Excellent but highly recommended replacing the cable.
I got these to use as my daily drivers after using a Pc37x for gaming and AthM50x for editing and I absolutely love them. Super light and comfortable on my head just like the Pc37x with nice clean sound. I’m a huge fan of the velour padding since I don’t have to worry about it peeling/flaking like the pleather on so many other cans. The only thing I can criticize is the cable. It’s not bad, just way too long to run from my desktop amp to my head. My amp is within arms reach when I’m sitting at my desk and this only comes with a ~10 foot long cable. Still four stars though since it’s such an easy replacement.
Zuko107I use a New Fantasia one I got off Amazon for $12 or so. Nothing terribly fancy, but it sounds fine and it's much more manageable than the monster cable these come with. As for the pads, I don't have any experience with those.
