Verdict

The Takstar TS-671 is an open-back dynamic headphone featuring large 53mm drivers, an impedance of 120 ohms, and a sensitivity of 105dB. Its primary characteristics include a massive, airy soundstage and a neutral-to-bright sound signature, making it well-suited for orchestral and acoustic music. Main pros are its impressive spatial presentation, comfortable velour earpads, and exceptional value for detail-oriented listeners. However, its main cons include a noticeable lack of bass impact or 'slam,' a bulky plastic build that some find aesthetically unappealing, and high sound leakage due to the fully open design.
