As far as the luxury aspect of the headphones goes, these have it covered. The ear guides are leather. The metal housing is very attractive and classy looking. The case/pouch, a brown leather affair that looks like a change purse, is nice looking. The cable is a gold colored vinyl outside with a built in mic. The body is round, etched with fine concentric circles, and is attractive, resembling a very classy ear bud. Ergonomically, I find them comfortable to wear. Bass is where these babies really strut their stuff.  If you prefer an organic, warm sound that swings these could tickle your fancy.
