Review: Amazing. Incredible. Status Audio. - Alright, so let me tell you a couple things. I like Status Audio, I got some of the HD One headphones a while ago, and was blown away by the quality for the price. Same goes for these... And then some. These are the Status Audio CB-1 Headphones. Right out of the desertcart shipping box, you see the awesome packaging that Status Audio boxed this gift from the heavens inside. Flip it open, and you see the headphones in all their glory. They're amazing, hard to find words to describe them. They're incredible. These awesome over-ear cups, the padded head strap, it's more than comfortable. It's an experience, and one that I would happily keep having, and I'll keep these headphones, might even get more. Sound, they've got that too. Sound great to me, get plenty loud, and they're built for amps and computers. Phones don't really provide enough power to get them really workin well, but that's alright. Two cords, one straight, one coiled, and I've got to say, the locking cable into the headphones, super fan of that. As well as the screw-on 1/4" attachment. So many good things in these headphones, and for $80? Yeah, I'll do that any day. I got these headphones before jumping on a plane, and while there's not active noise cancelling, they do a decent job of passive noise cancelling. Of course, if you crank the volume up, then you won't hear much of anything else, but if you're not inclined to do something like that, then you might be able to hear when someone is trying to get your attention. Not a big deal, for this price range of under $100, it's something I can live without. Are you thinking of getting these headphones? Are you someone with ears? Do you want a pair of headphones that will forever change the way you look at headphones? Have you ever thought, 'wow, maybe if companies didn't spend so much money on advertising, and just put out a good product, would it be cheaper'? If you've ever thought anything like that, then get these headphones. If you've never thought something like that, then ask those questions and get these headphones. I just don't know why they aren't already in your cart.
Review: These 'phones are pocket-friendly and audio-engaging - best of both worlds - I came to these after having used 2 gaming headsets (G430, then Arctis 3). Both of them had issues with the cable connections that led me to buy the next pair (no soldering skills here...). Average use for these 2 previous headsets was 2 years with extended game times. On average 3 hours a day during the week and maybe some 6-7 hours on weekend days... wife permitting. For gaming? Really? HECK YEAH! In comparison, the CB-1 has an outstanding sound signature by comparison to my 2 previous headsets mentioned above. Though they were not top end hardware, they were no slouches either and are among the most commonly used headsets these days. The best part? THIS COMPARISON WITH THE CB-1 WAS RIGHT OUT OF THE CB-1 BOX WHICH CAME IN LAST NIGHT! Everything sounds crisp and detailed with good positioning sound stage which is a must in any game. I played an "older" game (SWTOR) which I consider not to be at the same audio level as newer games of today. Wonder how Wildlands will sound? Hmmm... The CB-1 admittedly does not have a mic but there are enough options to help out out there that this should not be a concern. What about music though? Well... I have a few IEM's against which I made my comparison and WOW! I am hearing details like never before. I even have IEM's that I consider "borderline audiophile" IEM's (I am no sound expert so I don't feel I need the expert hardware). I am now hearing details I hadn't heard before without having to spend a ton of money, which was the best part for me. Spent less than some of the IEM's I have (sigh). These 'phones are pocket-friendly and audio-engaging. Build quality? Light. Comfortable. Slight head pressure but they are still new. I assume they will loosen up with time but I don't mind the pressure. It is just enough to insure a full closure of the pads onto my head even when wearing my glasses (which are not pushed into my head with these stock pads). I will say though... they do feel a bit on the "fragile" side but I am guessing that's part of the formula to get them to be so light and comfortable. Just make sure you treat them with a loving hand, don't throw them around or into a back pack (not travel-friendly IMO) and you should be OK. Is there a need to change the pads? Not IMO. The pads, even though not of memory foam, are amazingly accommodating and make a good closure for an enjoyable listening session. If you can find replacement pads of your liking and want to spend the cash... do it. You can always come back to the stock pads. Just think of how you will cope with the guilt feeling of having spent cash unnecessarily ;-p . Speaking of time... I believe these 'phones will physically loosen up over time as I already mentioned above. I also know that the drivers will also loosen up as well so the best sound is still yet to come! Remember, I only got them last night! But, should something happen to these 'phones the price point is such that replacing them (if not by warranty) will not be a hard thing to do. These are pocket-friendly after all. I wouldn't have minded to pay full MSRP on them. Hope this has helped any of you wondering if it's worth making the plunge into buying these. If you are not an audiophile and cam keep good care of your things... just do it. You will not regret it. EDIT: Some spelling...

## Features

- STUDIO STANDARD: Praised by top musicians, producers, and audio engineers, the CB-1 headphones are an industry standard in recording studios around the world. The CB-1s have received critical acclaim from the most discerning audiophiles on the web as well as top technology editors.
- 50MM Drivers: Large 50mm drivers deliver studio quality audio with a wide, expansive soundstage that puts you in the room with your favorite musicians. Hear music the way the artists, producers, mix and mastering engineers intended.
- DESIGNED FOR COMFORT: The CB-1’s padded headband and overstuffed earpads were designed to be comfortable during multi-hour recording sessions. Its over-the-ear design fully encloses ear, offering passive noise cancelling without putting extra pressure on your head. The CB-1’s adjustable headband ensures a snug fit on your head, and clicking ridges allow for full customizability. .
- TWO CABLES INCLUDED + ¼ ADAPTOR: The CB-1 comes with two 9-foot audio cables - one coiled, one straight. Both have a custom locking mechanism that keeps them attached to the headphones, eliminating the risk of dislodging the cable. The CB-1 is compatible with any 3.5mm audio cable, but it will lack this locking feature. We also provide a ¼ adaptor plug for use with professional audio equipment.
- UNDERSTATED STYLE: The CB-1’s minimalist, unbranded aesthetic will never lose its luster or fall out of fashion. A slim frame doesn’t awkwardly protrude sideways, and the CB-1 can be folded to become compact for travel.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How is the isolation? Tons of bleed? Could you use these to track drums, for instance?**
A: hello manderson!I wouldn't say tons of bleed, and isolation is there. But obviously at louder volumes the headphones will leak, and they aren't noise-cancelling or anything. For tracking drums I'm going to assume you'll be monitoring with these (correct me if I'm wrong)? If so I wouldn't recommend them (trust me, I'm a drummer too), instead I'd recommend the Shure SE215 IEMs. But for anything else like listening to music and mixing these are a no-brainer.I hope this helps!

**Q: Pls what is the impedance of these headphones?**
A: Thank you for your question. The impedance of the CB-1 headphone is 32 ohms.

**Q: is this headphone good for csgo**
A: I had to google "CSGO", but if you mean Counter Strike, these probably aren't for you if you need to chat with other players.  There's no microphone on these.  You may want to check out the Status Audio HD One headphones that do have a mic on one of the two detachable cables that come with that set.If you don't need to chat, these headphones are very nice for solo gaming - that's what I mainly use them for.

**Q: Are these Bluetooth?**
A: no, but you can make them bluetooth :Dhttp://a.co/gZRhC1I

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great sounding cans for a great price
*by S***T on July 14, 2017*

I will start by saying I am NOT an audiophile; I just like nice sounding headphones. My "collection" of cans and earbuds consist of V-Moda M100, V-Voda Crossfade LP, Apple Airpods, Bose QuietComfort 20. I like earbuds for my daily commute (NYC subway) and nice over ear headphones for home TV media and PC media and gaming. Recently, I wanted another cheaper pari for my PC as backup to my M100's and I thought the CB-1's may fit the bill. Wow, they are great. Keep in mind that these are great FOR THE PRICE. They sound fantastic. Not like my V-Moda's but great nonetheless. Bass is punchy (not muddy) and the highs are pronounced. I really enjoy the sound. Not too much of anything and just right. Great sounding monitors. They do NOT cancel out sound very well. My V-Moda's create a much better seal around my ear. I believe that because the CB-1's have such a thick cusion around the ear, it allows more sound to travel in. However, because of the thickness, these are very comfortable. My gripe with these is the quality. I knew that they are cheap but wow, these are cheap feeling. Plastic for everything. I feel that if I drop them once or twist them just slightly, that they will break. I am not confident tha these will last more than 6-12 months, but for sixty bucks I am okay with that. Additionally, the pleather around the headband is so thin. A tiny scrape of anything would quickly tear this fake leather; and then peeling would start. I am extremely careful with these and hang them up after every use. These would not be good for travel or everyday use (like my trusty M100's). I cannot stress the importance of the price. I would not pay anymore than sixty for these. Anything higher and you should look elsewhere. I also would strongly suggest these be used very delicately and hang or put away when not in use to prolong the life. Otherwise, at sixty buxks, these are a no brainer. I would absolutely recommend.
