there is a lot of negativity around the new 3rd gen T1, but I think it is a really unique headphone for chilling at home/ watching movies.. it is especially good with different genres like jazz, 90's and new hiphop, edm and overall of today's genres; however, since it's an open back headphone, I don't recommend it for music which needs punchy bass (guitar and other similar instruments may sound better with this trait) and somewhere it lacks momentum, but since it's an open back headphone, it also wasn't made for that; the sound is not coloured, the upper midrange is recessed which you can feel at some tracks because it lacks momentum at a few tracks because of it, but it makes it really comfortable for longer sessions; only comparable headphone that I own is the dt 770 pro (32 ohm) and I can claim with confidence that this headphone is way above that level of sound which the dt 770 pro series can provide to you (I also can't really compare them because the dt 770 is a closed back design, but it is definitely better in clarity, soundstage of course and just in overall potential with different dac/ amps, where the dt 770 pro didn't really proved to be an improvement with a mid ranged dac+amp combo besides having a louder volume)
