Amazing headphones

I have these headphones for more than 3 years, using them everyday and they still sound brand new. I just had to replace the earpads but expected after using them as much as I did. No problem with the drivers, the padding, the construction of the headphones, cables. All still brand new.

They fit well and sound good however there is too much noise bleed from outside the headphones. I heard a cell phone alarm from the next room in a coat pocket. They do not cancel any outside noise

Still have an old set of AKGs I thought sounded good but the new ones are much better with a lot less noise.

Not good for me - bass
on November 17, 2025

They may not have been expensive, but what good is it if they don't have bass?
I might not know much about this; I'm an amateur, making music as a hobby in Ableton Live, and I've only recently been using these headphones.
In the final mix, I boost the bass because there's not enough of it with the reference K72 headphones, and what's the result? The music mixed this way sounds terrible on another audio source because there's way too much bass, dominating the entire project.
It's a trap...
This is a serious problem for me; I'm not happy with these headphones.
They're basically useless.
