TL;DR: This is the most enjoyable headphones I've used but I had to deal with defects. Working pair are still a bit stiff, but it's everything I wanted it to be. Maybe a bit more distortion than I expected, but in the end it's a really fun set of headphones.
My first pair had scratchy earcups when I adjust them, but the right earcup was worse. I got my replacement pair, and both earcup adjustments are equally scratchy. I would not expect this from a pair of $200 headphones, and I would return them if I thought it would take less than 3 months, but here we are.
They sound really good though, like a less-shouty DT990, which is exactly what I bought them for. Bass transients are super fast, to the point where I thought I put planars on by accident. The headband adjustment and clamping force is too sloppy, especially with the aforementioned scratchy earcup adjustment, but.. Once I get them secured on my head how I like them, overall I'm happy with the sound.
