Verdict

The Brainwavz HM100 is a pair of closed-back studio monitor headphones featuring large 52mm dynamic drivers, a wide frequency response of 10Hz to 40kHz, and an impedance of 64 ohms. Known for their distinct retro aesthetic, they utilize real walnut wood ear cups and come with an extensive accessory bundle including a hard carrying case, both 1.3m and 3m detachable cables, and two sets of ear pads (pleather and velour). Main pros include a neutral and well-balanced sound signature that provides excellent clarity and a surprisingly wide soundstage for a closed design, along with high comfort levels for long listening sessions. However, notable cons include their bulky, non-folding size that limits portability, a relatively heavy weight of approximately 350g-394g, and some reports of inconsistent build quality regarding the plastic adjustment sliders.
