purchase the Senn 's have need a replacement for 30 year old akg 's . research the brand , and although love the AKG 's , decide to take chance on Senn 's base on positive user review find . so far have not be disappoint ! for both vinyl and cd , sound quality seem well balanced . they be a little ` clunkier ' then my old akg 's , however they be still pretty light , and comfortable . I would prefer a little longer cord , but this just base on distance between my receiver , and couch where listen from . delivery as usual be quick and efficient by Amazon . Have have for about 5 month , highly recommend so far !
