Yep! Excellent headphones, best value for money out there imo... i would like to try the more expensive models but in no rush as these sound great.
The only downsides i've noticed is that they can feel a tad tight and sweaty after 4+ hours of continuous use and i also had to replace the left speaker after the first few years of heavy use. Although that was after hours upon hours of daily listening when i was working in a studio, apart from that they have served me very well.
Although i love my headphones, in the end find i actually prefer feeling the vibrations of the music all over my body so tend to go with speakers (Mordaunt Short 906is) at high volume unless i want to hear fine details with headphones, the sub (XXLS400-DF) i have in my place is truly incredible and needs to be felt!
