How can these be so good at such a low price? (alien.top)

EQ'ing that bass in is effortless. Got a 4.4mm cable for them with a nice braid.

I do gaming with them and it just feels so freaking wide.

I'm a percussion guy. Drums and intricate percussive ellements, in music, sound blissful.

Try listening to Dinossaur - OTR Remix, close your eyes and have fun.

The dirty secret is that it's not hard to make headphones that sound good. I'd be curious on cheap planars how much of the cost is the drivers and how much is everything else.

The original came with a really bad cable.
Later versions came with a nicer one (the one I have)
It's stuff like that ...

That's actually a legit point. What I felt was channel imbalance ended up being a bad cable itself
