The days when sound quality was top priority
Compared to the new line-up of XB cans from Sony, these definitely look retro. Who cares how comfortable, or pleasant sounding headphones are if they don't make strangers on the bus envy you... Oh, wait a second, anyone who enjoys, really has love for music. Personally, I use them for any era of hip hop, R&B, rap and the kicker, any metal band sounds outrageous on these headphones. Music that might make other cans rattle, or create distortion on only low low frequency, these take it. You don't need an amp to push them but like any pair of IEM on or over ear device, an amp/dac always brings out the true colors. These are not likely to be found in any serious recording studio, or around the neck of a cameraman at an NFL game. There not meant to be a monitor, nor only meant to be enjoyed by bass heads, everyone could use a pair of the original Beats in their repertoire. Quickly, these cans will get more and more desirable and less of them will go un modified. If you haven't already, swoop yourself a pair! P. S. 500 or 1000 are a personal taste, and I find the 700 to be the best all around for any genre of music.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

This headphone is the love of my life!
I got this headphone second hand since they are not making new ones of these anymore. I had it shipped from Japan. The quality is awesome and I just love the how soft it is. I had the previous XB500 for three years and it was great but broke from the plastic handle. The XB700 is softer sturdier and the ear 'muffins' are bigger so it completely hugs the ear. Love it. I'm wondering what I should do if i lose this on! :'(Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Miniature subwoofers on your ears.
My god these things are beastly, may need an amplifier for better bass response, but well worth every pretty penny. They're very well built, massive in size, almost intimidating. But the sound quality is absolutely superb.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Pretty awesome set of cans
Awesome fit, not tight around my big head. I was really looking for the XB1000 but pretty good still. Sound is very detailed and bass is really good, sound stage is not as wide as I thought it would be.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
