Pros & Cons

Pros

The soundstage is amazing. The only downfall is that separation isn't very precise due to how far away everything sounds. Still, these sound phenomenal. Sound quality is top notch.

The ad-500x headphones sound very good. The only thing that'd be better is if they were removable from the headset themselves. I also like that the headphones use the audio jack port instead of a usb port.

Great audio quality, not a ton of range on the bass but not much to say aside from nitpicking. What really sets them apart from their beyer & sennheiser counterparts is the comfort.

I listen to metal, electronica and a lot of vocal driven tunes which these will master. Only downside is that you can only enjoy these to the fullest by having flac audio. Best used with an amp or dac.



Cons

Bass is non existent. Audio is so corrupted its unusable. The jack on this headphone is really not the quality that i expected.

Cord keeps twisting and trying to coil back to the state it was in the package. Took a very long time of back and forth to get the warranty information and send back. Didn't expect a miracle.

    Definitely not recommended for outdoor use as the sound leaks due to its open back design but your ears dont get hot and sweaty either when you use it for a long time

    I dont like the cable that it comes it as it is non detachable and very long so for my personal use i would have liked a shorter detachable cable but others may like that

    Seriously good for gaming imo but not worth the 220ish price tag i waited for boxing day and only payed 120 which was worth it

    However they don’t sit on the head very well


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    They cup the heals well enough but the top head rest doesn’t support the overall weight of the headphones well enough to do so for periods of time


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    This the headphones end up falling abit and need readjustment every so often


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I do not game though i would imagine having precise 360 degree soundstage does help with that


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    You may have read from other reviews from inexperienced people that these have low sound qualityonly sound slightly better than cheap gaming headphones etc
