Philips SBCHC8440 Review

Advantages: light, smallish, built-in volume control, good sound quality
Disadvantages: crackle when moved, strange base

I bought this wireless headphone from argos for £33.99. I have only had one main issue with these headphones, and that is when i move my head slightly, the headphones lose connection, or crackle and that is only resolved by smacking the headphones or moving again. Other irritating things about this set is that the base has its own headphone jack built in, so you cant do certain things with it. the other odd thing about these is that the base uses ...
...i just found that a bit wierd. The headphones also dont give you much of a heads-up about a low battery level. when it first went dead, the headphones just died suddenly, right in the middle of an action scene in the film i was watching. I was happy with the built in volume control on the headphones as well. the headphones are comfortable to wear and the headphones are light. that is one major issue i find with some wireless headphones, is that ...

HP 400

Advantages: design, price, sound isaolation, bass-line
Disadvantages: materials, a lot of plastic, no volume controller, not competely packable

...(exeption is leather head cover), have much less weight and look much cheaper- in design and materials. But still, compared to similar headphones from other companies, Philips still has pretty good sound for the price (mine cost only 20£), though it seems that Philips is cutting off on quality. ...

Philips SPH 2000

Advantages: Good quality, nice design, confortable.
Disadvantages: Big size.

Philips SHP 2000 great headphones on right price. Few years later I was looking for headphones and i found these one. In shop was not many headphones, so i took this. It wasn't very expensive, so i though i will have it some months and it will broke down. But i was wrong, i still have it and it still working perfectly. Moreover i many times inadvertently dropped it from my table, but that did not change sound quality. Naturally if you keep dropping ...

Review of Philips SHP 2000

Comfortable, Great Priced Headphones

Advantages: Comfortable, Good Sound Quality, Good Value For Money
Disadvantages: Wire Limits It Use (in terms of distances from you and the music source)

This headphones are made by the one of the best electrical manufacturers and it definately shows! They are very well made and the quality of the material they are made out of is great. I bought this headphones off the internet around 2 months ago as a bit of a gamble, however this gamble i was to soon to find definately paid off! They are very comfortable is wear and the ear pieces are soft to the touch and cause no irritation (unlike other manufacturers). ...
...exterior noise and to total immerse you in the music you are listening to. The sound quality of these headphones is also great, there is no crackling and the reacj decent levels for the listeners. The only problem i found with these headphones was that the wire was quite short and limited the distance majorly from where the music source is, to where you are listening to it. Overall i thought these headphones were great value for money and i would ...

Review of Philips SHN 9500

Great Headphones!!!

Advantages: Snug and comfortable fit. Great bass and mids.
Disadvantages: No in-line volume control.

I haven't written a review b4. Anyway...... I have been using this headset for 2 weeks. Great bass and mid-range. Treble could have been a bit more sharp & volume is not that high enough for my liking when I plug it to my Nokia 5320 Xpress Music. But the whole story changes when I plug it to my PC. The sound is full and quite powerful. With a bit of pre-amp & equalizer tinkering, this headphone rocks!! The earcups are pretty comfortable considering ...
...wear these cans for hours without discomfort. I missed an in-line volume controller though. The 3.5mm pin is gold plated. A 6.5mm adapter (which is also gold plated) is in the bundle. I was considering to buy Sony MDR XD200. But the Sony dealers in Cochin could't deliver it in the promised time. I was loosing my patience & it was then I came across this great phones at a Planet M store. The phones costs me 1690 INR. Anyway I'd recommend this headphones ...
