OK Depending on the Price
I don't think they are worth $149, not sure I would even pay $99. I think the sound quality is OK, nothing special but not bad, they can be comfortable. My biggest problem is that they sit too low on my head and hurt the top of my ears. If I put about 1" of foam under the headband they sit about right. I think they are designed for people with larger heads, other reviewers have mentioned this. If they are on sale and fit your head they can be a good deal. The one other thing is more of a nit, the label that says right or left is rather small and hard to read.

Best headphone deal for $49.
As others have mentioned, they are large. They comfortable fit around my large ears, and though they aren't too loose, they definitely don't clamp too hard at all. The pads are very soft as well, so long sessions aren't uncomfortable at all. I wouldn't recommend headbanging with them, and would agree with others that additional padding is needed in the headband to get proper placement. As long as you don't care about aesthetics, a padded wrap around the headband works perfectly. The cans are plastic, but don't feel cheap for <$50. I like the very very subtle blue color. The metal brackets have a rough finish, but look nice. The cable is substantial and solid; some people might not like the heft, but I love it. Bass is present but not overwhelming, mids are warm, and the treble sounds very clear and strong. Playing games is especially immersive; games sound like you're right in the middle of the action, with noise distance and direction exactly where they ought to be.

Home Recording Closed-Back Cans
I wanted headphones for home recording (mainly acoustic music), and I've long eyed Hifiman as a reliable, high tech brand. So this offer at $49 (discounted from $149) was too good to pass up. And I *love* these headphones.

Almost everyone should have a pair at $50
These are surprisingly a nice set of headphones for their sale price of $49. It seems like the best deal on the market. I generally use these for tv / gaming but they have a very nice sound signature for music (I've just been using other sets for music lately). I thought it would be a perfect fit for me as i am a rather large person (6'4" with average head for my size), but they indeed need the headband "tightened" every time I put them on in order to get a decent seal and not feel like they are falling off of my head. I simply grab the metal the cups mount to and squeeze the cups almost together and it seems to work well for me.. when sealed, they sound very nice and with pretty decent clarity. They do not require amplification, and they would seem like a good unit to take on the go (if they weren't massive). They work particularly well for tv / gaming as the sounds seem to come from far outside of your ears (from the big cups as others have concluded) so it gives you a nice immersion for that sort of thing. All in all, for $49, almost everyone should have a pair.

Great Buy For $49
The headphone is too loose but the sound is good. If you put both hands and give it a little pressure it sounds even better. I wouldnt paid $149.

Pleasantly surprised
Bought these on a whim as they we're on sale for only $49, so didn't expect much. I was very pleasantly surprised!

These sound great right out of the box, are insanely easy to drive and very comfortable to wear. The somewhat ugly dark blue tupperware-like cans on the sides actually look alot better IRL. The blue isn't as prominent as it looks in pictures. The cans give a noticeable hollow timbre, which I rather enjoy. It gives them character. The HE-R7DX is a great allrounder for all types of music and casual youtube/TV-watching. The soundstage isn't bad for closed backs either. It is not analytical, but enjoyable. Build quality is OK, I'd say. I like these HE-4XX style adjustments better than the 5XX style ones. No rattles here, but I have noticed one of the 3.5mm inputs is abit loose, so there's that. Pads are huge and super comfy. Clamp force is a tad bit on the light side, but OK. I do get abit sweaty ears after like an hours continuous use, but I might just be too used with open-backs. Very happy with my purchase, and for 49 bucks this was a steal! At $149 retail price..? Mmmm I'd wait for a sale.

HiFiMan QC Strikes Again!
Won't revisit sound as that is covered below, but these were delivered with something rattling around inside one of the cans. Appear to be functionally okay.... for now. Debating a return/exchange. - Cheap AF headband, questionable QC + Great sound for $, fit my fat head really well, very light

static.overdubThe problem is never the sound The Problem is their shit build quality which they fucking know is going to fail yet they still send them out regardless. I m still bitter over the two pieces of shit I bought from Drop the Hifiman He 300 which both broke after 3 weeks and a day apart in the same exact spot on both. Personally I will never buy another Hifiman product ever again.

crashn2me61I don’t disagree with any of this. I keep wearing these (right now, actually) because they just sound great. but deep inside I know that one day in the near future they’re just going to stop working. The rattling persists. The headband is held together by thoughts and prayers. These things have the metaphorical life expectancy of a mayfly

Incredibly impressive for the price, and very good overall
I'm lucky since I have a big head so these fit absolutely fine. Extremely comfortable. And I'm fairly blown away by the sound. I'm currently deciding which of my closed backs to keep (Koss Pro4S, DT 770 Pro 80ohm or these) and I'm fairly sure I'm keeping these. Really impressive soundstage and separation. It's like being in your own sound chamber. I haven't tried them with FLAC files yet but the resolution seems very good too. As good as any other closed back I've tried. Amazing value for this price ($49) like, stupidly good value. I'd still happily pay $100 for them, probably more
