Finally got some time to listen to the 99 classics I received last week. Although I would not call myself an experienced audiophile, putting these headphones on was a revelation. Suddenly I could hear things that were not there before and a wide soundstage opened in front of me. To quote my daughter when she put them on: "I am in a wide concert hall".
I got these on indiegogo for $200 in September last year (the silver piece, black one looks like too much bling for my taste). Shipping was delayed for a few months, but it was definitely worth the wait. Not sure where they sell them now, but if you can, I recommend to at least test them and see if you like them.
There are some downsides too:
- tight fit that may become tiring. Haven't had time to put them on for a few hours to see how they feel. Short listening session was ok.
- smallish earcups
- braided cable that resonates when touching clothes
I financed their campaign because I wanted to finance a Romanian company (I am from Romania too, but no connection to them) and their idea sounded interesting. I never hoped to get such a quality piece.
