Really great sound for CLOSED BACK

These sound rather wide for closed back, and also have the benefit of leaking almost no sound as well. I got these for $ and it was more than worth the price.

AUDEZE EL-8

Excellent crisp and clear sound, a little heavy but comfortable. Great design and excellent materials.

Rated 4 out of 5

Amazing build quality, solid sound performance.

Great clarity, speed and articulation while being private. Not very bass heavy, so if you want to "feel" the bass, this would not be great for that. It is able to display lower frequencies well, just not very powerfully.

Great set of headphones

I bought these for my wife who spends hours upon hours watching Anime and playing video games and she absolutely loves them. I did buy a amp to go with them off amazon and it pushes them perfectly!!

By Jeremy H.

The closed-back EL-8 offers all the benefits of the open-back EL-8 - flexible, lightweight and loaded with new technology - while isolating the listener and reducing ambient noise as no sound escapes the earcups. The EL-8 closed-back is also sensitive enough to be driven directly by portable players and smartphones, but an external amplifier produces better results. They're built with superb craftsmanship, wood veneer accents and enormous attention to detail.
