They feel cheap and have awful build quality imho.
I've got a pair of SR80i (?) that one of the L/R labels fell off, and had another pair before that where the connection jack developed a fault and became tempremental. I know they're cheaper end of the range, but still.
However I can wear them for hours and that what I do most of my pc gaming with. Maybe I've got a weird head, but I can wear them for longer than my Sony noise cancelling headphones, which get on my tits after a while.
I quite like the sound because, in honesty, I have desotroyed my higher frequency hearing over the years from abuse and I am well old now.
So if you're hearing is fucked and you've go a weird head, get some.

I’ve got a few sets and a couple of decent pairs but my daily drivers are still my Fidelio X2hr. They are like a glove. Nothing comes close to comfort and I can wear them for an entire day without even thinking about it.
Not a critical listening headphone but a good all rounder for listening to all kinds of media.

Got the 325x today. Oh my…I really like the sound and that’s with the standard pads. I’ll leave these on for now. I have the other ones which I can swap to. Sound way better than the SR80i and 125x that I’ve had previously and a great contrast to my 770s.

Man alive! I just managed to score a sound burger but scalpers made it like buying a PS5. Every colour I tried to check out sold out as I was putting my details in until I finally got the black one. Released at 9am every colour other than black was sold out by 9.05.
But, yeah, woo. I wanted one for my desk since they release the last one, so Im pleased.

They are cool. I’m it allowed things at the moment but I definitely would.

It actually sounds pretty good. Line in to my headphone amp sounds nice and its decent over bluetooth. Its got me twitching for some better bluetooth headphones, tho...
It is a gadget and its a bit of fun, but it is A Nice Thing for the office.

I'm really liking the high-impedance headphone jack of the new MacBooks. My Beyerdynamics with 250 ohms sound great, without the need for an amp.

Quite sad to discover my Shure Prologue 250 speakers aren't all that good. I thought they'd make nice reference monitors, as that's what they were designed to do, but I think they're just too old and sound kind of muddy and don't have the kind of top end I was hoping for.

From the photos I think the problem is you have two left speakers instead of one of each.

I suspect if you open them up the cones will have perished. Happens with all speakers. It’s not the hardest job in the world to find and fit replacements if they’re speakers you really love.
