Messy CSD, meaning a lot of internal reflections (not really sure how audible they are, but Hifiman headphones share this trait), not only that, it requires external amplification as well.

Good headphone, but still needs to be tethered. I also understand that it has a wireless version, but it lacks any DSP that would offer extra features.
My opinion, you don’t have to take it seriously.
I don’t go for what a person recommends, I go by the available data and experience and make my own conclusion. Not only that, I do not expect my opinion to be taken as a gospel, so feel free to disagree. My picks are based on much more than just active noise cancellation (a feature that is great to have), but these are genuinely great headphones technically and there are others that escape my knowledge and may be better than these.[/QUOTE
