Nice headphones, but not portable

- Summary: I got the brown and silver, which I think is a nice color combination. The ear cups really do noise cancel, blocking out all outside sounds.

Looks and sounds great...but you really need to use a headphone amp

- Summary: First thing I'd like to mention is the fact these are 32 ohm headphones...which means you will need a headphone amp to drive them properly.
