I love this little baby! these mini headphones are one
mean machine! These AKGs has an added bass
boost that makes a bass lover like me very happy :D
i love the lows and mids, but the highs are slightly weak
plus the bass also aids in muffling the highs slightly.
The semi isolation cup design means that i am quite
protected from the hussle and bustle of the outside
environment and can enjoy my music :D Then make
however is not that impressive. The headband is just a
piece of metal and the parts are mostly of plastic. As
seen on the pic above, i snapped one side of the plastic
holder( have not contacted Asia Sounds for warrenty
services) and secured with with tape. But still, this
headphones are very good especially with their low
price range of about 80. Last i checked it can be
bought for 70 as it was on offer.
