Design and features:This home/studio-style on-ear model provides very good sound. Its open-air design doesn't muffle outside sounds so you'll be able to hear that door bell ring, train announcement, or car horn when you are wearing the headphones. The headphones have medium-high sensitivity so they can provide satisfying volume levels when used with home audio equipment and even lower-powered portable audio devices. Additional features include - Earcups swivel. This model comes with Mini-plug-to-1/4-inch-plug adapter.
Sound quality:We found the SR60x delivers sound quality that falls in the very good range - it reproduces music and voice very well although it does have some noticeable sonic quirks. The bass (as in bass drums, bass guitars, stand-up bass, etc.) has good impact and goes deep, but is somewhat prominent and boomy. The midrange (voices, guitars, horns, etc.) fairly even, but is slightly grainy, and a touch etched, and depending on the program material the bass can somewhat overwhelm the lower midrange. The treble (cymbals, the upper range of violins, etc.) extended and fairly detailed, but slightly subdued and a touch sizzly (sounds that should have a delicate shimmer have a sound reminiscent of bacon frying). The sound also has a good sense of liveliness and is open--sound-wise it seems like you don't have anything plugging up your ears. and does a decent job of recovering room ambience. Warmish character. The overall sound can best be summarized as open but somewhat bassy and slightly grainy.
Comfort and Fit:We found that these headphones produce a sense of moderate pressure on the ears.
As typical of on-ear models the ear pads might feel hot after prolonged use.
Large
Users with larger heads might find that the headband does not have enough adjustment range resulting in the headband pressing uncomfortably on the top of the head and/or the earcups not sitting properly on the ears.
Stability
Some users may find that when they lean far forward the headphones feel a bit unstable and shift forward.
Other noise
When the audio cord is used the sound of it rubbing on clothing may be faintly heard through the earphones.
