What customers say about "Features"
PSB Speakers M4U-1 High Performance Over-Ear Headphones
- There is a feature I like to use in my home studio, the interchangeable cord.
- The being able to switch the cord between sides is handy.
- Besides the seemingly transparent audio playback, another fantastic feature is the passive noise reduction with these.
- They really help to block out background noise without traditional active noise reduction technology.
- Also, the PSB M4U headphones are comfortable and the removable cord is a great feature.
PSB Speakers M4U-2 Noise Cancelling Over-Ear Headphones
- When you turn on the noise cancelling (NC) feature, this really boosts the signal.
- The mids are smooth and roll off beautifully. The bass is well controlled and doesn't muddy or interfere the mids.
- There is a built in amp you can turn on without activating the noise cancellation. This can be useful if your source lacks a good power amp.
- They can be used when your batteries run dry. This is a very important feature as you won't be left with a dead headphone when on the move.
- The only abysmal con I could even come up with is that you need to carry batteries in the provided case.
