They deserve their reputation. In short, they are worth every (in my case) euro and are the perfect pair of headphones for someone who simply loves, and very much cares about, their audio but is either unwilling or unready to dive deeper into the world of amplifiers and the like.
For a longer explanation: the comfort is as excellent as it looks like (they're actually ligher in my opinion than they might look). The sound is exactly that wonderfully detailed soundscape I was hoping for. The sounstage is a bit (but I do mean a bit) smaller than some other headphones I've used but it has still always managed to feel spacious - certainly never 'cramped'. That relative lack of it was a reason I was initially slightly hesitant to pick these - so if you're like me, a fellow enthusiastic of spaciousness: don't worry.
The build quality deserves its own paragraph. I move around a great deal while listening to music and other audio, and these have remained as good as news even after a year of that.
Finally, if you're like me and unsure if you can run the 80 ohms without an amp - I have a midrange desktop from 2018 and have had 0 issues.
