Transparent & detailed sound but flimsy cables/plugs and not for bass-heads...

My first decent headphone. They are relatively lightweight for their size and can be worn for many hours without causing any pain or discomfort. And despite being made almost entirely out of plastic, they are actually quite sturdy (although they look and feel quite "plasticy" and cheap).
The weakest point however is the Oxygen Free Copper cable and plugs. They are long, thin and very flimsy. I had to replace mine several times when rolling over them with office chair. Costing 50€ for a replacement cable, I paid as much for the cables as for the cans themselves. After some years, replacing cables multiple times, I started having audio dropouts, presumably caused by the little, equally flimsy little plugs/connectors.
Soundwise, it was a big step forward for me at the time. The sound is quite neutral and detailed, especially in the mid and highs. Also great stereo field. Not so good for bass heavy music, however. I later moved to Beyerdynamic (DT990's, DT880's and DT240). A bit more colored but build quality improved significantly (and with Sonarwork calibration I get a decent, balanced sound as well but with plenty of bass).
