Sennheiser HD 595 - What a product!

Advantages: Sound quality
Disadvantages: Style

...Many weeks i decided - Sennheiser HD595. Since then and after reassuring myself of spending that money, and listening to the quality and feeling them...im a REALLY happy bunny!! Bargain hunting!------- I searched ALL over for the best price, eventually got it down, popular comparison shopping search sites did it!! You may well find well know retailers to be more expensive with these. Packaging-------- The cardboard box it came in, was so well ...
...and each ear phone would be still intact (hehe...just...don't try it!!) It also had that lovely new smell when you open it! The design is good and practical, there is just one rubber cable to the LH ear, and its well sealed. The cable quality is good and durable with a gold plated plug with adapter. Cable length is ideal; not too long or too short. So if your favourite seat isn't too far away from your hifi stack, this is perfect! It comes with a ...

Review of Sennheiser HD595

Who is Bose trying to trick

Advantages: good feel, comfortable, good mid-range, and treble
Disadvantages: Terrible garbage base that drowns out midrange and treble

There are some good things and some bad things with these headphones.First off, they are amazingly comfortable and you could wear them all day. There is very little sound leak meaning they provide very good sound insulation reducing the need for noise cancelling technology. Great because you don't need to fool around with batteries.The soundThe treble and mid range are great, it's just too bad that they are almost completely overwhelmed by a terrible ...
...base as opposed to actually playing the correct frequency. This base blasts out a range of low frequencies in an attempt to hit the one it's looking for. I beleive that phono experts refer to this as garbage base.The base and the quality and whether it hurts your head or not depends on the song you play. If you catch a bad song you end up reducing the volume to avoid spilling your brains and then find yourself straining to hear the music.This overbearing ...

Review of Bose ON-EAR

Sennheiser RS 140 Headphones

Advantages: Great build quality, nice sound output
Disadvantages: Noticeable drop-off in sound quality if you leave the room

After angling for a pair of these for my birthday, my luck was in on the day when I unwrapped my wife's present to find these staring back at me! As you'd expect with Sennheiser, the build quality is good. The base unit is well-designed and sturdy, with a couple of switches discreetly positioned at the bottom. The headphones are also well-built and comfortable, resting elegantly on the base unit's cradle to receive their charge. (The unit comes ...
...the headphones themselves is extremely simple: plug the base unit into a "sound source", click the "tuning" button on the headphones and wait until it finds the signal. However, if you're in a house with a lot of other wireless signals, you'll most likely need to choose a different "channel" using the switch on the front of the base unit to find the best signal. It should be noted that the headphone jack on the base unit is also of a good quality, ...

Review of Sennheiser RS140

Great headphones in a regular noisy environment

Advantages: Noise reduction on the move
Disadvantages: Comfort fades over time.

I had been thinking about this sort of product for a long time and decided to make the plunge this year. After reading numerous reviews of different models I eventually decided on the PXC300. I found it hard to choose because there were very mixed reviews for the same items, what someone thought brilliant, someone else thought rubbish. These were my eventual choice and I awaited my first flight with interest. I can now say that they make a tremendous ...
...make a great reduction to the engine noise. If you listen to the movie or your IPOD at a comfortable level with the noise reduction on, and then turn it off, the background noise completely drowns the music. This just shows how effective they are. Being able to listen at this queiter level is good for your ears and general tiredness. The sound quality is very reasonable. What they don't do is cut out irregular noise like people talking, tannoy announcements ...

Review of Sennheiser PXC300

Unbeleivable.

Advantages: amazing sound quality, comfort is awsome.
Disadvantages: price

Ever been to a electronics store in search for headphones for your ipod or zune and the salesman has sold you seinheisser in ear headphones and promised they were good. Then you get home and try them out and the bass is good. the volume is good. their comfort is good. well... These headphones are a whole other level above anything i have ever heard in my life !. the bass is outstanding. the volume is unbeleivable and the comfort is like somebody ...
...that but the box in filled to the brim with add-ons extras and even a case. Things like the bigger headphone extender, a cable for listning as normal, a cable for iphones (bassically the same with a mic on it) and a cleaning cloth. The case is well designed and smooth on the inside to minimise scratching. Then there's the look. its like angels have crafted a pair of godly headphone out of unicorn fur and silk. Simply amazing. the price is a little ...
