Very good headphones with great fidelity and nice sound, you will enjoy them even if you are an audiophile with very stringent requirements. The only con is that they don't come with a 4.4 mm audio cable and its near to impossible to find an original replacement with a fair price

I love how Sony made a Semi Closed Headphone and make it sound like an open Back with amazing Bass response, pretty natural balanced sound in all other frequencies and a very nice Sound Stage and Imaging. Also the Pads on these headphone are 5 stars for comfort and durability. I love to use these on my commute around the city and on trains and airplanes and also in the bed at night as they leak very few sound outside. This is what we need... closed Headphones that have sound stage like open counterparts so we can use them everywhere without sacrificing sound quality and music experience. Now Sony please make a Z1R at the same price range of the Z7 and I will buy one.

I've had them 2 weeks and their sound quality is amazing you can play in style music there semi open so they have a great soundstage and has a good bass not over the top so they dont muddy up the mids just great sounding and very comfortable my only complain is the headphone cable is way to long for my needs and want to replace the ear pads more to how I like them and cant seem to find either
