Tight (not on the head), fast, neutral, comfy, very open for closed back design, sound a bit like listening to speakers ie well away from yer lugs (ears)
I took them out to photograph and found the ?plastic coating of the headband was perishing! Hence the stock image, sorry...

initially yes, you do wonder if you can handle them, but that soon passes when you get the fit right and your ears get used to it. a bit like getting a filling.. it feels wrong for a while then it just vanishes. sound is astonishing, and although ive tried, i cant stand the sound of normal cans now. my oppo planers are great but not really used now

Grant

Hifiman HE-400s - very nice but their 20 Ohm impedance makes them difficult to drive for current-starved headphone amplifiers
Fostex T50Rp Mk3 with Mayflower mods (also very nice but even more difficult to drive)
Koss KSC75 with PartsExpress headband and large earpads (ridiculously good sound for peanuts)
Apple AirPods Pro - best comfort and user experience on the market, but they're not really suitable for high quality music reproduction. I mostly use them for Zoom calls and while out and about.

I drive the Ethers directly from my OTL, just have suitable resistors in series and parallel in a wee box which connects to the speaker terminals of the amp and has a 4 pin XLR connector for the cans. Sounds superb, though run this way the cans are less sensitive than my speakers lol.
“Music has always been a matter of energy to me, a question of fuel. Sentimental people call it inspiration, but what they really mean is fuel. I have always needed fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio”
