EXCELLENT SOUND BALANCE.
One of the best headphones i have used for enjoying music. Better base rendering than my previous favourites(AUDEZE LCD-2,Sennheiser HD 600/650,Ultrasone 900 pro,MDR Z7 etc.) However the cable broke within 4 weeks of use,which was disappointing in such an expensive product.

ayurmonkThe cable broke on mine too, I'm thinking of getting a set of periapt cables for the various headphone connectors I need and call it a day.

adeadcrabThanks adeadcrab for your comment. Now there’s a small sense of satisfaction I am not the only one hard done by!😂😂😂 I had to break open the moulding on one of the connectors, cut the broken wire and resoldered the lead. I don’t know how long it will last! If you chance upon a good affordable replacement lead which doesn’t mess with the sound, please share and I shall be grateful. Warm regards and happy hunting for the cable!

ayurmonkRead through all the reviews and discussion page for the Elex here on Drop, there's a fair few cases of it happening. Periapt make decent quality cables at a lower price point than the high end cables that cost hundreds, the one for the Elex connector is here - https://periaptcables.com/products/8-type-8-dual-3-5mm I'm thinking of getting one terminated in XLR, and ask them to make an XLR->1/4 adapter cable so I can use single ended output without getting a second cable.

ayurmonkBoth cables broke for me. The XLR cable broke in 6 months and the 1/4" broke in 2 weeks! The headphones are AMAZING, but the cables are absolute garbage. The fact the cables are super stiff as well, may have led to the connections breaking. Horrible cables. Since I live in Canada, replacement cables ordered over the internet will cost me almost $150 USD! I agree, for such a premium product, the cables should be SIGNIFICANTLY better.
