Hey guys I'm looking at the momentum over ear (not a fan of on ear headphones) I like the style and how lightweight they are for traveling but are they worth £250? Do you have any other suggestions if you think otherwise?

Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

They are worth the money if you really need the style factor.

I would get AT m40x for travelling, much cheaper so you can throw them around more and not care :D

The Momentums are on ear headphones, not over the ear by the way

Life.exe is missing

You can get them both on and over ear

I do personally own them, the Brown variant.

 

They are well built, nice usage of materials, great sound, perfect durable carrying case. The only con is, that you are indeed paying premium for the stylish design.

 

 

 

But I can really recommend them.

Try before you buy - they only sound good if they seal around your head well, but they don't seal correctly for everyone.

Ehhh. Ive been using them for travel for about a month now. I have a pretty big head so I was initially worried abouting them sealing well/ being comfortable. I just bent the metal a bit and adjusted the ear cups and now they fit great. I'm sure you could find something that sounded better for £250 but you really are paying for how small and good looking they are. I don't think i'd pay more that $200 for them.
