Pros & Cons

Pros

This headphone is a perfect all-rounder. The price for what you get is fantastic. These are worth the bucks.

The straps are lightweight, seem to be the perfect length. I normally use comply foam tips for my iems, but the rubber tips on the h500a are pretty comfortable. Very lightweight and comfortable to wear.

And it doesnt work with sonys sound enhancements for some reason


I’ve had iems that cost more than twice as much that sounded half as good
