Verdict
The Takstar TS-671 is a big, open home headphone with a wide soundstage for orchestral music, but it lacks bass slam and its treble can run hot.

Third-party reviews

What customers like about Takstar Ts 671

  • Enormous soundstage for an immersive, airy presentation
  • Excellent value for money, often described as a 'budget king'
  • Comfortable fit for long sessions with soft velour earpads
  • Solid, light build quality that feels durable for its price
  • Detailed and clear mids, making them great for acoustic and orchestral music
  • Features large 53mm drivers for a powerful presentation

What customers don't like about Takstar Ts 671

  • Weak bass response; lacks slam and 'rumble' for bass-heavy genres
  • High frequencies can occasionally be piercing or fatiguing
  • Hilariously large and bulky headband that may look strange in public
  • Significant sound leakage due to the fully open-back design
  • Higher impedance (120 Ohms) typically requires an amp for best results
  • Non-removable cable, which limits customization and replacement options

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.
