Pros sound quality, comfortable, price
Cons none
Recommended it? Yes

Pros Bright, non-offensive highs, great horns, deep bass, handles plenty of power.
Cons Some might balk at the price, but i'd buy them at 2x the price.
Recommended it? Yes

Once in a while, a product I purchase far exceeds my expectations. It doesn't happen often, but when it does it's something I really, truly enjoy. This is one of those products.

I'm an audiophile. I have a rather extensive collection of CD's (over 600 at last count), I'm really diverse in... Read full review »
