These headphones sound incredible at their sub $300 price. I can finally hear all the little details in songs I had been missing.
The Bloom Audio salesman who let me demo the unit was very helpful and professional.
Great headphone at the reduced price. This is my 3rd headphone (Senn HD6xx and Verum 1 v2). Sound was very good - more open than the HD6xx but not as much as the Verum - maybe I was expecting a bit more out of the XS though. Earcups are much larger - overall a much looser fit for my head with the headband in the smallest position. Ordering & shipping from Bloom was trouble free. This was my first order and I will definitely look at their products when considering new hifi purchases.
On sale for 200 to 250 these are a great bargain. They have a clear sound that reveals details in songs I thought I knew well. No Harsh treble and great bass that goes low! Not for anyone with a hat size smaller then 71/4.
I paired these with an IFI Hip DAC 3 and they sound great! Some songs benefit from the Bass boost feature if the hip DAC, but overall the standard sound is very pleasing and highly detailed.
