I've owned these since 2021 and they don't sound particularly good in my honest opinion. The upper bass is boomy, the presence region around 4-6ish khz is pretty harsh (this one might just be my unit as it doesn't show up on some measurements, but it's definitely harsh on mine) and the upper treble above 10khz is very subdued. This certainly works for some tracks, but for the vast majority I find myself craving a completely different sound signature.

That being said, these are the single most comfortable headphones I've ever owned or tried out, and their build quality is also excellent. I've gotten a lot of use out of them for things like binging shows, long gaming sessions with friends etc. where comfort is of utmost importance and sound quality is not as easily noticeable, and with all that usage the earpads look and feel brand new. They're just not my cup of tea when it comes to listening to music. EQ helps but there's still some messiness in the treble that I haven't been able to fully eliminate. Oratory1990's latest preset seems to be the best so far.

TL;DR: Highly recommended for comfort and build quality, not so much for sound quality.
