99 CLASSICS (2ND GEN)

The wood cups are genuinely beautiful in person, way warmer looking than photos suggest. Sound is rich and balanced straight out of the box, no amp needed with my phone. The second gen fixes pretty much everything people complained about the originals.

I've had these on my head for six hours straight during work calls and my ears aren't sore at all. The second gen tuning is noticeably tighter in the low end than what I remember from the originals. Genuinely happy with this purchase.

I've been wearing these on my commute for about three weeks and the metal headband frame keeps them feeling sturdy without pinching. The wood grain on the cups is genuinely nice to look at, and the second-gen tuning sounds cleaner than I expected at this price.
