I bought these because they always intrigued me. I missed the (mass drop offering) and wanted the fabric cushion version (95X). I saw these here and bought them on the spot. They are everything I was hoping for. EXTREMELY light and comfortable for long listening sessions. Some may complain they feel cheap.. its made this way to be light almost weightless for a transparent sound experience...

I also own multiple Audeze (LCDX/LCD2/LCD2C) and Sennheiser (HD6XX) headphones and like these the best because they don't sound forced.

They are very "natural" sounding not bass cannons. For acoustic/ jazz / relaxed rock etc it really sounds like you are "there" It's really hard to explain without experiencing it yourself. It is kind of like wearing glasses without their lenses but you can see perfectly out of the frames when you have them on. Think this way in terms of sound! The bag is also a nice way to store them. I am running the energizer off off an XDUOO XA-10 line out since it has an amazing AKM Dac and these things just sing.

Again Sound A+++ Build A (Great warranty makes it an A) A+++ total package.

***Also, if somehow these were marketed to gamers... you can hear footsteps better then anything else...)***

This is my third pair of ESPs. You can't beat these electrostatics for transient response. My old ears appreciate the sound character of these cans that makes up for my age-related hearing issues- issues that many many more older audiophiles have than care to admit, including professional audio equipment reviewers. Unlike with dynamic or planar headphones, with the ESPs I hear lyrics and movie dialog clearly with ease without having to turn up volume to ear blasting levels. Music is well defined and balanced - no heavy bass thumping. I use some EQ to correct flaws in recordings. Overall, these are the best of the several dozen headphones I've bought, sold or demo'd over the 50 years I've been in the audio hobby game.

The ESP/95X is nice. The power supply is ok delivering the details with quality DAC. I like the ear cup designs and won’t put pressure on ears. I can hear classical musics and vocals details from designs.
