Pros

While they are not the most noise insulating, it's plenty enough. Build quality and construction is outstanding. I was pleasantly suprised at the sound quality and frequency response.

I do find that i have to drive these headphones at about the 12o clock mark on my mayflower or higher depending on the content im digesting

Competitiveness

It just all ends up sounding a little softer than youd expect

Running the 250ohm model on the ifi zen dac v2 and it powers it no problem as to be expected
