I read the reviews and this is anything but neutral. Is very bass oriented, so mids and treble are recessed. Not a good item for studio monitoring or otherwise. Good for the gym, if you only listen to bass-heavy music and don't care about vocals.
Had these a few years ago, trash. Very blended sound and muddy. I have westone and shure and these shouldn't be considered even for the price. The shure se215 blows these away for the compared price. Stay away from

How does this compare to the similarly priced KZ wired headphones?

Can these get really really loud if I buy a pocket amp? Can't wear large headphones during cardio

Reviews shows these fail due to cord issue and common problem with the right side going out...sometimes in 6 months in most cases a year

Not this exact model, but mine looked identical. Premature cord failure. Sounded great while they worked.

I'm sure some audio enthusiast will correct me with some nitpick but I'm sure these would be fine for playing games.

As long as there is a built-in mic, it will work.

I personally have the Meelectronics version, which I love for audio books on my dinky little prepaid phone with an analog audio jack.

I know westone has finally gotten their stuff together in the last year or 2, but is this like some more mainstream line of products w/ a lower end consumer tuning?

Yes. I love Westone, but their cheap end is...cheap.
