Sennheiser HD 25 SP Headphones

Advantages: Superior Sound at any level
Disadvantages: Cable a bit too short; could be a little more comfortable

...I own a pair of Sennheiser headphone that a mate of mine bought off ebay three years ago and they are just amazing. The sound quality is second to none and especially when I'm listening to the latest DVD releases. Just check the bass on these things; it's just as though I'm in the cinema when played on my portable DVD player and the sound is just deafening with no distortion from mid range to high no matter how hard you push them. Build quality is not flashy, but is durable and small and near impossible to break; just the cable is a bit short but you can get a cable extension lead to fit. IV'e tested these againgst other headphones and they come out tops and for the price, you would have to pay a lot, lot more. Highly recommended...

Sennheiser HD-25's: Ideal for Home or Pro DJ

Advantages: Comfort, Quality, Availability of spares.
Disadvantages: Cord a bit short.

...Needing a new pair of headphones, my previous pair being stood on and smashed by a drunken me, I searched on-line and in the shops and decided upon the Sennheiser HD25?s. They were certainly not the cheapest on offer, at the top end of my budget coming in at just under £125 from Superfi about 6 months ago. (I have seen them online now for £99 at Djstore.co.uk) I am not a DJ, nor do I profess to be, but I selected these since they appear very hard wearing, and offer exceptional hi-fi sound quality with comfort. Upon removal from the box, I was delighted with the overall professional build quality; ?made in Ireland? was silk-screened on the headband, I would have thought they would have been made in Deutschland! Every part of the headphones appears interchangeable, drive units, pads, cable and headband, certain on-line stores can...

Sennheiser HD-25

Advantages: Amazing quality, volume and comfort
Disadvantages: not really attractive - but functional, drains battery on portable devices

...These headphones are pretty much industry standard for DJ's and sound engineers alike. I've heard from some friends that they're not that great if you're producing/mastering tracks but in terms of listening - they're are the dogs proverbials. Amazing frequency responce at both ends and incredible volume with no distortion. I've used these at home, at parties and in bars whilst DJing and i've never struggled to hear over a soundsystem with them on. I also use them very often with my MP3 player and you can forget sound cancelling when you're on the train - these are such a snug fit that all exterior sound is drowned out or blocked. (not safe - look where you're going and wait for the green man before you cross the road). Generally they dont look that exciting but when u spend £100 on headphones you're probably after quality...

Sennheiser HD 555

Advantages: plays well and has a 2 year warranty
Disadvantages: maybe uncomfortable to some users

...Three months ago when i was looking for a better headsets for my Sony portable CD player, i was doing a lot of research on the internet until i came across the Sennheiser HD 555 which moved me and i decided to make a try with it. This headphones which were not so cheap could provide me exactly with the sound quality i was dreaming for a longtime. This headphone is punchy in the bottom-end and slightly rolled-off extensions in the uppermost highs. You can use it basically with any MP3 play, iPods, computers and portable CD players and its light weight and has a 8.5 oz. It has this design that makes it fits well in the ears and gives you a lot more of comfort and better sound quality. Its treble, bass, vocal you hear from the music that comes out of it is perfect that you feel you are present in the studio for the production of the music...

Sennheiser HD 595 - What a product!

Advantages: Sound quality
Disadvantages: Style

...There is something that puts you right off your cup of tea when you think of spending more than £60 on a pair of headphones!! I reviewed many quality brands, ranging from Sennheiser, Sony, Bose, Panasonic, Beyer, Grado, B&O (apoligize in boring u... believe me i can!!) All i wanted was a pair that sounded great, and looked halfway stylish. After 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 built that a Jewson's delivery lorry could...

Sennheiser HD 20. Value for money.

Advantages: Great sound, durable, cheap.
Disadvantages: Lacks the range that some higher end headphones can provide. Not always loud enough.

...Great pair of headphones if your on a budget. Sennheiser are known for their quality built headphones and these are no exception. I originall bought them to plug into my amp and listen to my electric guitar "quietly". They performed pretty well at this and handled the low basses without distorting. The only slight downside is that they weren't very loud. I'm not one for really loud headphones, but when these reach a certain threshold of volume they start to distort a bit. Under most circumstances this is fine, but sometimes I find myself needing a touch more volume out of these. I also use them now for listening to music and playing games on my PC. The headphones sound absolutely great for both music and gaming and the sound quality is really crisp. The only difference you'l notice between these and an expensive pair...

industrial strength headphones

Advantages: light, good sound quality,good design
Disadvantages: expensive, annoying cable tangle

...I bought a set of these headphones for primarily using for DJing. They are very expensive compared to your average set of headphones as they cost with little change from £90. The headphones are of industrial standard as every component is replaceable. This means they are very well designed as the headphones cable themselves plug into the speaker units so when a cable connection breaks you can replace just the lead, if a head phone breaks you can replace just one. I have had these headphones for 3 years and they are still going strong. This is excellent, as I seem to break other manufacturers headphones very easily before purchasing this set. The sound quality is reasonable as they are suited to DJing. The only drawback I find is that the cable always seems to curl up and gets tangled which is a pain when mixing and having to...

Audiophile headphones at a reasonable price

Advantages: Great sound quality, comfortable
Disadvantages: Long cable, large connector, slight lack of bass

... Introduction Sennheiser are a well known name in the music industry in terms for high quality, producing mainly headphones and microphones, both for businesses and personal use. The HD555s are one of Sennheiser's "audiophile" offerings according to the website, sitting between the HD515 and the HD595. Currently selling for £69.99, these are hardly the cheapest headphones, but with so many rave reviews around I decided it was worth at least trying them out. Features Most of the headphones specifications go straight over my head, so instead I'll quote the features list: " * Enjoy music in a completely new way: ?Eargonomic acoustic refinement? (E.A.R.) design channels the audio signal directly into your ears * Advanced Duofol diaphragm technology almost eliminates standing waves inside the capsule * Optimized...

Sennheiser CX300 - a great upgrade earphone

Advantages: Great sound clarity, very comfortable
Disadvantages: Higher frequencies not as refined as other earphones

...Listening to music... a great British pastime, and something I enjoy every day. It comes as no surprise, mainly because it has been said many times before, that the earphones bundled with the iPod, or any MP3 player, are not brilliant. The iPod earphones are better then most, but for a small investment you can get a lot more music for your money. Sennheiser are well known for their high quality offerings, but this needn't break the bank. Their CX300 earphones weigh in at under £20 and are available in either black, white or silver. They come supplied nicely packaged with small, medium and large ring adaptors for a comfortable fit. Of the three colours I really like the black, which are accented with silver rings. Being the in-ear type of headphone, comfort is very important. Out of all the earphones I have tried, these win...
