Innovative and stylish design, Smooth, weighty, dynamic performance,
A bit too polite, Need tighter timing and greater clarity,
We have mixed feelings about the AudioQuests. While we may enthuse about the design and ergonomics, the audio performance is a less positive area.They certainly have some admirable qualities, and while they do many things well, a few fundamental flaws hol...

The NightHawk's physical design results in earphones that are comfortable and light weight, The NightHawk headphones have excellent bass dynamics, definition, and weight, The harmonic balance gives the NightHawk headphones an unfatiguing sonic character
Treble through the NightHawk sounds rolled off compared with other headphones, The NightHawk headphones do not fold or flatten for travel, Eyeglass wearers may find it difficult to get a complete seal around their ears while wearing glasses
