Best Compact Closed Headphones

Best headphones I own.

This thing can hold so much. The origami system allows it to hold more than you would think while still zipping closed and compact.

Best headphones for swimming. I've tried a few and these are the best headphones for swimming.

I'm glad that I bought it. Best headphones ever. :headphones:

I have had several headphones down through the years. These are the BEST ever.

Best Mixer and compact

Best headphones I've ever owned! Outstanding!

I've been living in closed-back world for a few years thanks to office life. As my job transferred to remote and I had my wife sitting next to me, being able to hear her and things around the house became more important. I snagged these after a good amount of research around decent-to-good open-back gaming headphones (without being Gamer headphones). These are incredibly comfortable and sound great (running through a Schiit Fulla) with a great punch and nothing sounding too muddled. Definitely one of my more rapid favorites in my headphone lineup.

These headphones showed me there is indeed, a difference between closed back headphones and open back headphones. These , I think, are listed as semi-open back. I really like the sound. Arrived quickly and was well packaged.

For the money, these little wonders are as good as it gets. Clean mids and highs, great soundstage, and visceral bass Pros: -Sound incredible for the money; can compete with many much higher-priced phones, especially of the boutique variety (Bose, Skullcandy, etc) -Comfortable for long stretches -Don't require a dedicated amplifier (but can still benefit from one) -Simple, functional, and durable design Cons: -Pleather earcups get quite hot; not unique to these but rather a characteristic of all closed and semi-closed headphones with pleather cups Other thoughts: -Quite large. These compete with the Everglide S500's for being the biggest cans I own -These aren't true closed phones. As such, they do not provide the isolation you may expect Final thought: -If you only have $40 to spend on full-size headphones, there is simply no point in looking any further. They aren't just great for the money. They are just plain great!
