What customers say about "Size & Weight"

PSB Speakers M4U-1 High Performance Over-Ear Headphones

If you have an average to small hat size and want great sound quality for the price, these could be a great choice.
The comfort level improves after a few hours, letting you forget their on your head.
They are light on my head and have perfect bass.
Large size even when folded in its case.
I have an average sized adult male head. These take the cake on discomfort for me.

PSB Speakers M4U-2 Noise Cancelling Over-Ear Headphones

Comfort is very good. Despite their bulk, they are very comfortable. Really good size.
Superb sound, and comfortable (even though I have a big head).
Fits well both on my smaller head and my brother's large head (a rare find in the regard).
They are comfortable, but have to be adjusted more than I would like, but I have a small head.
They did not fit well (I have an average/medium sized head).

What customers say about "Features"

PSB Speakers M4U-1 High Performance Over-Ear Headphones

There is a feature I like to use in my home studio, the interchangeable cord.
The being able to switch the cord between sides is handy.
Besides the seemingly transparent audio playback, another fantastic feature is the passive noise reduction with these.
They really help to block out background noise without traditional active noise reduction technology.
Also, the PSB M4U headphones are comfortable and the removable cord is a great feature.

PSB Speakers M4U-2 Noise Cancelling Over-Ear Headphones

When you turn on the noise cancelling (NC) feature, this really boosts the signal.
The mids are smooth and roll off beautifully. The bass is well controlled and doesn't muddy or interfere the mids.
There is a built in amp you can turn on without activating the noise cancellation. This can be useful if your source lacks a good power amp.
They can be used when your batteries run dry. This is a very important feature as you won't be left with a dead headphone when on the move.
The only abysmal con I could even come up with is that you need to carry batteries in the provided case.
