Headphones & Shells

Quality of products are top notch! The level of customer service provided by Regina was above and beyond amazing!! One of the items went off track for a bit and Regina was on top of ever email I sent and was extremely responsive always offered a solution rather than being pushed off! Thank you very much!

I’m impressed - my favorite headphones

These are honestly much better than I expected. I’d go so far to say that Heavy’s are my favorite headphones ever. The battery life is excellent, the clarity and dynamic range seem to be very good as well, not that I’m really qualified to say that. I think they sound great! Another thing - they are some of the comfiest headphones around. And the noise cancellation, while not perfect, is still very good. I work with some very loud people, so it’s tough to totally drown their constant yelling out 😂. They may be designed for metal, but they’re awesome for any kind of music.

Katatonia 'The Call on the Bird' Shells

Everything about the product is great. Materials and earphones are of high quality, hard shell case is great and of equal quality. I got a few good coupons that stacked and pulled the trigger on the Heavys and definitely a solid buy. Havent dumped a ton of time into them but over the first few hours here, liking them very much. Woukd recommend to anyone.

Finally, headphones that tick all the boxes for me...

I've tried so many brands, none of them ever made me 100% happy. They either sounded good, but were uncomfortable or didn't look good. Or they were comfy but sounded terrible. These are super comfy, have an app with an equalizer so I can make them sound exactly how I want them to, plus they look sick with the custom shells. I'm so happy I finally bought them after contemplating whether they were worth it for so long... They really are. Super impressed!

Absolutly amazing

I have had my headphones for over a month and I am truly impressed with the sound. GREAT product. During the tariff issues earlier this year, the Heavys support team was in communication with me and I truly appreciate them.

Multi-Function headset

The gaming bundle replace 2 other headsets. My gaming headset and my computer headset. Best added feature. I enjoy listening to to my favorite music, as well play and work.
My only recommendation would be a dedicated mute button/switch on the cable or the mic for quicker muting.

The best headphones I've ever owned

The sound is absolutely amazing, and when I'm working and have "Hell Blocker" on, nothing disturbs me.

Very very pleased with this product

Best headphones ever!

Bought these for my wife and I, fell in love as soon as I turned them on. The sound quality is amazing, crystal clear, crisp and clean. The shells are just the cherry in top. Great quality, easy to change

Second to none!

These incredible headphones are a must have for anyone who loves listening to music!

Love the sound versatility

I really enjoy the versatility of sound these headphones provide. Solidly built, the EQ app is a good addition. I completely missed a train announcement due to these beauties, no idea what was going on. Sound remains unaffected by a bumpy bus road, a problem I had with Bose.

The Opeth shells are beautiful too.

UNREAL!!!

I was unsure about these headphones at first, mainly just because of the cost., but I had a friend reach out to me through social media and said they were worth it. And he was correct. These headphones are absolutely amazing. The sound quality is just unbelievable. I’ve tried a few different genres: and they all sound great great, but when you play metal through them, it’s obvious that they were designed for metal music. I notice a night and day difference when I switch from these to pole air pods. (I switch because I don’t wear heavy’s in the sauna so I take my AirPods instead)-and it’s a significant downgrade. The ONLY small issue I have with them is I don’t think they have true noise cancelling technology in them. BUT, we metal heads don’t listen to music quietly, so when you’re at the gym blasting The Bkack Dahlia Murder or Cattle Decapitation, the world around you ceases to exist.

Great Product

I am super happy with this purchase. The sound is clearer and loud enough to even discover little perks (a lost riff or drum here and there) within the music I have been listening for decades that I didn't noticed before with other headphones.
