Early Impressions (Rating: 5.00) Review : I decided to go with Sennheiser after using some work headphones (the $200+ "480p" model). For forty dollars, these are definitely worth it. I've had the headphones for about a week now. I wanted to go with padded earphones rather than those that "cup" your ears. Audio quality is excellent. They have ample/impressive bass for such flimsy looking headphones. I tried these with my iPod on the "Rock" EQ setting, listening to every genre: orchestral, electronic, acoustic, etcetera. Every track came through quite nicely. I'm not a hardcore audiophile, but I do like to hear my music clear and (sometimes) quite loud. So far these have delivered. I mention that these are flimsy, but in a good way. The earphones are loosely attached to the main headband, which is flexible metal. They remind me of comfortable Plantronics headsets I have used in the past, so they don't "clamp" down on your head. They fit nice and snug. The included case is a nice plus for travel - it took me a few moments to figure it out, but it comes in handy when toting the headphones from place to place. So far I am very satisfied. I listen to a wide variety of music, from downtempo and psy-trance to 50's jazz and Baroque. Everything sounds good with these, but I might be inclined to back off the bass slightly when I'm listening to Handel. They beat the pants off my Sony behind-the-neck headphones and my $80 Sony "bio-cellulose" earbud phones AND the iPod earbuds. Don't expect them to isolate you from outside sound, however. And in quiet surroundings people sitting near you will probably hear them too. But who cares?! Highly recommended. |
