When I’ve tried some handcrafted headphones from Saint-Petersburg for the first time, I was surprised by the attention to details, by the build quality itself, by the number of accessories found in the package, by its affordable price point, but the biggest surprise was experiencing that unforgettable sound signature. I’ve tried multiple closed-back headphones from major headphone manufacturers in the past and although I liked few of them, neither one sounded extremely enjoyable and punchy as Magni did for me. From an unknown headphone manufacturer to me, Kennerton plunged high and even surpassed some of the brands I considered world-class.
Magni sounded highly entertaining, offered explosive dynamics and a faster pace too. They also measured greatly considering their closed-back nature. It was clear as the blue sky that those targeted music lovers first, as with them I wanted only to listen to music with eyes closed and let the imagination go wild, as opposed to writing a 10-page review about them, which of course happened much later on.
