Review: AiAiAi TMA-1

I may not be an audiophile but I always like to try some gear that would change how my favorite songs would sound. I came by these cans which are made by Danish company AiAiAi (pronounced Eye-Eye-Eye), and when I say Danish you should expect extreme yet cool minimal looks, there are chrome no logos, just a rugged matte black headphones, simple as that.

 The TMA-1 was designed by DJs for the DJs, their rugged finish gives them great durability and a nice touch, they are not "I'm the big shot DJ" flashy cool but the professional clean looking cool. they come with a coiled cable for a better movement range for DJs, but you can always change it for a straight short cable for portable use, and yes they can be portable as they are really light weight. also you get 2 pairs of semi-leather and foam earcups, Semi leather is the one you should stick with, not that the foam ones aren't comfortable but it's a sound wise selection. They were also a great fit and sturdy out of the box without any headband adjustments and didn't feel like going to fall off with movement. Packaging is really superb for headphones at this price. 

Sound wise I was really impressed with the first try to be honest, the sound was pretty dark and muddy at first so I played around with the EQs then I turned EQs off and realized, this is how the song should be, and it really sounded better without any EQ, bass is strong yet doesn't cover the mids, you get pretty detailed bass and mids so vocals are clear and crisp while the highs are sweet and don't give you fatigue, the sound is really balanced with no compromise.

All and all, I seriously think you can't get a better deal than the TMA-1 with this price range (200-300$), The cool minimalist and rugged design isn't given justice by any photo, you gotta hold and see them yourself, the verdict? Highly Recommended.
