Great budget headphones with great tone for the price.

These monoprice cans are easily the best bang for buck closed back bluetooth headphones I've heard, and I'm extremely hard to please. I've got a Sennheiser 280PRO & 555 & 58X & 6XX, Hifiman HE4XX, Monolith M565 & M570, and Koss porta pro & kph30's to name a few.



Bass: 6/10 Accentuated bass. More prominent from 40-100Hz, lacking in deep sub bass and slightly muddy.



Mids: 3/10 Reserved with a major dip from 2-4KHz. Lacking in vocal detail. V-shaped.



Treble: 8/10 Good detail, not sibilant or offensive. Follows the harman target fairly well.



Soundstage: 5/10 Moderate. High end sparkle helps with sound-stage, but it's still closed back.



Isolation: 3/10 Pretty poor. Cheap housing lets in outside noise pretty easily and adjusting the phones exhibit lots of noise from handling.



Build: 3/10 Passable. The hinges are the weak point. I actually like the pleather pads. They offer a good seal.



Comfort: 6/10 Good. A bit warm after long periods, but they are comfy.



Wired Performance: 8/10. When the unit is powered off, it works like a normal headphone. It can be driven with an apple usb-c to 3.5 adapter with ease to very loud levels. Great!



Bluetooth Performance: 7/10. AptX is considerably better than SBC, but it's no LDAC. I don't hear any artifacts from running a frequency sweep.



Internal Amp: 7/10. Good power. It gets loud and provides ample dynamics. Very minor hiss that is audible at low volumes.



Value: 10/10. I've spent much more on much worse performing cans.



Compared to Aiwa Arc-1: The Aiwas have much better midrange(almost mid-forward) and overall better transparency. The build quality is phenomenal.



Compared to Taotronics BH060's: The taotronics are built much better, but sound lo-fi in comparison, and lacks the punch that these monoprice headphones exhibit.



Compared to Soundcore space nc: The soundcore's a better competitor with a similar tune, but much better build quality and comfort. I'd still give the edge to the monoprice headphones for sound quality.



Overall 7/10: Worth buying.
