A 75mm piezoelectric CrystalCore open-back that is very hard to drive and very rewarding when it is: huge stage, fast transients, big bass, no sibilance on this revision, light and comfortable on the head.

<p>A very hard to drive but, when properly driven, phenomenal open-back: a huge, precise stage, fast resolving treble without sibilance, deep bass and a light, comfortable fit.</p>
