is effective, helped by large ear pieces cutting out much of the random sounds that noise-cancelling tech can't cope with electronically.
