Review Summary
2022-01-20T19:00:00
These headphones are a fantastic value for the pricetag that they usually command. They can be found on Amazon for a pretty decent price and honestly the most comparable headphones for a similar price that I can think of off the top of my head would be the Sennheiser hd560s and I think that really says a lot about klipsch because just to be clear...the reference over ear is the better sounding of the two. The only downside really is the build quality is just a bit subpar, the earcups and the headband feel very nicely cushioned but the plastic frame pieces just aren't very premium feeling and they creak quite a bit when flexing the headphones.
