First impressions.<\/h4>\n

Many years ago, I worked for my parents who own a video production company. Because it is a family business, you inevitably end up wearing many hats and being the czar of many different jobs. I mainly managed projects and worked as a video editor. On production, there were times that I was called on to work as an audio tech and was made to wear headphones on long production days. In those days, having a really good set of headphones that picked up every nuance of sound was essential to making sure the client got what they needed.\u00a0Many years ago, I worked for my parents who own a video production company.

Naturally, my first impression of these headphones is based off of the look of them. They have a classic over-the-ear style that is highlighted by a blue LED light<\/strong> that indicates the power for the noise canceling. The padding on the ear pieces seems adequate for extended usage periods.<\/p>\n

They are wired headphones, but the 3.5mm stereo mini-plug cable is detachable. Something else I noticed right of the bat was the very nice carrying case that comes with them. It has a hard plastic exterior with a soft cloth interior that helps to protect the surface of the headphones from scratches. I never truly appreciated cases for headphones until I started carrying them from place-to-place. Now I can\u2019t imagine not having a case.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row unlock_row=”yes” unlock_row_content=”” row_height_use_pixel=”” row_height_percent=”50″ override_padding=”yes” h_padding=”2″ top_padding=”0″ bottom_padding=”0″ back_image=”11296″ parallax=”yes” overlay_alpha=”60″ equal_height=”” gutter_size=”3″ shift_y=”0″ overlay_color=”color-wayh” back_position=”center top” back_color=”color-wayh”][vc_column column_width_use_pixel=”” column_width_percent=”100″ position_horizontal=”center” position_vertical=”middle” align_horizontal=”align_center” expand_height=”” override_padding=”yes” column_padding=”2″ style=”dark” parallax=”” overlay_alpha=”50″ gutter_size=”3″ medium_width=”0″ desktop_visibility=”” mobile_visibility=”” zoom_width=”0″ zoom_height=”0″ shift_x=”0″ shift_y=”0″ width=”1\/1″][vc_custom_heading heading_semantic=”h6″ text_size=”h1″ text_font=”font-134980″ text_uppercase=”” text_italic=”” separator=”” separator_color=”” separator_double=”” sub_lead=”yes” sub_reduced=”yes” text_weight=”300″ text_height=”fontheight-357766″ subheading=”John Williams”]It\u2019s safe to say that because of my unique professional experiences, I\u2019ve tested out a lot of headphones.[\/vc_custom_heading][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row unlock_row=”” unlock_row_content=”yes” row_height_use_pixel=”” row_height_percent=”0″ override_padding=”yes” h_padding=”2″ top_padding=”3″ bottom_padding=”2″ parallax=”” overlay_alpha=”100″ equal_height=”” gutter_size=”3″ shift_y=”0″][vc_column column_width_use_pixel=”yes” column_width_percent=”100″ position_horizontal=”center” position_vertical=”top” align_horizontal=”align_left” expand_height=”” override_padding=”” column_padding=”2″ style=”” font_family=”” back_image=”” back_repeat=”” back_attachment=”” back_position=”” parallax=”” overlay_color=”” overlay_alpha=”50″ gutter_size=”3″ medium_width=”0″ desktop_visibility=”” mobile_visibility=”” zoom_width=”0″ zoom_height=”0″ shift_x=”0″ shift_y=”0″ css_animation=”” animation_speed=”” animation_delay=”” column_width_pixel=”800″][vc_column_text text_lead=””]<\/p>\n

A perfect fit.<\/h4>\n

Once I gave the headphones a thorough once-over exam, I tried them on. As I mentioned, they have a classic over-the-ear style<\/em> and just looking at them, the padding on the ear pieces seem adequate and the peak of the headband seemed to be a bit lacking, but you don\u2019t really know comfort unless you try on the product. So, I slipped the headphones on and found them to be exquisitely comfortable.\u00a0In order to test how voices sounded, and the overall art of sound mixing, I pulled up Netflix on my iPad Air 2 and watched a few minutes of a movie to hear all the nuances of the film. None of them were lost. In fact, I ended up hearing sounds that I hadn\u2019t heard before. Echoes\u2026birds chirping\u2026wind blowing through trees\u2026breathing of the characters\u2026it was very impressive what the headphones ended up bringing out for me.<\/p>\n

Quality.<\/h4>\n

Now that I had the headphones on my head, I was finally ready to plug and play some music. I plugged the provided cable into the jack on the headphones and then the one on my iPhone 6. Then I called up Pandora. I tend to have a very eclectic music purview and have many stations set up for different moods. From John Williams<\/strong> to Fallout Boy<\/strong>, the sound quality of these headphones was remarkable. There is an amazing depth of sound and incredible highs and lows that make listening to music a truly breathtaking experience.<\/p>\n
