First things first... and in the case of a brand new pair of headphones that means introducing them to the Dire Straits. Then some Two Feet maybe?

@fribbledom This is possibly a little pretentious, but I always appreciate the detail I hear with classical or instrumental jazz recordings. The instruments really come to life. Brad Mehldau's Highway Rider is a good go to for me. Miles Davis's Kind of Blue is so good that even non-jazz people like it. I also listened to the Duke Ellington and John Coltrane album for the first time in a while last night and reminded myself how much I enjoyed it. Congrats on your new cans π

@greyduck Easily the best closed headphones I've ever owned. It's not that they're far superior to the Bose or Sennheiser bluetooth models, but personally I think they just offer slightly better noise cancelling, slightly better battery time, slightly better build quality and (certainly) better drivers.The only thing that sounds better are my old open-design Sennheisers, but that's an entirely different category of headphones.

@fribbledom Sweet! Glad your purchase has worked out nicely.(And, wishlisted them for myself on the off-chance I come into a sum of money and/or have a surprise rich relative I didn't previously know about.)
