Great sound and excellent value

These sound really good, especially considering their price point. I have them as my desktop go-to with FiiO K17 through balanced output using Roon as the source. When mildly EQ'ed in K17 they offer amazing clarity and detail, well on par with headphones that retail for more than twice. This is yet another excellent product from Fosi in my collection.

Exceptional Sound and Value

I own over 25 sets of headphones, and many of them are more expensive than this set. But after a few listens, this is my go-to set. The adjustments made in response to listener feedback are spot-on, and the sound is addictive to most genres of music. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I am so glad I made this purchase.
