KEF M500 Headphones

From highly regarded British loudspeaker manufacturer KEF, the M500 headphones are lightweight, robust, and built for travel. Thanks to the company’s multidirectional Smart Hinge, the aluminum alloy frame automatically conforms to the shape of your head—sitting neither too tight nor too loose—and folds down for easy storage in the included carrying case. The memory foam headband and ear pads are breathable and sweat resistant for long listening sessions. Inside, the 40-millimeter neodymium drivers deliver a full-range high-definition response from 20 Hz to 20 kHz, with a great amount of musical detail. Along with a standard cable, you’ll get a cable with an inline mic and remote compatible with iPhones and other Apple devices.

In their Head-Fi review, Lan647 says, “In my humble opinion, the KEF M500 is up there on the top 3 list of best portable headphones I've listened to. Unless you want unnaturally emphasized lows or crave good isolation capabilities, the M500 will deliver the goods in spades.”
