We'll pass this one over to Luke Guillory, Esquire's commerce editor, who's a big fan of these Dyson headphones:

"People think I'm joking when I say how much I love these headphones. The audiophile, hi-fi publications have given them middling reviews, but I'm all-in. The sound is good, the noise-cancelling is great, and the look is amazing. Isn't that enough?

With headphones, I kind of want to replicate a live show. I'm sitting at my desk, cleaning the kitchen, or standing on the train, and I want that shit to rock. On the standard EQ, I found the Dyson OnTrac lacking, but once I switched to boost the bass, I couldn't be happier. When I'm on the train, with another human breathing in my face, I can throw Drive By Truckers in these things and rock the hell out. The drums kick, the bass gets big, and the guitar gets dirty. It's everything I need.

The place where these really stand out, though, is the look and feel. The look of the aluminum and interchangeable covers and earpads is unique in the market. All other headphones look the same, and I give massive props to Dyson for creating its own design language. And as for comfort, they're the most comfortable headphones I've used. The earpads are soft, the earcups are durable, and since they are quite flat, you can rest your head on the side of an airplane without any issue."
