The box of these headphones itself weighs at least a KG, this is what took us aback but then it is Harman Kardon packaging, you would expect they would impress from the very start. The product is made only for iPod, iPhone and iPad, this may disappoint few souls.

First Impressions

These headphones have some serious weight, this is due to the metal headbands. Just like the packaging, the headphones are quite fan­cy looking. We attached the 3.5mm jack to an iPhone and there was pure bliss. The true bass experience is quite satisfying. The way these headphones are designed, the closed back offers great noise reduction. The rectangular design of the ear pieces fit perfectly too. One setback was the detachable metal bows, even while simply adjusting the headphone they land up in the palm of your hands. This was quite irritating.

Review

On performance grounds, and purely on performance these headphones are quite superior. The headphones are equipped with a unique baffle that creates air flow that extends low frequencies. As a result, CL headphones provide better bass. The novelty element to these headphones are the exchangeable metal bows that could have been avoided. The idea of using metal for the body was quite good but they could have possibly tried reducing the weight of the product. They are very comfortable on one's ears but one cannot put up with it for long hours. The steel hinges connectors scare you at times as you feel they may snap the main wires.

We experienced no trouble using the micro­phone. It works perfectly the way it should be. The sound and voice reception on both ends was crystal clear.

They are very comfortable on one's ears but one cannot put up with it for long hours.

Verdict

For the price at which they are offered, just under '10,000 it is quite steep with several substitutes being available for less. Yes, they do offer fantastic per­formance but these headphones are meant only for those who would not use it roughly.
