Bought accidentally in 2003. I used to have other models in this price range but they deteriorated rapidly. This one withstood almost everything. Astonishing quality: I'm not very tidy, I'm easily irritable and the headphones flew several times against the wall...
Exchangeable cable (which is a basic feature for good headphones).
The sound isn't linear nor unpleasant. However, I won't use them anymore for mixing because I bought the MK240 which are much more transparent, linear and comfortable.
Very big drawbacks: closed headphones with an unbearable headband. You won't stand them after one hour. I have tinnitus problems which become stronger each time I use the headphones because of the pressure against my ears (as if I would clench my teeth tightly). I don't have this problem with the AKG (half-open headphones).
You can use them for DJing or recording applications, you can even listen to music but that's not their main purpose. Hi-fi freaks and sound engineers, this product is not for you...
